Are binoculars provided ?

[LimaSierra]

Sailing soon on the QM2. The brochure indicates that the Queens Suites are provided with binoculars..........is this a fact? One less thing to pack.

Thanks for your reply.

didn't find any in our suite, but to be honest I hadn't read about there being any so didn't look. We bought a pair in Gibraltar as we had forgotten to pack any. We had been discussing the fact that we had forgotten ours with others who were in QG and none of them mentioned the fact that there were some in the suites.

The brochure shows pictures of them in the forward suites on deck 10.

Isn't there a difference between QG cabins and QG suites? Perhaps only the real big suites get the binoculars...

Probably need them in there so they can watch the TV while they're in bed. :D

There, there, kitty. Seems you found your pounce.

 

If I recall correctly, it used to list binoculars and umbrellas on the Accommodations page for QG on the website. But now it has been removed. Perhaps too many people thought they had been left behind by the previous occupants and gave them a new home?

Now, see - I considered that one but I didn't use it. Old Bob's not such a bad ole boy and I didn't want to dredge up ancient conflicts. :)

And I considered it, and did use it. Being a furball has certain advantages.

Found the umbrella in the wardrobe, but didn't find any binoculars :)

When the ship first sailed I do remember there was a pair in that little bookshelf near the bar..but have never seen a pair since,Im sure people just took them much like they take the soaps ect and after a few replacements Cunard said enough!

I was in a QG stateroom on Deck 9 of QM2 and they had binoculars supplied, this was in June 2009

Not long till your back on board Arcadia again Captain, nice to finish and start the year at sea once again.

Yes it is

Yes it is

 

After so much time at sea, do you have a problem ajusting to life back on dry land.

[capnpugwash]

No. You're very chatty today?

[stopgo]

Well it's not very often I get one to one with you, in fact when your not at sea don't really hear much from you.

We've just got off the QM2 and were in a Q6 - no binoculors were provided. Fortunately, we had brought our own. Maybe they all had them originally and they have not replaced them when they have gone missing! Sue
