travel-to-go Posted December 24, 2005 #103 Share Posted December 24, 2005 They're still doing it... OH, QE2 w4nks, we've let you do your games and laughed at you. Stop it now. Oh, Jack! What ARE you on about! Sometimes I think we speak different languages! I can figure out half of what you posted. And I'm guilty of cranking up the QE2 posts, even though I will be on the QM2! Just because people post interesting stuff and I respond! I don't really think about how many hits it gets! But if you prefer to think of it that way! Now, how many people l think Jack keeps posting these short silly little inanities to get his numbers up to-... whatever the next step above cool cruiser is! (JACK! DON'T DO IT! Then you won't be COOL any more! Even in the Sherwood Forest! <G>) Karie Ooops. maybe I should have posted this one over on the QM2 thread- So we can keep up, you know! <BEG> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calliope Posted December 24, 2005 Author #106 Share Posted December 24, 2005 Careful, Jack, I'm one of those QE2 people that are daft enough to brave a winter North Atlantic crossing! Forget about the chest, but my left ear is already the pierced one. I guess that I better not wear the ear ring till after we 'round the Horn.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackatsea Posted December 24, 2005 #107 Share Posted December 24, 2005 I would be privileged to be your "mate" Fact is... there's a game on, which I didn't know I was part of. It's a bit like laughing at somebody who's laughing at everybody who doesn't care about who's laughing... so who's next 4 a laugh or shall we LOOP or go around the HORN and forget this minor "fart game"??

jimneycrkit Posted December 24, 2005 #110 Share Posted December 24, 2005 I'm on Santiago to Los Angeles leg this February. I talked with res today and they insist I must have this dreadful shot, else I will not be allowed to board without a doctor's waiver letter. This is so absurd and totally unecessary considering our itinerary. We have been all over Latin America- Iguazu, and Amazon, etc and never needed this. Actually, there were no mosquitoes, just fleas in the market in Manaus. And on this board, I see conflicting statements. Can anyone tell me how to get beyond this? Barb I finally decided to just to have doctor friend of mine do a waiver. It is ridiculous. Cunard told me it was becasue Ecuador required it. I looked . They don't so instead I just decided on an note. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackatsea Posted December 24, 2005 #111 Share Posted December 24, 2005 These people are taking the p... Horners, for the last 6 month's at least they've been "hooking us" Awe, feck Who cares, except maybe "ntb" thread, if that was part of the scam, then I give it over to the OsamaQE2 crowd, win at any costs who cares who wins. How can you do this to people? So crap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackatsea Posted December 24, 2005 #112 Share Posted December 24, 2005 Last post, I'm probably "scored" as part of the game (if so, take 30+ off and suck ..it) ... such a crap ending as I believe most posts to this board to be up front and NOT including games. Not the first time I've been fu***d over, probably won't be tha last. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackatsea Posted December 24, 2005 #113 Share Posted December 24, 2005 Careful, Jack It's not me that needs to be careful, playing games with people often backfires. Hopefully, you're not part of the "QE2 game" that's been stalking the CC board. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RagPark Posted December 27, 2005 #115 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Hi all, Sorry for butting in like this but now that Xmas is dealt with my wife and I can now look forward to our Rio - Santiagi & 'round the horne trip. I'm so pleased there's such a thriving and eager community surrounding this experience. My first cruise as such and so the excitement is building. Reading this thread through is immensely valuable; thank you. Hope you all have a wonderful time - I know we will. I'll certainly have fun guessing who on board has posted here! Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailsalot Posted December 27, 2005 #116 Share Posted December 27, 2005 I'm curious what people's thoughts are on possible shore excursions for the portion of the trip of Rio to Valparaiso. Has anyone booked excursions yet, or will you just wait until you get onboard the ship? Any insights as to which excursions are not to be missed? Thanks! I can't believe this trip is already around the corner, 10 months after being booked. Finally!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medon Posted December 28, 2005 #117 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Anyone on the London to Rio flight via Paris at the end of January? Worked out that from leaving home to boarding the QM2 it will be almost a 24 hour trip for us from Derby! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagPark Posted December 29, 2005 #118 Share Posted December 29, 2005 We're on a London to Rio flight, Jan 26th to pick up QM2. Didn't know the flight was via Paris :( Virgin airlines right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medon Posted December 29, 2005 #119 Share Posted December 29, 2005 No Air France...you are direct. What time your flight, ours is something like 2300 from Paris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagPark Posted December 30, 2005 #120 Share Posted December 30, 2005 2205 from Heathrow, into Rio 0740 local time. And you're right - direct with Virgin. How long and protracted is the embarkation process likely to take? What's the procedure exactly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medon Posted December 30, 2005 #121 Share Posted December 30, 2005 We didn't book until Oct so if we had booked the Cunard flight with Virgin we would have to had a night in Rio cos thats the late deal - a hotel the night before cruise. Also we could only get a inside cabin because the cruise is full , still sure it will be ok. We land around the same time so I don't know what they do with you until boarding time! We have only ever travelled from Southampton with Cunard (or any line come to that) Was on QM2 in April transatlantic to NY and boarding was straight on at 12.30 but I don't know what it will be like in Rio. We did not fancy staying in Rio hence the AF flights. Don't know if you have been on QM2 before but it's a super ship and you will love her. We had a hull balcony last time but the weather was not so good so we could not really use it. Now on this trip a balcony would have been nice. There is a waiting list for upgrading so that will not happen. We did try to upgrade the flight to business class but AF wanted £1350 each extra!

eatsallinsects Posted January 7, 2006 #122 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Bringing subject forward. A week from tomorrow (Sunday) is THE day! We had our 4 HEAVY bags picked up by DHL yesterday (Friday) and HOPE to see them next in our cabin! We are flying from DFW to Milwaukee, then NYC via Midwest Airlines next Saturday. EXCITEMENT!

RagPark Posted January 10, 2006 #124 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Hi guys This being my first major cruise the whole process is something of a new experience. Thing is, 2 weeks before the off, sheds loads of cash doled out and no tickets in sight. Plenty of jazzy brochures from Cunard but I can't see that carrying much weight with the Port Authorities. Is this normal? I'm no virgin traveller and usually my agents and the operators have this stuff cold well before now. I'm not worrying, right?:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackatsea Posted January 10, 2006 #125 Share Posted January 10, 2006 If you booked through a travel agent, Cunard will send the tickets to them rather than you. Mine turned up 4th Jan for 15th Jan departure. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
