2 for 1 deals...help?

[Milaandra]

I have such a hard time getting around the Cunard website. Someone explain the deal with the 2 for 1 special on this month? It looks like it's available on transatlantics...

Wish I could find it! It should be accessible to me down here in England. Scotland hasn't seceded yet.

 

All I can find is one night in New York free on a TA.

Its on the Cunard Canadian page at the same url as Salacia provided the link.

 

But the prices are nothing new. I have bookings now for January 3 and January 10 and the prices at '2 for 1' are exactly the same prices I am already booked at. It would be nice if they were a better deal. ;)

:D

 

I'm still Canadian when it comes to booking cruises and getting email notifications of sales...

Thanks, all. Shame it's 50% off the early booking prices.

Yes, 50% of getaways, now that's what I would call an offer.

Hi Balf. I don't understand. What I'm reading is 50% off Early Booking Fares (not 50% off Getaway Fares which are not available on this side of the pond anyway). The offer is for inside cabins, double occupancy on select voyage, which seems rather limited to me. But yes, its an offer - question being, is it a good offer? I've been booked on my next QM2 voyages for many months, final payment has passed. No looking back for me. I certainly hope others find a good deal and sail Cunard happily and often.:) Cheers, -S.

SEFlyer.....I too have booked the January 3 QM2 and the January 10 on QE cruises. I am looking forward to the wonderful Cunard services and experience on both ships. Perhaps we shall all meet during one of the cruises. judyjdl

Yes, I got the ad this week.I'm interested in the NY to San Francisco Voyage. It's getting that length of time off to go is my problem.

Keith, I'd like to take that voyage too, but to get that amount of consecutive days off work is very difficult in this country, except for those who are independently wealthy, or retired with free time, able to avail themselves of flash sales. Which makes me wonder what will happen as Cunard shifts its focus to a younger audience.

As winter is our slow season(and my brother takes many MORE days off than me)I'm kind of putting him to the old grind stone! Plus the fact I turn 60 & Richard & I have our 20 year aniversary in 2014 makes a guilt trip on my brother a little more obvious! He owns the catering company, but my investment helped stave off finacial ruin back in 2009.
