Price Dropped- can I get a change?

I was part of a group of twelve friends on QM2 a few years back. We all had Britannia Grade balcony cabins.

 

As we were all friends we dined together (evenings. Went our separate ways in smaller groups for breakfast and lunch).

 

We did this as we booked as a group. No-one felt the need to elevate themselves and book a different grade of accommodation. No "them and us" atmosphere (I think if any of us had done so, we wouldn't still be friends, and planning yet another group cruise).

 

After we had enjoyed this group cruise, several booked other Cunard cruises. In Princess or Queens Grill suites.

 

And that is what I would advise; travel on this trip as a group all in one grade of accommodation. Then book a future cruise in Queens Grill just for yourself.

 

Whilst in Queens Grill it may be possible to "dine down" on one night (this has been done in the past), I doubt it would be welcome on a regular/frequent basis. As for passengers "dining up", I've never heard of this. And "greasing" a maitre 'd could be seen as very insulting.

 

In short, I'm not sure I understand why one would book as part of a group, and then separate oneself from the group?

 

Best wishes and happy sailing whatever you do :)

 

Sage advice, Pepper. It seems the most logical approach to me as well.

 

BorisDore, it will be no hardship for you to sail again! Have a wonderful time--again and again!
