Cunard at Christmas: Highlights

[AspirationalFlyer]

Hello everyone, 

 

I’m booked on the Queen Elizabeth Xmas Cruise to Bruges from 14-17 December. Is anyone else? 

 

As a millennial, one of my questions is, of course, what are the highlights likely to be from a picture taking perspective? Which things onboard are likely to look best on our social media accounts and make all our friends envious?!?

 

I was thinking: 

 

- Christmas Tree in the Grand Lobby

- Gingerbread Village 

- Christmas cocktails 

 

Anything else? In your experience, are there any ‘must do’ experiences on a Cunard Xmas cruise? 

 

It it would be great to hear from you.

We did a Christmas Market cruise a few years ago on QV.

 

I think it was 12 days in total. The decorations and gingerbread village didn't appear until 19 December.

 

Surprisingly, there was no Christmas Fayre food-wise and we were told that the only day Christmas lunch/dinner is offered is 25 December.

 

Luckily, as we were in QG, with the help of a pen and note pad, I wrote  our menu and a couple of days later had a lovely Christmas dinner complete with pudding and flaming brandy sauce.

 

I don't know if that is still the case. Perhaps someone who has been more recently can advise.

There should be a gingerbread village and trees in every public room.
