Certainly not on the 3 voyages since September 21, that we have taken. Yes, the little black diamond used to be top right of card. Annoyingly, on our Med trip, there were a few taking advantage of the facilities! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majortom10 Posted May 3, 2022 #479 Share Posted May 3, 2022 (edited) We didnt have a black diamond on our key cards on QE in November 2021. Edited May 3, 2022 by majortom10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're lucky, I have yet to receive such an email. I can tell you that the maiden voyage is sold out on the Australian website in both the PG and QG categories. Are they set aside and not being sold, or already 'pre-sold' somehow? Quite the mystery. I note that in the past, some voyages were not available to view on the Australian website (such as special themed voyages - music; theatre) at a time when they were being discussed on this board and therefore being accessed by potential passengers in other parts of the world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cunard have history in posting QG cabins as sold out on WC segments when in fact, the cabins hadn't been released for the particular segments we were interested in. These cabins were definitely not sold out as they were available to full world bookings and they were released in dribs and drabs as time went on. I can only think on QA's maiden cruise, the cabins aren't sold out but either haven't been released yet or will be on hold at the moment for '' suits '' and others.

richard_london Posted May 4, 2022 #486 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Now that they have announced the initial Queen Anne voyages Cunard have updated her page with the deck plans. I know there some thought these might not be genuine, but to be sure they can be found here: https://www.cunard.com/en-gb/cruise-ships/queen-anne/0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard_london Posted May 4, 2022 #487 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Just having a look for the first time, I can't see any single cabins listed on the Queen Anne web page in any of the categories or on any page of the deck plans. If that is the case, that is disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And not just by email. My mailbox had 3 items all centred on the Queen Anne Maiden cruise sailing on 4 January 2024 and the subsequent sailings. The 'Maiden' is a 7 nighter with one port of call, overnight in Lisbon. I'd registered my interest by 09.05 this morning. See y'all onboard I guess.

omah1975 Posted May 4, 2022 #489 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Interesting to see that the maiden voyage is in the first week of January in 2024, I guess that means she'll arrive in Southampton (I assume) around Christmas time 2023 for the naming ceremony. I live close to Southampton so if the weather is not too bad I might go and see her arrive for the first time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majortom10 Posted May 4, 2022 #490 Share Posted May 4, 2022 As usual I have received nothing from Cunard by e-mail have looked at my preferences on my account and they are all set to receive communications by e-mail, text or post and have repeatedly asked Cunard on their Facebook page why I dont receive e-mails. All they say is we will pass it on to the relevant department but nothing ever changes. We are very close to being Diamond in CWC but I am thoroughly disappointed in Cunard. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get them either and have given up trying to sort it out. Luckily, I get them second hand, via my husband which is slightly amusing as I am the lead passenger on any Cunard booking. All snail mail communication comes addressed to me though so go figure. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have now e-mailed the executive officer office see what they do or even if they respond. After my last contact with them regarding selling of FCDs to US passengers but not UK passengers the last e-mail I sent them they just totally ignored me so not holding out much hope.

Both state "twin for sole use" and "limited single availability". If this is correct it's very much a retrograde step by Cunard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schattenfell71 Posted May 4, 2022 #495 Share Posted May 4, 2022 I guess it will be nearly impossible to get tickets for this voyage. They told me that the QE maiden voyage was sold out in 20 minutes. I will try to get a cabin on this voyage but my hopes are not very high. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have same issue, ie. not receiving anything from Cunard. Discussed with team whilst onboard QE in Feb and March, and have sent emails to them, and made phone calls. Still nothing sorted. Used to get emails and post but for some reason it stopped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They keep on about White Star Service but obviously I am not the only one they seem to be failing. Or is it a case of arrogance on Cunard's part that the regular cruisers will carry on cruising with them however bad they are treated. Think they might be in for a shock. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, this will be the only Cunard ship without any single cabins. Some of the other lines (such as Celebrity) have been including a fair number of single cabins on their newest ships.
