Jonem2001 Posted January 24, 2022 #51 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Hello ‘bluemarble’, I am sailing on M205G, the ‘back end’ of the QM2’s short round trip to Hamburg next month. I can therefore plug a gap for you, although I’m not sure it’s much help! I have the following information given: Feb 13th - Embarkation Day, Smart Attire Feb 14th - At Sea, Gala Evening (no theme listed). I can also see Feb 12th in ‘My Cunard’ as that is the day we have flights booked to connect with embarkation the following day. That is also listed as ‘Gala Evening’ with no specific theme, which you have already on your tracker. Given the timeframe (less that three weeks to go!), I’ll be interested to see if a theme is added for the 14th closer to the departure. But I suspect as it’s Valentine’s Day the theme may well be ‘just don’t clash with the heart balloons’ or whatever Cunard put up. If any members who have previously sailed over a Valentine’s gala evening can enlighten (warn?) me as to what to expect based on prior sailings, I’d be grateful - I’m in Queen’s Grill should that matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluemarble Posted January 24, 2022 Author #52 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Thanks for the update, @Jonem2001. All contributions, even small ones, are much appreciated. During past years, Valentine's Day has usually been during world or exotic voyages. On past dress code schedules I have, sometimes it has been observed with a Valentine's Ball theme. Don't know if they would try that theme on your cruise since it's not part of a world or exotic voyage this year. If they do, that theme has been easy to comply with. The description I have for the Valentine's Ball theme is the same as a regular Gala Evening with this one addition: "Attire should include a piece of red clothing". Since we've started a new browser page, I'll repeat the links to the master dress code and theme schedules here for easy access.

DPWnRBW Posted January 28, 2022 #53 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Thank you, Blue Marble. We are on the Feb. 15-22 crossing on the QM2. As of today, the Feb. 20 formal night does not show a theme on mycunard.com. It only shows "gala evening". Feb. 15 still shows "Black and White". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonem2001 Posted January 28, 2022 #54 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Hi again @bluemarble, I should have also added this when I gave you the QM2 details for February, but I’m also on the QE on Q209P to Amsterdam starting March 30th. The only gala night on that cruise is April 1st, with a ‘Black and White’ theme. The two nights either side are ‘Smart Attire’. Your hard work on these lists, and your feedback on what is likely or not, is hugely appreciated! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nu327 Posted February 6, 2022 #55 Share Posted February 6, 2022 I'll be in QE in May, ad for the night of 20th there's no theme schedulled for the gala. Do I have to expect an update, or is it possible to have an unthemed gala evening? Looking at the schedule that has been posting... maybe it will become a b&w night?? Thanks for the help!!!

There are unthemed Gala Evenings. In prior years when there were three Gala Evenings on each 7-night QM2 crossing, the middle one was unthemed. That said, the rotation of themes for the May 2022 QE cruise would indeed tend to indicate the Gala Evening on May 20th ought to have a Black and White theme rather than having no theme. The dress code schedules do sometimes change once on board and they are occasionally updated beforehand in "My Cunard". For now though, what "My Cunard" shows in the day-by-day calendar section for your voyage is the authority. If you see something different in "My Cunard" compared to the dress code/theme schedules I've posted here on this thread, please do let me know. I have no way of seeing for myself what "My Cunard" shows. Hence the gaps in the schedules for some of the voyages for which I have not yet received reports from anyone on those voyages. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About 10 days ago I learned about the dress code/theme schedule for the April 15th QE departure from that voyage's roll call. At that time I added it to the master schedule found on this thread. I also learned the previously scheduled call at Genoa on that cruise has been changed to La Spezia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't heard anything yet about the dress code and theme schedule for QV. With QV's restart just over two month's away, it would seem plausible that Cunard might have started publishing the schedules in "My Cunard" for those booked on QV voyages. How about it? Is anyone booked on a QV voyage seeing the dress code and theme schedule listed in your day-by-day calendar section of "My Cunard"? If so, please post here the dates of your voyage, which dates are going to be Gala Evenings, and what the themes (if any) will be on those Gala Evenings.

(ipad using Safari) We've had reports here and on other threads of the dress code schedules disappearing for those using the Edge browser and possibly Safari as well. When those users switched to Chrome, the schedules reappeared. If you have a way to try the Chrome browser, that might help to determine if you're running into a browser compatibility issue.

techteach Posted February 18, 2022 #65 Share Posted February 18, 2022 I’m actually glad to hear others are having the same issue. It is almost impossible to make coding work for every browser. Thanks to all for your responses. (Noticed the basics like bed configuration also is wrong) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiverlandGone Posted February 20, 2022 #67 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Following - My calendar is also blank on Firefox and Chrome. We are on Queen Victoria's first voyage after dry dock - leaving Southampton on 05 June 2022 and ending in Rome on 13 June 2022 (the Cunard website incorrectly lists dates as 04 June - 12 June!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BouncingWheel Posted February 24, 2022 #68 Share Posted February 24, 2022 It is amazing how they have managed to take their IT systems backwards instead of forwards. I didn't think they could manage it but they have. I am positive the daily calendar still works on some browser/version combination but the question is which one? Only the tester/developer will probably know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluemarble Posted March 1, 2022 Author #70 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Now that I actually have an active Cunard booking for 2022, it's disappointing to see what others have reported here. The daily calendar functionality, where the dress codes and themes are listed, seems to have gone missing. For a reminder, here is the helpful image @techteach provided back in September on another thread showing what the daily calendar is supposed to look like, with the dress code and theme indicated there. Now this is what I'm seeing today for what is supposed to be the daily calendar for our voyage. I've tried four different combinations of browsers and platforms always with the same result. Apparently there's no working day-by-day calendar functionality at the moment. Here's hoping this issue is resolved or else this project of mine to further document the dress code/theme schedules will be at a standstill. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2BACRUISER Posted March 1, 2022 #71 Share Posted March 1, 2022 @bluemarbleapparently P&O customers have same difficulties few raging about it on various posts, as I understand it they use same platform as Cunard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fair-winds39 Posted March 3, 2022 #72 Share Posted March 3, 2022 We were on a crossing from Southampton to Philadelphia, Pa. in 1982 for a special celebration on the QE2. We were formal every evening. I had two pieces of luggage and one piece was lost, and contained my formalwear. My husband had no problem. Fortunately, it was found and delivered to the Bristol Hotel 2 days before we had to leave for the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2BACRUISER Posted March 8, 2022 #73 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Just been on my Cunard to see if anything changed as i had a word with @molecrochipand he seems to have the ear of the powers that be!! Nothing has changed re dress guidance but amazingly enough i can book excursions for my August cruise!! Go figure. I also checked out the Spa and hair salon situation (all currently book onboard) but until i know which day formal nights are i cant make any plans. I'm a big planner and like to be prepared 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exlondoner Posted March 8, 2022 #74 Share Posted March 8, 2022 According to a nice lady I spoke to at Cunard this morning, the formal nights for QE departure on April 3 are: 5th Apr B+W 11 Apr R+G 13 Apr 1920s. So only three. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluemarble Posted March 9, 2022 Author #75 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Good news! The daily calendar functionality in My Cunard appears to have been corrected. Here is what mine looks like today with the dress codes and themes indicated. Is anyone on a QV voyage seeing dress codes and themes in My Cunard now? If so, please post what you are seeing and I'll start compiling a master schedule for QV. If anyone is on QM2 or QE voyages I haven't documented yet, please let me know what you are seeing for those voyages as well and I'll update those schedules. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
