Did Anyone Else Receive a Cunard Survey?

I got one, too. It mostly offered different cruises and asked if I would be interested in them. There were several Caribbean cruises departing from ports like Jamaica or Barbados.

Mine was largely sample Caribbean itineraries sailing from Jamaica or other various islands.

I answered all the same “inconvenient departure Port”.

Not sure why they seem so intent on operating standard itineraries easily homeported in Port Everglades or Miami out of Jamaica with limited airlift.

Not appealing to me.

I at least got to cast my vote for formality and fixed dining however!

For non-US residents, it might be very appealing not to have to deal with US immigration.

Valid point exlondoner and flying out of UK to one of these islands likely has decent non stop airlift as a bonus.

But if the intended passenger base is not American they sure were trying to convince me anyway.

I wonder which ship would be dedicated to these sailings? I’m thinking QV.

I think if Cunard puts a ship on itineraries in the Caribbean, whether they start from the US or from an island, I'm betting it will be QA, because she's the newest and biggest, Just what we crass Americans supposedly want in a cruise. 

 

I hope I'm wrong. I would LOVE to see QE on some East Coast cruises. I would fly to Barbados to take a Caribbean cruise on QE.

QA would certainly seem logical from the marketing perspective, I never expected to see her assigned to a World cruise so hard to say just what Cunard thought process is.

Assuming there is a thought process.

 

I wonder if they're sending her around the world to see which markets book most quickly or the most cabins. Feedback from the maiden season may help determine her future deployment.
