Warthog01 Posted September 2 #1 Share Posted September 2 My wife and I are cruising to the Med and Adriatic on Queen Anne, Queens Grill from Sep 22 to Oct 11. Can anyone recommend best clothing to pack? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Hattie Posted September 2 #2 Share Posted September 2 From My Cunard there's a link to the What to pack section of the website. Hopefully that will help. The dress codes only apply after 6pm. I've moved your question to the Cunard board where I'm sure you'll get lots of answers. Have a great cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exlondoner Posted September 2 #3 Share Posted September 2 Once you are past Portugal, it should be warm or even hot during the day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rakkor Posted September 2 #4 Share Posted September 2 It will be warm but there's a possibilty of rain, it was chucking it down in Lisbon last October, Blog Entry for Lisbon, a first for us, and with no decent wet weather gear we never made it of the Ship but the rest of the cruise was glorious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim_Iain Posted September 2 #5 Share Posted September 2 Our experience has been that after mid-September the temperatures especelly the evening temperatures drop. The norm if you google on temperatures for say Lisbon - September 80F/63 with 3 days of rain October 73F/53 with 8 days of rain Depending on were in the Adriatic the temperatures may be cooler. Also will be cooler while at sea. I would plan on packing with a layered look where you can take off or put on extra layers to your comfort level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rog747 Posted September 3 #6 Share Posted September 3 It's gonna most likely be nice and warm for you. Risk of TSs at that time of year though. A warm water cruise! If this is your first time in Grills: (you will love it) In QG for breakfast and lunch most ladies are dressed quite smart casual and it is OK polo-shirt and nice shorts are fine for men. Evenings tend to be be dressier in QG with the ladies looking wonderful, and on Gala (Formal) nights 99% of men dressed in black-tie (Tuxedo). On deck, or on Tour/ashore in the day times dress to be comfortable! There are free Launderettes on the ship (not on all the decks though) and the laundry wash sheets are provided. You do not need beach towels. A pareo is handy to put on to go from Grills Terrace walking to the pools or to pop down to the Buffet etc. Plenty of nice towels in your bathroom) changed twice a day if you wish) Plenty of boxes of tissues. The toiletries are quality Penhaligon and are very nice and mild with Hand soap, shower/bath gel, shampoo, conditioner and body lotion - all are in filled large pumps (No throwaways) If you prefer a hand soap bar then take one. Ladies might want to take a better more powerful hair dryer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or like us, ask for one. I can vouch for the fact they are excellent for sensitive skin if, like me, the gorgeous Quercus is too perfumed. Ladies might want to take a better more powerful hair dryer.
