Host Caroline Posted July 6, 2004 #2 Share Posted July 6, 2004 It is very hot in the Med in July and August! And no air conditioning in some public buildings. Go prepared for hot sun and crowds in port as this is prime vacation time for Europeans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivienne-j Posted July 9, 2004 #3 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Hi - I have a work colleague who will be on the same sailing as you. She isn't into these boards, so I wonder if you could answer a question for her. We've got our docs for our Star Princess Med sailing in a couple of weeks, but she hasn't had anything apart from some labels for her suitcases. She says she contacted Princess, and they said that's all she gets. Is this true? Bear in mind she's also from the UK, and sailing from Southampton. Do they just compare her passport with the passenger list? We had heaps of info to fill in for our cruise, so I'm a bit dubious, but I wonder if Cunard does things differently. Thanks for your help Vivienne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2dream4 Posted July 10, 2004 Author #4 Share Posted July 10, 2004 I have been reading the cruise critic for several months now, and have seen comments indicating that some do not get theri crusing documents from Cunard as late as one week before the cruise ! Based upon comments I have read, I am not going to gt nervouse until one week approaches...if I still do not have anything from Cunard, they will be hearing from me post haste !

vivienne-j Posted July 11, 2004 #7 Share Posted July 11, 2004 How many pools are there on the QE2? My colleague thinks there's only one, down in the depths somewhere. Is she looking at out-of-date deck layouts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2dream4 Posted July 11, 2004 Author #8 Share Posted July 11, 2004 I know there is a pool inside on one of the vewest decks. There is also a pool on the ( sun deck? ) I believe.... I know there is an inside and an outside pool ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
