Hi Paul! Good to see another local memeber here.

I'm pleased to see your started you've own roll call for your trip!

I am going on my very first voyage this November on QM2 for the 2 night cruise, when I started my roll call I was the only one, now plenty of other memebers are going, so I'm sure you'll find the same.

Enjoy your time here at Cruise Line Fans and be sure to check out the various other forums here!

THANKS THE REPLY HARRY
WE ARE STAYING AT THE HOLIDAY INN THE NIGHT BEFORE WE SAIL
SO WE WILL BE ABLE TO SEE THE QUEEN VICTORIA AND TWO P&O
SHIPS SAIL .I WILL LET YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK OF THE QM2 AND
GIVE YOU A FEW TIPS READY FOR YOUR SAILING

KIND REGARDS PAUL

Always a good idea to stay near by the night before. I'll be doing the same but at a family friend's house.

I always enjoy watching ships sail, I should be off to Southampton next Friday and Saturday to see 7 sail. Sadly I couldn't arrange anything to get aboard one of them for a look this time. But I will be touring Queen Victoria and meeting the Captain on August 15th. I'm really looking forward to it.

I'd love to hear what your thoughts of Queen Mary 2 were once you've returned home.

we were on the queen victoria in november for 16 nights went to venice
fantastic ship not very good in rough weather nearly lost 2 bottles of wine
from the dressing table and our balcony door kept opening and closing
all night long in the morning i found the leaver that i could have locked
the door with

Good job a wave didn't get in your cabin!

I've been waiting a long time to get aboard Queen Victoria, it's taken quite a while for me to get this invitation.

Queen Mary 2 still has to be my favourtie and of course is designed for rough seas!

Hi, I am sure you will have no problems with QM2 in bad weather. Kings Court is not as nice as the Lido on QV and the theatre is not as good. I think you will like QM2, she is a beautiful ship

I did like the lido on qv is the kings court smaller

It's not smaller, but less open so it does not seem as easy to find a seat. It is nice to sit in a window seat and watch people walking by on the real teak decks.

My husband and I are traveling on that voyage with our 4 year old (turning 5 mid voyage). Very excited to utilize the champagne bar!!!!!!
