Hi Ben and David it’s only me Louise – I hope you’ve had a good week and I’ll keeping well. Unfortunately I saw the multiple sclerosis nurse during the week and my multiple sclerosis has advanced even further – I’ve got the hospice team consultants coming in on Thursday to discuss pain management with me. I’m staying positive as usual – but as you know you both brighten up my Sunday evenings ~ nearly an hour to watch as well absolutely brilliant – I hope you have a great week. Sending loads of love and loads of hugs as always.~ Xxx Xxx

“Attach a propeller and call me a helicopter!” Lol it’s hilarious! We really need a compilation of these gems.

The man in the brown jacket during afternoon tea was definitely an assassin sent by MSC…

Thanks for sharing the flame from France story

HAPPY PRIDE GENTLEMEN…from NYC!! Loving this series of the Queen Mary. Am shocked about the service not going to lie, and thank you for these honest reviews!

On our last transatlantic, my wife suffered seasickness for the first time. The Seabourn crew were terrific. When the waiter asked about her he brought a basket of crystallized ginger for her. That was the answer! Now we travel with a small bag of it on every cruise. Avoids all the chemicals. Thank you Seabourn and thank you Ben and David for these great vids.

Hi guys!! It was so great meeting you at Epcot. You two were so nice and generous in letting my husband and I take a photo with you. You have no idea how thrilled I was that whole day. Keep up the great videos.

Hahahaha “junk mail from the spa”…I used to work in the spa on cruise ships. The only thing more annoying than receiving those junk mail is delivering them from cabin to cabin. 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

I've done 2 transatlantic cruises, both were on Royal Caribbean ships entering the US for the first time. Went with my dad both times. I was in my late 30s, he was close to 70. Enjoyed the pace very much. I was one of the younger cruisers and it was fun taking older style dance classes and doing trivia. I loved the slower pace. My dad read a LOT. (He always read a LOT.) He's gone now. I wouldn't do this cruise now.

Such a lovely couple. They complement one another.

I did the Queen Mary Transatlantic Crossing New York to Southampton and absolutely loved it. I get terrible motion sickness and was surprised that I was unaffected totally on the transatlantic cruise perhaps going east is an easier crossing. Also, I went in the summer. I tell all my friends to do a transatlantic cruise on the Queen Mary because you can’t even feel the ship. I got in trouble one evening when I said, wouldn’t it be nice if we had a storm and then we could feel the ship moving the whole table looked at me like I was nuts. It would be neat to see an iceberg but we never did and no one else at my table was looking forward to seeing one. I especially liked the planetarium and the entertainment that we had was fantastic. I am looking forward to doing it again. Thank you for your. They are always so entertaining. You are the best.

Dearest Ben and David, thrilled that you are finally sailing on QM2 and as always, you have me in stitches with your commentary. No need to order those British snacks from Amazon. When you arrive in NYC just go to Myers of Keswick, 634 Hudson Street and you'll find everything you need. It is a little bit of British heaven right there in Greenwich Village.

You guys are great. I love the genuine honesty. I'm going on a round trip transatlantic in June 2025 on the QMII. I 'm aware the ship is a little older but no worries. Thank You for the informative take on all aspects of this crossing.

What a wonderful painting of the Queen. It's still so strange that she is no longer in the world. Wonderful video. Thanks.

We went on a 3 nighter when she had come out of dry Dock last year. Service was really poor then...Spa cancelled and not informed. Room service never came as they 'were too busy'. If they don't have the staff they should reduce how many cabins they are selling

Definitely jam on bottom (spread) then dollop of cream on top - Deportment training 😊😅

[karinbrantner]

The guy sitting behind Ben at Tea had a nasty scowl directed your way, he looked very rude, Guy's, I seriously doubt it is your fault at all, he did not look happy to begin with....I have neighbors like that. Some people never knew what "happy" or "enjoy" is. People like that are miserable in their own lives. It may have to do with the filming, but PLEASE do not stop! I look forward all the time to your video's, you always have great content! To me, this is you two sharing cruises I cannot experience myself and I appreciate that so very much!

WhooHoo! The boys are resplendent in their finery. Was slightly worried when David was in a black tee shirt; as of late he has been so colorfully stylish. Ben has a posh style and David has an innocent yet dignified look! Love you guys

Regarding the comments on the baffling layout -- Gary of the Tips for Travelors channel has posted he has trouble finding his way around, and he's done a dozen crossings!
As for the poor condition, I think Carnival (which owns Cunard) are letting this ship down. Do they think it's OK if everything they own comes down to the level of a budget Carnival ship?
I was especially sad that the planetarium was down -- that was once a big point of pride for them.
Queen Mary probably needs an extended dry dock, but that would take it out of service and cost them too much.

[bluedragonkimchi]

How sad about the food, you’d think it would over the top along with the service. The ship is beautiful. Thanks guys!
