Creator's Key Takeaways

QM2 is a unique ship and one that I love, but it isn't without its faults.

My last trip on QM2 a few months ago was one of the first with paid for room service.

Illuminations is such a rocking venue. It looks awesome. way nicer than the main theater and it seats what 500 people.

G32 is mental. Why would an ocean liner with a cruise line that prides itself on tradition and ballroom dancing and afternoon tea need a 1980s style sleazy nightclub?

Creator's Tips & Advice

Increase fares by $5 each day to keep room service complimentary.
Put a proper program of movies in Illuminations to use the venue better.
Knock through the Commodore Club to increase capacity.
Refurbish the Boardwalk Cafe and call it Churchills for cigar smokers.
Make Chef's Galley a 24-hour snack bar.
