Creator's Key Takeaways

i'm gary bembridge i've done five cunard transatlantic crossings to date

the queen mary 2 crossing is different it's the only ship running a scheduled transatlantic service

if you really do not want to dress up then it's smart to reconsider doing a crossing

the smart way to go is the westbound route from southampton to new york

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Ask if a crossing is right for you, not a standard repositioning cruise
βœ“Understand the dress code and be prepared to dress up for evenings
βœ“Book a midship cabin to minimize movement and seasickness
βœ“Choose the westbound route from Southampton to New York for longer days

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Getting bored with seven days at sea β€” The program has four to seven activities per hour, focused on enrichment
Dressing up for evenings β€” Dress code is not as strict as it used to be; five nights are smart attire
Seasickness β€” Get a cabin in the middle of the ship and consider motion sickness remedies
