We’re about to embark on our first cruise with Cunard on the iconic Queen Mary 2. But, is Cunard’s QM 2 all It’s Cracked Up to Be? What are our Expectations And Doubts? The Queen Mary cruise is a 4-night cruise from Southampton to Zeebrugge for Bruges. This will be a Cunard taster cruise before our transatlantic BFI Film Festival at sea cruise to New York next March. We are looking forward to boarding Queen Mary 2 and its 'White Star Service' but will the ship be past her prime and a little dated as it was launched in 2004.
