Creator's Key Takeaways

Full disclosure, before I even boarded for this trip, QM2 was already my favorite ship, but it's not what it used to be.

Room service 3 out of 10. Just because of the dreadful way charge have been introduced.

Illuminations Plantarium 0 out of 10.

Afternoon tea is not what it used to be. Queen's room 6 out of 10.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Be wary of Muhammad, the Tofu dealer at Bamboo specialty restaurant.

✓If you need an acquy center, go on Queen Victoria instead.
