Creator's Key Takeaways

this video is brought to you by Squarespace

we've spent a few days on Queen Mary the world's only ocean liner for a few days now

the food was a bit M it was okay I had a watermelon salad to start with and it was fine

it took 1 hour 45 to get our starters and we only ordered two courses

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Bring seasickness medication or remedies
βœ“Request a private table if there are just two of you
βœ“Book everything you want to do on the ship before you get on
βœ“Check prices online before buying on board

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Seasickness on northern Atlantic route β€” Bring seasickness medication; the ship is designed to minimize motion
Dress code for formal nights β€” You can wear flare; not as strict as expected, only two formal nights on this cruise
