I Tried a Traditional British Cruise On Cunard - I Was Actually Shocked!

Hey sailors,
I have just disembarked my first-ever Cunard cruise which really surprised me. Cunard is known for being traditionally British, very formal, and aimed at the more mature passenger. This being said, I really didn't know if I would feel out of place, on this cruise being under 30 years old.
It was a five-day cruise leaving Southampton and going to Hamburg and back and it was very different from any cruise ship I have ever been on before.

It’s not so much that Cunard is “older” as that it is consciously “retro”- they aspire to keep “the Golden Age of Travel” alive. The ship’s decor reflects that, but so too is the dress code necessary to preserve that ambience. I think the entertainment also reflects this-more lectures and classical music. Also they must be one of the only lines that have real libraries on their ships! Personally I love it-the same way I loved travelling on the Orient Express and the Pride of Africa trains.

In my 30s I was a cruise operations coordinator for several cruise lines, including Cunard, for two large travel companies here in North America. I did all of this from my desk in Boston, Massachusetts. We were the largest booking agency for Cunard on the North American Continent. I was given a transatlantic crossing on the QE2. I found later that I was booked into princess grill, so I went to Keyzers, a wonderful men’s clothing store near Harvard University in Harvard Square. I bought a tuxedo and I got red, white, and black, matching bow ties and cummerbunds for my transatlantic cruise. I loved the experience of this transatlantic crossing! It draws an entirely different crowd than you get on a 7 day, 7 port cruise. A rockstar, whose wife was too pregnant to fly, but they wished for their child to be born in England, a world-class, tap dancer, who is no longer with us, that got a bit bored on the second day out, so he decided to give tap dancing lessons in the Queen’s ballroom, for free, and a star trek captain, who was rather shy, and mostly kept to himself. A transatlantic crossing is an entirely different world! Other than river cruising, it’s the only cruise that I shall ever do again! 😸

I’m a 32 year old cruiser, and had my first experience with Cunard last year onboard Queen Elizabeth for 2 weeks as we transmitted the Panama Canal. I found the ship to be quiet ALL the time - even the middle of the afternoon on a sea day! Good to see you covering a ship like this - really enjoyed this video!

Great video! We are a couple in our early 30’s but are definitely old souls. Love reading, antique shopping, afternoon tea and just chilling out in a more elegant environment. I was a bit worried about booking a Cunard cruise as I still thought we might stand out and be seen as a little strange but I think you’ve convinced me. Queen Mary to New York I think. The Queen Anne looks incredible too, modern but still super classy! Would love to see a video of either the queen Mary or Anne 👍

Cunard sounds perfect. My idea of hell is a week of twerking, hooting and hollering, drunk, loud, party types. My fave cruise so far was Regent Seven Seas around the Med. So peaceful and relaxing. Plush everything and the food was amazing. I loved it. Did RC around Singapore and Thailand, that was ok too. I think I’ll give Cunard a go. 👍

Lucy, thanks for a lovely video! Whether vlog or narrated-in-post, it's fine with me (although if you're out in port, vlogs are of course better). I'm glad you enjoyed Cunard, and btw while I know you enjoyed Virgin the best (both working on and cruising on), I do get a sense of surprised-happiness in your voice regarding this experience. And who knows, in a few years you may find yourself taking another one-week Cunard cruise (to relax, decompress, etc.)? Take care, Fair Winds, and stay warm up there sweetie! 😀

I'm SO not a dress-up kinda guy but I love the idea of stepping back in time and enjoying something a bit more sedate than what I've experienced on Carnival, Norwegian, etc. I very much enjoyed everything about this review... you get to the point, you're honest, and you keep things moving at a great pace.

Particularly interesting video, Lucy so thanks for that! My wife and I (58& 60) only started cruising in 2014 and have only done Cunard cruises, except that we tried Celebrity (Silhouette) 2 years ago. I found your video very insightful and similar to what we have experienced. For us, ( 'older souls' 😂) Cunard is perfect - quieter, more laid back, a bit dressier - a bit 'classier' dare I say? We also like it for the good gluten-free food offer; it's far, far better than Celebrity offered us. We are also looking forward to seeing how Queen Anne subtly moves things more into the current vibe, without disrupting what makes Cunard good (for us). It would also be fascinating to see you experience a QM2 transatlantic trip!

Right On. Classy, elegant and relaxed = CUNARD! Probably more intellectually stimulating vs. the constant loud Dance Party scene of others. More appreciative of finer things, abeit appearing quite Slower in appearance to a younger generation with short attention spans, it's actually a very full and satisfying experience. Would I have enjoyed it during my youth? Maybe not so much on some levels, but the Awe Factor would have made it clear it was special. Plus, intergenerational mingling is fantastic and healthy for all.

I had an auditon with Cunard a few days ago for cruise staff. I noticed that they were very classist in who they chose. All the northerners, working class and the more extroverted ones were asked to apply to P&O (interviews in Manchester) but the sweet, well spoken and quieter ones were chosen for Cunard

The Dress Code. I would have to challenge your opinion there - people tend to cruise Cunard in part because of the dress code (regardless of their age) and regulars tend to make sure they stick to it after 5. It is usually people who've never been with the line before who flaunt the rules and let the side down, which are even more lax now than before Covid. What people are a bit tired of are the "gala night" (formally formal night) themes, and so depending on the cruise and demographic the percentage who embrace the theme varies. Given it was a 4-night cruise (of two 2-night segments) prior to the world cruise starting, there was a huge difference in the passengers and is probably not an accurate representation as there were those who'll have embarked Southampton and disembarked Hamburg; those who embarked Hamburg, and disembarked Southampton; and those who did the full 4-nights before continuing onto the world cruise. Naturally those who were only doing either 2-night segment would want to try to pack light and may not have necessarily brought a "proper" formal wear with them.

I did the Hamburg 5 nights on the Cunard Queen Mary 2. I'm in my 50s and loved it! There was lots of entertainment but I would agree it might be the most exciting for youngsters. For instance there are quizzes, the planetarium, talks, art gallery and library and gym/spa. Evening entertainment was Motown hits etc. Kids and teenagers would probably be bored. There was nightclubs/dancing though for those who like to boogie the night away. My family wanted to have dinner every night in the Britannia but I personally found the menu too formal (a bit posh for my liking!) so I prefer the flexibility of the self service restaurant.

Hello Lucy, If I cruised I would be a Cunad fan (I'm old). I Love all your Vlogs. Have you moved from you latest position (not in a shop). I thought you were looking after passengers on board (or something like that). Great to see Queen Victoria, I wonder if there is much difference between QV (A Cruise ship) and Queen Mary 2 (The last Ocean Going Ship). I't's a bit late now, but I wish you a Happy New Year.

Miss Lucy - Very nice, informative vlog, I really enjoyed the content regarding Cunard. Also nice that you met a friend on board with whom you used to work with - how cool was that? I immediately noticed when you changed from your camera to your phone for the video - interestingly, the color of your wall decoration was far richer with the phone's camera, your main camera's colors seem a bit more washed out comparatively. You also mentioned sound quality, and I agree that there's something a little "off" about it - both with your main camera and your phone's camera. It may be due to the acoustics of the room you're filming in that's contributing to the sound quality? Here's a thought: perhaps if you could figure out a way to hang a blanket behind the camera, that might help improve the acoustics by reducing reflected sounds coming back from the wall? Experiment and see? Keep up the good work, always enjoy your vlogs, and have learned a lot thru them! Cheers!

Follow the rule of 1/3s. Your eyes should be 1/3 from the top of frame, 2/3s of YOU. If you look one way to get a profile shot, 2/3 in front of you, 1/3 behind (Look room). Okay…Im a video director by profession but I do love watching your videos.

It was interesting seeing this coming from Adrian the Cruise and Travel Guy's video on Queen Elizabeth, which was recently here in Australia. I'm 51 turning 25 :) Whilst I feel that Virgin would be too much of a party (being autistic I find noise and bright flashing lights too much), Cunard would be too stuffy, being a casual bloke as well. As such, I think I'll stick with the middle ground, such as P&O Australia (which is a budget line unlike P&O UK), Carnival and the smaller RCL ships that sail here in Australia. If I want a more premium style experience, I'll look to Princess.

Hi Lucy, I've sailed the QE2 original, Mary 2, victoria and Elizabeth, yes very different demographic to Royal, princess, celebrity etc, I would now fit in well now because I've just turned 60, however besides, the general class that the the majority of passengers are, you also have the queen grill and I think king, could be wrong on that, which provides an elevated experience in the cabin and food department and old style cruising, a little more formal but nice, privides an alternative to the other cruise ship offerings, also the passengers on board if you chat to them have a interesting story/history to talk about, rather than some chav, looking for the nearest toilet to sniff a line up their hooter 😜 so horses for courses really, you appreciate it, or hate it😂

We always find that Cunard was always slightly better for than it's sister line, P&O. P&Os food is now terrible, to the point where even the low priced couldn't tempt. So, it makes sense Cunard's is just "okay". I'd love to go back onto Cunard, especially the new Queen Anne, but until the reviews improve it'll have to wait! We are going on Fred Olsen now these days, which are dearer, but that I actually look forward to and relish meal times.

I actually prefer your phone video. The color balance is better. Your makeup looks much better. There is really no need for 4K on the typical computer monitor.

Your phone has a better camera its a lot sharper than your other camera ? That ship looks more geared up for the posh rich older people.

Loved this video. As an American I was wondering what you meant about it being very British. Are you referring to the food or are there other aspects that make it British?

I am looking forward to your next Cunard video. When the sun never set on the British Empire, the British knew a thing or two about seafaring and I suspect that some, maybe even much of that knowledge is condensed into Cunard. And while I try to be as complimentary and positive as possible, if I understand it correctly, for what you spent in the Steakhouse you could have had a filet or a strip instead of a burger? I wonder if at least subconsciously when you met Jordan, which was a great interview by the way, you have thought to yourself that you could work for Cunard also. Correct me if I am wrong, you have a certain expertise now for helping to set up a new ship?

it's a $50 cover charge per person (45 if you book prior to sailing) then you can have your choice of anything on the menu

I started with Cunard when I was 40? Felt very young at the time. Now in my 60's and feel average. Big question. Does anyone else have problems booking? Cunard give me the run around as to which web site I am on. Have given me two different World Club numbers and bitch at me for being on the wrong web site. UK / USA or ??? Have had to use a Travel Agent this time.
