Had to watch this one again! "C" is for clever!! We love your system. We love you! ❤
Thank you so much Kris ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for the tips. Were sailing on the 9th June. Cannot wait!
You are very welcome. Have a fantastic time on here, less than two weeks to go :)
Linzi & Mark
I'm certain the people paying tons of money for the royal suite are thrilled you're promoting the glass elevator that goes directly to their suite. People love busy lifts. 🤣
We are positive they will thank us for that Noel, think of all those lovely new people they get to meet now 🤣
Okay Linzi ~ I just went back through the video, specifically to find that bottle picture. Ahem, now "I get it". 😋 Tis a smashing photo indeed ! lol
He he he. It is a good picture 😂
Never found the laundrette on deck 4. Must have been on the odds side. Did find the scenic lift from the Commodore Club. You really wouldn’t know it was there. I’m sure I saw one small sign somewhere saying scenic lift.
Next time I’ll use your tips for the stairways. I was always using the wrong one!! x
Every buffet needs a quiet area - we cant stand it when its noisy.
Love the pencil pointer 😂
We've gone next level with Props now 😂😂😂
Thank you again! I'll primarily eat in the buffet and get room service, so your tip on the hidden spot helps a lot 👍
You are very welcome. Have a lovely day. Linzi and Mark
Like the labelling of the stairways - I needed some of that! Mind you we found the hidden part of Kings Court at lunchtime - great place for a burger.
It is a great place for lunch (or brekkie) Lindsey. It was our go to spot in the Buffet during the day.
How funny - our Cunard tips videos have gone live on the same day - great minds think alike!
The free laundry was excellent on Queen Elizabeth, but it was SO difficult to get a machine without waiting in a huge line - it blew my mind how many people seemed to LOVE doing laundry, ha!
Absolutely great minds 😂
We were surprised how busy it was on our 7 night one too. We had to go in four different laundry areas until we found one with no one in.
Loved your 20 tips video BTW.
Linzi and Mark
Ha, yeah I ran around the ship every time gossiping in every laundry room - had a ball! Oh, thanks re: the 20 tips! @@SuiteNatured
You are both lovely! The tips will be very helpful for me when I take the westbound transatlantic crossing on QM2 next May. The stairway tip is brilliant! Thank you and greetings from Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
Thank you so much Walter. So glad the tips were useful for you and have the most amazing TA in May. Please let us know how it goes. Have a lovely day, Linzi and Mark
Oh How I laughed - right from the introduction. Try saying "ships tips, so, let's have a look at my tips! " after a few hahaha, oh dear me, and I was waiting for the bottle man, replayed the video, several times, asked Dean, what was going on, and he chuckled and told me . he says he wants that photo in a frame for our wall haha. Linzi and Mark, you always make me smile, each and every video, there is something. You bring a whole new, and fresh approach to vlogging, and I absolutely love it. Im laughing now whilst im dictating hie comment lol..take care and catch up soon..Terry , Spencer and dean x x
He he he Terry. It wasn't the easiest intro to say. Glad we hadn't had too many drinks prior to doing the intro 😂
If Dean finds the picture please share us the link too 😀
As usual Terry you comments always bring the biggest smiles to our faces and we are so glad you are still enjoy our little channel. Love as always to You, Dean and Spencer.
Have a lovely week. Linzi and Mark
I always enjoy your videos. Good information and a giggle to boot! Thanks for posting!!
Thank you Donald, so glad you enjoyed it.
Linzi and Mark
I subscribed! You are a lovely couple! We are considering the British Isles 30 night next Aug/Sept and you have assured us that the sheltered balcony is the way to go! Thank you so very much ♥
Thank you so much Kris. Wow. A 30 night British isles cruises sounds amazing and given the British weather the sheltered balcony is a great bet 😀
Linzi and the
At the risk of being an interloper, I'll add my two cents. I've sailed the QM2 for a 15-night TA cruise and back again. It was heavenly, and we're going again next summer, but only for 10-nights TA and on to Hamburg. With that background out of the way, I'll let you know that we had a sheltered balcony cabin last time and loved it so much that it became a requirement for next summer's cruise. Crossing the Atlantic, the winds and waves can be shockingly rough, and the protection from the ship's hull is very welcome. You'll also have the utmost privacy in your cabin and on your balcony.
One thing that is often not mentioned in these videos (but I think should be) is that if you're crossing the Atlantic--no matter the season--it will get very cold. Take a warm jacket or at least a heavy sweater/jumper. You're going to want to walk a few laps around Deck 7 at least once in a while, and you'll be glad for the extra layers, even in August!
@@ajs11201 Thank you! We are daily walkers and have wondered how chilly it might be on the promenade. Enjoy your cruise! We are counting the days...283 😅
@@ajs11201 most definitely not an interloper 😀
Great point re the layers for warmth although wierdly on our TA now on Apex outside has been lovely (lowest day around 19c so far) but inside the ship at night it's been occasionally freezing, so we've had to layer up in there on occasion with what we expected to where out on the deck.
So we completely agree bring Layers on a cruise you never know where or when you'll need them
Linzi and Mark
I've just noticed you guys have hit 6k - congratulations!!
Thank you Fraser. It won't be long at all till you hit the 6K too. ❤️
@@SuiteNatured Hope so - time will tell, I guess!!
Regarding the laundry, I saw detergent, does that have a smell? I am quite chemically sensitive unfortunately, and could not find anything online regarding the ingredients or odor of "luxy leaves detergent".
Thank you for all the wonderful videos, they are a joy to watch.
H Elenor, no it didn't have much of a smell at all. We both have quite sensitive skin too and it didn't effect us at all.
Hope this helps.
Have a lovely day. Linzi and Mark
The Chef's Gallery section of the Kings Court provides evening table service - pasta dishes and made to order pizza. This is not considered one of the alternative theme [extra cost] 'pop up' venues on the port side.
Oh thanks for pointing that our. We will mention it on our food and dining guide in a few weeks 😀
Have a lovely day. Linzi and Mark
Hi, if you buy the drinks package does that cover ALL gratuities? Daily and spa as well as the drinks? I can’t seem to find that info anywhere.
Hi Richard. No it only covers the gratuities for the drinks package, you would still have them for the dailys and spa.
Isn't anyone else bothered by the husband constantly interrupting his wife and talking over her? I genuinely started watching the video because we have an upcoming cruise, but had to stop watching because I was so frustrated with his behavior.
Thank you for your comment.
We are sorry you don't like our conversational style. We do not use scripts, we just talk about the subject we are covering, which occasionally will mean we interrupt each other if there is something either of us has to add.
Thanks for giving the channel a chance and there's plenty of other great creators on TH-cam who won't frustrate you as much.
Have a lovely day and a nice time on QM2.
Linzi and Mark
@@SuiteNatured I appreciate your response. I just feel uncomfortable watching someone get completely overrun by their partner. Wishing you the best though.
Thank you@@jnew4556believe me, after 30 years of marriage, it is very often the other way around, especially in the real world 😂
If you can, try and skip onto my system of navigation tip, it's one of my favourites I've done, and we've had loads of people say it was really useful.
I'm not; to me it just looks like natural chemistry. They keep finishing each other's sentences. It's actually cute
@@solennethomas7365 thank you Solenne, we genuinely finish each others sentences or say exactly the same random thing at exactly the same time with the same inflection that even our family and close friends think it is weird 🤣
We like to think after being together since the mid 80's we are just very in tune with each other 😀❤
Having sailed on this ship. How childish to create a blog on this subject. GO CHECK IT FOR YOUR SELF
Really not sure what to make of that comment Mary?
Why would you consider it childish to create something that is designed to help people get the most out of their cruise and maybe even learn something they wouldn’t have done even onboard?
