Hi all,

In the 2008 brochure Cunard writes 'Tender Services' for QM2 Queens
Grill. It's only for QM2 Queens Grill, not Princess Grill, Britannia, QV
& QE2 passengers. What does Cunard mean with 'Tender Services'?

At some ports the ship can not dock, so the ship anchors out, and they
use tenders to transport the passengers from the ship to the port. If
you are a Queens Grill Suite passenger you get priority boarding on the
tenders. That is go first.

It also means that your chances of getting to land have been
diminished. Poor weather, rough seas and delayed tenders can affect
your time and chances of getting to excursions, rental cars or on and
off dock shopping.

It is also not unlikely that the cruise ship may run tenders in
terrible conditions. I have seen as many "green" folks coming off
tenders as I have at sea.
