.Has anyone ever been on a world cruise and if you had the chance would you go on one..................

The reason I am asking is that hubby and I fancy going on one, we have got £11.50 saved, does anyone know how much they cost?

So you don't think we've got enough with £11. 50 Daphne...lol

The one we were looking at is 111 days, we're only thinking about it for when we retire, and that won't be for ages yet...

LOL Barbara ,
£11.50 mmmmm you've got a little way to go yet then lol
My sister went on the QE 11 about 5 yrs ago now ,she said she loved it .

Hi Hazel, was it a world cruise they went on

We've never been on a cruise but may try a small one this year and we have been looking at some for when we retire, but don't know if we could cope with one for that long. By the time we retire, we may have a bit more saved lol..

Not sure Barbara if it was a world cruise
it was for their 50yrs married i know that they were away
for about a month ...

I think it was the Queen Mary we were looking at and they seemed to stop in port for a day or two days but we only skimmed through Daphne, I just thought it would be a good idea to ask on here because it's a long time to be away.

My next door neighbours went twice last year and love it so thought we might give it a go. A month might be nice long enough to give it a try but it's very expensive I think..might have to pass the hat round lol

I would like to go somewhere first and then join the ship, Daphne best of both worlds.

But I've told other half we have to have a cabin with a balcony, he'd have us in the crews quarters if he could save a few quid....lol

Oh yes Daphne definitely ocean if we are going to do this then we're going to do it properly, will have to sell the silver...lol

Hi Barbara Try a shorter Cruise first 1 or 2 weeks
and good Idea to fly Cruise
We went on the Oriana on her 2nd sailing few years ago now

beautiful Criuser Delish food
oh and don't forget to take at least 3 different size clothes you will need them
would I go a World Cruise YES

Jenxx
ps start saving lol

I always take two sizes on normal holidays Jen lol, so three sizes phew....
we have been having a look and they are very expensive but we have a few years before we retire so, who knows, it may be all a pipe dream but if we start thinking of it now and I pass the hat round...lol....

I've got £11.50 already Jen and if I resist the urge to go over thre road to the shop for chocolate, I could have £12.50

Barbara,World Cruise? Did it on the inaugural cruise of the Oriana,Not bad but it seemed to be like a Floating Bordello. :o))>.re the Cost Add a couple of noughts to your £11.50.plus a few more grand ( and thats for One) if you want to go First Class in a Stateroom Wait till you win the Lottery. Would I go again, I think not.But if you go Enjoy it. Best wishes, **M**.

Hang on Babs I'll see how much is in the
Grandchildren's moneybox :))

We're alright Jen, Merlin has plenty or if not, he could magic some for us,

How many noughts Merlin, OMG will have to earn a few quid then..lol

Hi Merlin I could'nt spell inaugural lol so put 2nd sailing

jenxx

Wmsl Jen...was you on the same cruise as Merlin.....then

Barbara, at least two.If first Class another one,plus you pay for all shore trips,plus tips to your stewards,Jen. If you went on the World Cruise,Did you get the Silver Napkin Rings they gave to all people who did the First one? By the way, Make sure the Bloody Stabilisers are working they were,nt whe I went on it,and it was not very nice going through The Bay, As in Throw up Time.**M**.

Oh Merlin I can't go if the ship moves, it doesn't does it, I get seasick, lol,
