-UPDATE-

Dear Passenger

I hope you are looking forward to joining us on Queen Elizabeth in Fort Lauderdale and I have some important information to give you regarding the ships arrival.

Since departing from Southampton late last Saturday evening, as a result of inclement weather and very heavy seas, her arrival time into New York will unfortunately be delayed.
This means that we have had to review our onward itinerary and we will now be arriving into Fort Lauderdale on Thursday 22 January, one day later than planned.
We are in the process of making contingency plans for her turnaround and we have yet to make a firm decision on her arrival time but I wanted to give you early notice of this delay so that you can make changes to your travel plans accordingly.

If you have booked your flights with Cunard, we will be arranging an additional nights accommodation for you at the hotel.
