Is it time to stop hating on Queen Anne? In this episode of The Expert Cruise Show, we’re diving deep into why Cunard’s newest ship is actually an excellent addition to the fleet, despite the early criticism.
I’m Chris Frame, the maritime historian, and I’ve just returned from a voyage as a guest lecturer to see how she’s settling in. We break down why 2026 is set to be the year this ship truly finds its rhythm. Anthony joins the conversation with his trademark wit to review the experience of Chris lecturing on board and shares a surprising look at a Princess Grill upgrade that caught even us off guard!
