Would a calm summer crossing aboard Queen Mary 2 actually make us miss the North Atlantic in winter? Our first full sea day from New York to Southampton immediately feels different—and not always in the ways we expected. Before Day 2 is over, one of us is already questioning which season offers the better Queen Mary 2 transatlantic experience. This is the honest side of our summer crossing aboard Cunard’s QM2: real reactions, changing opinions and the everyday moments that never appear in a polished ship tour.
