1972 and 1973 transatlantic schedules wanted

[Myles Chantler]

Hi

 I was wondering if anyone has a list or record of all or part of the transatlantic schedules for 1972 and 1973 the QE2 operated. Or if anyone has scanned copies of the sailing schedule brochures for these years that could be sent across, I would be very grateful.  If it's easier to pm me with any info please do

thanks for any help you may be able to give me

Sadly, although I was onboard during these dates it never occurred to me keep such records. You probably know that the transatlantic crossings were mostly, New York, Cherbourg, Southhampton and back again throughout the summer. Pretty routine for the most part, unless a storm made things interesting.

Hi Chris, just wondered if you might have remembered my Dad. He was engine room in 1972.
I have posted a photo on my previous thread. Great to read your story.

Patty, Hi!
I'm so sorry, but I don't remember your dad. I was just a kid at the time and there were so many of us in engineering. Many of the guys were watchkeepers for long stretches at a time and there was not always the chance to meet and get to know everyone.

regards
Chris
