VALENCIA, Calif., Oct. 9, 2024
/CNW/ -- Luxury cruise line Cunard has announced its new program of
voyages sailing from October 2026 to
April 2027.
Guests will be able to enjoy more than 40 new voyages on
Cunard's iconic fleet of four Queens: flagship Queen Mary 2, its newest vessel Queen Anne, as well as Queen Victoria and Queen
Elizabeth.
The new itineraries feature 101 unique destinations across 57
countries, including 62 UNESCO World Heritage sites. With 22
overnight port calls and 26 late-evening departures, the new
program offers guests even more opportunities to explore the world.
Among the highlights are two maiden calls for the fleet: Ferrol,
Spain, and Acajutla, El Salvador – both aboard Queen Victoria.
Cunard World Club members will have early access to bookings
from 5am PDT on October 16, 2024, before the new voyages are on
sale to the general public from 5am
PDT on October 17, 2024.
Queen Anne
Whatever your dream destination, discover it with Queen Anne. As the newest addition to the Cunard
fleet, Queen Anne will make her
maiden call to South America as
part of her 56-night South America Discovery voyage, which sails
roundtrip from Ft. Lauderdale and
includes an overnight stay in Rio de
Janeiro. She will also make maiden calls to Casablanca in Morocco and Bridgetown in Barbados, among others.
Queen Mary 2
From exploring the UNESCO World Heritage site of Santiago de Compostela on a tour from El
Ferrol to an overnight call in Mindelo on the Cape Verde Island of
Sao Vincente, Queen Mary 2's new
voyages offer experiences to delight and amaze.
Or whether it's the white sands and warm shallows of the
Caribbean in December or indulging
in Cunard signatures as you while away uninterrupted sea days on
one of her iconic Transatlantic Crossings sailing across the year,
a voyage on Queen Mary 2 is always a
special experience.
Queen Victoria

a 109-night World Voyage beginning in January 2027, visiting cultural capitals such as
Hong Kong, Sydney, and Cape
Town. She will also make maiden calls to Dakar in Senegal and Durban in South
Africa.

operate an exciting Caribbean
program from Miami in late 2026
and into 2027, with a variety of seven-, nine-, and 14-night
