Cunard has revealed the 110 international voyages that it will be offering between 23 October 2023 and 14 May 2024, including the maiden voyages onboard its new ship Queen Anne.
The cruise line’s four-ship fleet, made up of Queen Mary 2, Queen Victoria, Queen Elizabeth and Queen Anne, will call at 126 ports in 51 countries and itineraries will range from two-night city breaks to a 108-night world voyage.
Queen Anne, which is set to embark on its inaugural voyage in early 2024, will offer cruises from Southampton, UK, and will travel to the Mediterranean, Caribbean and Northern Europe. The ship will also sail an eastbound transatlantic crossing.
Meanwhile, Queen Victoria will embark on a 107-night ‘World Voyage’ in 2024, departing from Southampton. The ship will begin by sailing west towards North America, then onwards to Australia and will return to Europe via South Africa. In total, Queen Victoria will visit 32 destinations on this itinerary.
Queen Mary 2 will sail an eastbound transatlantic crossing to New York, USA, before departing for a 108-night ‘World Voyage’, which will visit the Mediterranean, Asia, Australia and return to Europe via South Africa.
Finally, Queen Elizabeth will operate in Barcelona, Spain, before offering six-night voyages from Fremantle, Australia. Then, the vessel will embark on a series of short break and roundtrip voyages from Melbourne and Sydney, Australia, including a Christmas and New Year itinerary to New Zealand, a 10-night trip to Queensland, Australia, and a new 14-night voyage calling in the South Pacific.
“Announcing every new programme for Cunard is always exciting, but this year is even more so, as guests will be able to choose itineraries across four magnificent ships in the fleet for the first time since 1999,” said Sture Myrmell, president of Carnival UK. “In the newly announced programme, each ship offers a unique experience with distinct itineraries. Our new voyages bring opportunities to explore all corners of the world in luxurious surroundings while enjoying our white star service as well as all the other special touches that make a trip with Cunard so special.”
