Cunard focuses on comfort, privacy, and service – linking the traditional elegance of nineteenth century with the state-of-the-art.
Cunard has the pedigree to support this claim, as way back in 1839 Queen Victoria awarded Samuel Cunard the first ever licence to deliver mail across the Atlantic. As a result, Cunard was the first company to take passengers on regularly scheduled transatlantic voyages and a continuous service ever since has ensured that Cunard has maintained a reputation for quality and service that is unparalleled.
Somewhat more formal than other lines, Cunard appeals to the older passenger and doesn’t offer the wide range of ‘family’ activities that other cruise lines do, but provides a sophisticated experience that has brought the line a loyal following
The newly-launched Queen Victoria continues this elegant, upmarket cruising experience into the twenty-first century.
The new 92,000-ton liner, to be named ‘Queen Elizabeth’ has been ordered and is scheduled to enter service in the autumn of 2010. Cunard have signed an agreement with Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri for the construction of the new 2092-passenger ocean liner, which will be built at their Monfalcone yard at an all-in cost of approximately €500 million.

The Queen Mary 2 is the tallest, longest, largest and most expensive passenger cruise ship ever built and the only vessel still offering a regularly scheduled transatlantic service. She is often described as the most opulent ocean liner ever built.

This new Cunard liner, infamously launched by the Duchess of Cornwall in 2007, is an interesting move away from the superliner trend. Although she’s the second largest Cunard ship to be built, she is small enough to transit the Panama Canal, unlike several vessels introduced by other lines in 2007 and 2008.
