Cunard Line

The Queen Mary 2

It's really the liners that we remember about Cunard Line, from the stately transatlantic-famed QE2 to the largest passenger ship ever built, the Queen Mary 2.

Read more...

And not forgetting their newest addition the Queen Victoria. Cunard Line is a great British institution which appeals to well-travelled passengers who wish to hark back to the traditional, romantic ideals of ocean travel.

All the ships feature traditional dining with two classes, Britannia and Grills and you'll be seated in line with this, although all enjoy the famous Cunard White Star Service. You'll dress for dinner each night, after all on the Queen Mary 2 you have not one but two sweeping staircases from which to make your entrance! There are also less formal dining options if you fancy a more intimate or casual night.

Each ship has the West End inspired Royal Court Theatre with actors provided by RADA no less and with the enrichment programme provided by Oxford University as well, you can appreciate that Cunard does things to the highest standards.

The Queen Mary 2 is mostly a transatlantic liner, taking over from the QE2 which will be retired this year and she's undisputedly the grandest and most magnificent liner ever built, with the superb design making her not only extremely safe but comfortable too.

And she's huge. From bow to stern, she boasts 14 spacious decks on which to relax and unwind with opulent public areas, extravagant dining rooms, ballrooms, theatres, lounges...even the only Planetarium at sea. Plus a staggering 75% of the rooms have a balcony and even her tasteful interior staterooms provide extra touches like a mini-refrigerator, bathrobe and slippers.

Cunard's brand new smaller ship the Queen Victoria has all the best traditional features of her big sister but it's packaged into a ship that's small enough to be able to sail worldwide, traversing the Panama Canal as easily as exploring Greenland and making Cunard's repertoire even more appealing.
