Cunard has forged a new partnership with Sail4th 250, the non-profit organisation overseeing celebrations in the Port of New York and New Jersey for America’s 250th anniversary next year.

Cunard has unveiled the new-look Queen Elizabeth ahead of her debut season sailing from Miami and her inaugural Alaska voyages from Seattle. The 2,000 guest ship completed a transformative three-week makeover at Seatrium’s Admiralty Yard in Singapore on Friday.

With digital photos so often left unshared, Cunard is urging guests to preserve their cruise memories by contributing their holiday snaps to a new exhibition to mark its 185th anniversary.

Broadway star Sutton Foster was aboard Cunard’s Queen Anne as the 2,000 guest ship made its Miami debut on Tuesday, marking its second stop in North America since its launch in May 2024.

Cunard’s Queen Anne marked her North American debut as she arrived in New York on her maiden call from Southampton, England last Friday.

Cunard is now offering holistic Harper’s Bazaar Wellness at Sea programs, a collaboration with the global lifestyle magazine. Launching this month, guests traveling on flagship Queen Mary 2, Queen Elizabeth, and Queen Victoria will be able to enjoy curated wellness experiences, designed to help travellers feel revitalised and recharged.

Cunard’s Queen Elizabeth is to undergo a significant refit that will transform the 2,000-guest ship ahead of a big year that will see it sail new waters.

Cunard is calling 2024 an “exceptional year” after reporting record-breaking bookings, coinciding with the launch of its highly anticipated ship, Queen Anne. From 1 January to 31 October 2024, Cunard recorded an 73,000 additional guest reservations compared to the same period in 2023 — a whopping 23% year-on-year jump.

Michelin-starred chef Nathan Outlaw will bring his culinary expertise to Cunard’s Queen Victoria for selected sailings in the Mediterranean next European summer.

What perfect timing. Cunard’s luxurious Queen Elizabeth sailed into Sydney Harbour yesterday on the same day that King Charles and Queen Camilla flew in to begin their Royal tour.

Cunard is welcoming back two Michelin-starred chef Michel Roux to Norway in 2025 for another exclusive series of Le Gavroche at Sea residencies. The esteemed chef will oversee four Le Gavroche residencies across four exciting Fjords voyages next year – two on the new Queen Anne and flagship Queen Mary 2 between April and August.

Cunard says it has achieved record-breaking bookings following the highly anticipated launch of its new ship Queen Anne.
