It was a more
civilized era, the Golden Age of Ocean Travel. Crossing the ocean was a
grand event unto itself, the very embodiment of sophistication and
privilege. And traveling Cunard was what one naturally chose for such a
voyage. Cunard's glorious ocean liners were floating palaces of art deco
Splendour and Edwardian excess, surrounding guests with every comfort and
elegance. They attracted the greatest personalities of the day, from world
leaders to movie stars, who sipped champagne at festive black-tie soirees
and strolled along graceful promenades attired in their finest apparel. It
was the quintessence of luxury travel, and getting there was truly half the
fun.
Cunard continues this celebration of style with Queen Mary 2 and Queen
Elizabeth 2 - and will proudly expand this heritage with Queen Victoria
scheduled to enter service in December 2007 - proving once again that, with
Cunard, the journey may be even more magnificent than the destination.
Welcome to
Queen Mary 2 - the grandest, most magnificent ocean liner ever built. She's
a true heir to the timeless elegance, legacy and inspiration of the great
Cunard liners of legend. You'll notice it the moment you walk through her
doors into her soaring Grand Lobby, and be awed from the first instance you
experience the famous Cunard White Star ServiceSM.
Yet this sophisticated monarch also boasts the most modern luxuries and
amenities - from the pampering services of the only Canyon Ranch SpaClub® on
the seas to the fascinating Cultural Enrichment Programme led by prestigious
experts. This regal royal must truly be seen to be believed - come live the
adventure.
With the
launch of Queen Victoria in December 2007, three Queens will sail together
under the Cunard banner for the first time in our history. To set eyes on
her sleek outline, with her distinctive black and red livery, is to
recognize her instantly as the latest Classic Cunarder, a unique marriage of
heritage and innovation.
As one of the first guests ever to embark, you will encounter the dramatic
three-tier Grand Lobby, whose magnificent staircase and eye-catching artwork
offers a lavish taste of life aboard. Walk around the ship and you’ll see
elaborate chandeliers adorn the Queens Room double height ceiling to enhance
its calm grandeur.
The Winter Garden is all light and relaxation, very much colonial in tone,
with decked floors and leafy foliage – its glass roof even opens to the warm
breeze. Elegant and stylish, every public room will create a unique
ambience where our renowned White Star Service will continue to surpass
expectations. Take your place in history and be among the first to
experience the unveiling of this Classic Cunarder on her Maiden World Cruise
in 2008.

Queen
Elizabeth 2
A Legendary Liner Adored The World Over...
Imagine a floating
palace where the pleasures are unmatched. Where royalty, millionaires and
film stars have been known to stroll on gleaming teak decks while savoring
the earth's most dramatic panoramas. Welcome aboard the one and only Queen
Elizabeth 2. Thanks to a refurbishment from bow to stern, she is uniquely
prepared to pamper you with the utmost contemporary comfort.
Still the only ship offering regularly scheduled transatlantic service,
Queen Elizabeth 2 is also an honored guest in ports near and far. Sailing
the world's waters, she becomes your glamorous refuge. |
How can words
hope to do justice to her immortal story? It’s the story of an iconic
favorite, an undisputed legend of the seas that, spans forty years, crosses
continents, circles the globe and inspires generation upon generation.
Already she has carried over two million travelers, many returning time
after time to their second home. Today she ranks as Cunard’s longest serving
express liner and still holds the title of the most famous ship in the
world.
