Cunard:

 

 

The legacy of Cunard...

It was a more civilized era, the golden age of sea 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 splendor and Edwardian excess, surrounding guests with every comfort and luxury. 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 - proving once again, with Cunard, the journey may be even more magnificent that the destination.

 

Queen Mary 2

 

The Greatest Ocean Liner Of Our Time

Queen Mary 2 has been awarded a maritime Oscar from Berlitz in their 2005 guide to Ocean Cruising & Cruise Ships. The famous liner’s Queens and Princess grill accommodations were awarded five stars – ranking Queen Mary 2 seventh out of more than 260 ships – and besting the luxury vessels of Silversea, Crystal and Radisson Seven Seas.

 

Classic Cunard hallmarks weave throughout Queen Mary 2: sweeping staircases, soaring public rooms, a grand ballroom, a 360° promenade deck. With one staff member per couple, Cunard's renowned White Star ServiceSM is also assured.

 

The most anticipated ocean liner in the world also comes with an unprecedented cache of luxuries and innovations. Three-quarters of her staterooms have balconies. Lavish two-story duplexes even have their own private exercise equipment. Exciting restaurants like Todd English and Cunard's renowned Grills create the premier dining experience at sea.

 

A space ratio of 57.25 makes her one of the roomiest vessels anywhere. Even that can't prepare you for the endless possibilities which occupy all this space - 14 decks of sports facilities, shops, bars, lounges, 5 pools and no fewer than 10 restaurants, a largesse which allows you the freedom to experience your own preferences and passions. Rejuvenate at the celebrated Canyon Ranch SpaClub®. Or how about the classic British deck game of quoits?

 

Try something novel. Learn something new! Cunard ConneXionsSM is almost like a college at sea, taking into account, of course, that you're on vacation. Or take a virtual ride into space at IlluminationsSM, the only planetarium afloat.

 

Queen Elizabeth 2

 

Maiden World Cruise

Whether you prefer days of leisure or stimulating activities, Queen Elizabeth 2 accommodates extravagantly. Enjoy a dazzling variety of concerts, films and illuminating talks. Indulge in swimming and aerobics - or soothing treatments at the spa, featuring world-renowned Steiner Leisure Spa Products - or stroll among the Royal Promenade boutiques.

 

Later, linger over cocktails in the Crystal Bar or the Queens Grill Lounge before sitting down to feast on QE2's culinary rituals - from a simple spa lunch on deck or cream cakes and Darjeeling at tea time, to casual meals in the Lido, or the tantalizing gourmet fare in one of the formal restaurants.

 

Wherever you dine you will enjoy Queen Elizabeth 2's impeccable Cunard White Star ServiceTM, as attentive waiters guide you through a tempting array of courses.

 

Ascend to the Sun Deck Bar, where the views span the horizon. Applaud the piano player in the Chart Room or take a seat in the Grand Lounge, where a Broadway style is about to premier. Dance to the accompaniment of the orchestra in the Queens Room, toast the sunset in the Yacht Club, raise your voice in song in the Golden Lion Pub, or perhaps Lady Luck will entice you to the Casino. QE2 voyages even include a bridge lecturer, clergy, and a number of gentleman hosts!
