If travel is meant to be savored, then crossing the
oceans should be a majestic experience, not merely a hop across the
pond. For travelers of this persuasion, only one name evokes the
pleasures of a golden era: Cunard Line. Proudly continuing the
tradition of luxury cruising that began in 1840, Queen Mary 2 debuts
in 2004 as the new flagship of The Most Famous Ocean Liners in the
WorldSM. As the tallest, longest, largest and most expensive cruise
ship ever built, QM2 provides its guests with unprecedented
amenities and accommodations at every turn. Maintaining the
tradition of its Cunard and White Star Line predecessors, QM2 is the
only ship offering regularly scheduled transatlantic service. Queen
Elizabeth 2 continues to set the standard of British elegance with
superb White Star ServiceSM and gourmet cuisine. Sailing a
definitive World Cruise and round-trip Southampton voyages, QE2
endures as one of the greatest liners of its time. The two Queens
are joined by another classic liner, Caronia, which also delivers an
elegant Old World cruising experience in the UK market. Queen
Victoria joins the fleet in March 2005.
