Cunard

Cunard is a British cruise line best known for regular transatlantic crossings between Southampton and New York aboard Queen Mary 2, an ocean liner designed for open-ocean voyages. Its fleet also includes Queen Elizabeth, Queen Victoria and Queen Anne, which sail in Europe, the Mediterranean, Norway, the Caribbean and on world voyages. The experience is traditional, with afternoon tea, ballroom dancing, lectures and evening dress codes on certain nights. Cabin grade determines dining venue, from the main Britannia restaurant to the Princess and Queens Grill suites with their own restaurants and lounges. Guests who prefer casual dress or high-energy entertainment may find it formal. Buyers should check dress code expectations, which grill or restaurant their cabin includes, what is covered in the fare and how a crossing differs from a port-intensive cruise.
