Cunard – pioneers of luxury ocean travel – is delighted to announce the name of the new ship joining a world-renowned fleet, Queen Anne. Queen Anne will be Cunard\u2019s 249th ship and will make up a remarkable quartet of Queen Mary 2, Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth. This will mark the first time since 1999 that Cunard will have four ships at sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The name \u2018Queen Anne\u2019 celebrates Cunard\u2019s rich heritage, royal history and refined status-joining a luxury contemporary fleet now honouring the names of each Queen Regnant over the last millennium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cunard team explored multiple naming options and inspired by Queen Anne\u2019s reign, engaged with British historian, author and television presenter, Kate Williams, to assist in the detailed research. Kate says, \u2018It is so exciting that the fourth ship of the fleet will be named after Queen Anne. She has a fascinating tale to tell \u2013one of queenship, unity of developing constitutional monarchy, a golden age of the arts. She was an inspiring woman, wildly popular with her people. She should be celebrated. This new ship in the Cunard fleet is the perfect way to do it!\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Queen Anne will feature reimagined Cunard signature spaces as well as the introduction of new guest experiences within dining, culture and entertainment, for an unparalleled cruise experience underpinned by outstanding White Star Service. Bridging tradition and contemporary luxury, Queen Anne celebrates the influential design styles of both past and present and introduces an updated Cunard livery. World-renowned designers have joined forces to create an extraordinary and thoughtful standard-setting design, inspiring a new way to travel on sea. The d\u00e9cor will reveal bold colour tones and showcase a striking aesthetic, while in keeping with the renowned timeless Cunard sophistication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Carnival UK President, Sture Myrmell comments, \u2018I am absolutely delighted to welcome Queen Anne, the fourth ship to Cunard\u2019s fleet. This marks a very special moment in Cunard\u2019s 182-year history and showcases Cunard\u2019s exciting global plans for the future, allowing even more guests around the world to set sail with Cunard. With design inspired by the past and set for the future, Queen Anne is the perfect way for our guests to rediscover the joy of exploration and travel again. We look forward to sharing more details in the coming weeks and months.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Queen Anne\u2019s maiden season programme will go on sale in May, with the ship\u2019s first sailings in early 2024. More in-depth details are to be shared shortly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
