When Queen Anne sets sail in early 2024, she will become the first new build for the iconic cruise line in more than 12 years. Her debut will also mark the first time Cunard has had four ships in simultaneous service since 1999, as she joins the ‘Three Queens’ – Queen Elizabeth, Queen Mary 2 and Queen Victoria at sea.
Now, Cunard is proudly sharing exciting details of how the ship will set the benchmark for luxury ocean travel. Those onboard Queen Anne will enjoy an unparalleled voyage experience, designed by some of the world’s foremost designers in luxury hospitality. Reimagined Cunard signature spaces alongside the introduction of brand-new venues bring guests greater choice, all delivered through Cunard’s White Star Service.
