Queen Elizabeth: Luxury Ocean Liner

Our Gracious New Cunarder

Queen Elizabeth, our newest Cunarder, joined the fleet in October 2010.  She relives, in modern glamour, the high society events of the 1930s and 1940s. Grace ornate rooms whose rich décor recalls the heritage of the first Cunarder to bear her name. Images and features from her predecessors, Queen Elizabeth and QE2, sit comfortably alongside her modern charm.
