First-time guest on Queen Mary 2, Transatlantic Crossing

Absolutely. Whether you’re seeking solitude and self-discovery or shared moments with someone special, Cunard offers the perfect balance. Our ships feature solo staterooms and plenty of quiet spaces or lively lounges to suit your mood.

Are Cunard voyages suitable for solo travellers or couples?

A voyage with Cunard is all about ease and enjoyment. From the moment you step on board, you're invited to relax and wear whatever makes you feel most comfortable. Whether that’s a sundress, shorts and a t-shirt, or your favourite jeans and jumper. There’s no formal dress code during the day, so you can simply unwind and enjoy your time at sea.In the evenings, your main restaurant – whether that’s the Britannia Restaurant, Britannia Club, Princess Grill, or Queens Grill – offers a stylish setting where smart attire is encouraged. If you’d prefer to keep things casual, there are plenty of other dining venues on board that welcome relaxed dress.Then there are our&nbsp;<a href="/activity-types/evening/gala-balls" title="" target="_self">Gala Evenings</a>&nbsp;– a highlight for many guests. These special nights are a chance to dress up and celebrate in style, whether you choose black tie, a cocktail dress, or something that simply makes you feel your best. Of course, if dressing up isn’t your thing, you’ll still find a variety of casual dining options and lounges to enjoy your evening your way.

Do I need to dress formally on board?

Expect space to breathe, time to unwind, and moments that surprise you. Life on board flows at your pace. Whether you’re lounging by the pool, attending a talk by an acclaimed author, or dressing up for a gala dinner, you’ll be looked after from the moment you arrive, with thoughtful touches at every turn.Visit our&nbsp;<a href="/the-cunard-experience/new-to-cruising" title="" target="_self">new to cruising page</a>&nbsp;for more information.

I’ve never cruised before, what should I expect?

It’s a level of care that goes beyond expectation. From remembering how you take your tea to offering a perfectly timed umbrella as you disembark, White Star Service is our promise: discreet, intuitive, and delivered with genuine warmth. It’s why so many guests return and why first-timers quickly feel at home.

What is White Star Service?

Cunard is one of the best-known cruise lines around the world, due to its long history of over 180 years. Cunard began in Halifax, Nova Scotia and has since sailed the first Transatlantic Crossing in 1840, and the first World Voyage in 1923, cementing our reputation as pioneers of ocean travel.
Apart from&nbsp;our incredible history&nbsp;(which you can discover with our&nbsp;<a href="https://prod.author.carnivalukgroup.com/content/cunard/master_website/en_GB/cunard-stories/180-years-of-cunard.html">special article celebrating our 180th year</a>) we at Cunard are proud of several other features that make us unique and a stand-out choice for your next ocean voyage.
Our flagship,&nbsp;<a href="https://prod.author.carnivalukgroup.com/content/cunard/master_website/en_GB/cruise-ships/queen-mary-2/9.html">Queen Mary 2</a>, is the&nbsp;last remaining ocean liner&nbsp;in service in the world. Her pointed bow and reinforced hull are specially designed to cut through the waves of the open sea, unlike her sisters who have flatter hulls better-suited to more sheltered waters. A&nbsp;<a href="https://prod.author.carnivalukgroup.com/content/cunard/master_website/en_GB/cruise-destinations/transatlantic-cruises.html">Transatlantic Crossing</a>&nbsp;on Queen Mary 2 is seen by people all over the world as one of the ultimate travel experiences.
Cunard also has a long-standing relationship with the British Royal Family. Not only are each of our current fleet named after British Queens, but a member of the Royal Family has also been involved in the naming ceremony of each one. Cunard has also welcomed members of the Royal Family on board for special events, and even sailings.&nbsp;
Our signature experiences are also features of a Cunard voyage that have long histories, but show no signs of going out of style. From our daily decadent&nbsp;<a href="https://prod.author.carnivalukgroup.com/content/cunard/master_website/en_GB/activity-types/dining.html">Afternoon Teas</a>&nbsp;to our glittering&nbsp;<a href="https://prod.author.carnivalukgroup.com/content/cunard/master_website/en_GB/activity-types/evening/gala-balls.html">Gala Evenings</a>, a Cunard voyage is unique and special in a way that surpasses expectations.
New dimensions are added to Cunard voyages in the form of knowledge and discovery, as our&nbsp;<a href="https://prod.author.carnivalukgroup.com/content/cunard/master_website/en_GB/activity-types/daytime/insights-and-enrichment.html">Insights guest speaker programme</a>&nbsp;offers glimpses into the worlds of literature, politics, theatre and exploration, to name a few. Here we have gone even further to offer special&nbsp;<a href="https://prod.author.carnivalukgroup.com/content/cunard/master_website/en_GB/cruise-types/event-cruises.html">Event Voyages</a>, centred around themes such as fashion, food and music, with additional workshops and concerts for our guests to enjoy.
Overarching all of these is our White Star service, a high standard which we set ourselves and for which we are famous all around the world.
