Travelers will be able to embark on more than 40 Cunard voyages departing between October 2026 and April 2027.

The cruise line’s four ships—Queen Mary 2, Queen Anne, Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth—will visit more than 100 destinations in 57 countries, including 62 UNESCO World Heritage sites. The vessels will also make 22 overnight stops and 26 late-evening departures, giving travelers more time to explore their favorite destinations.

Bookings open for Cunard World Club members on October 16. Then, on October 17, they’ll open to members of the public.

Guests who book before March 27, 2025, can enjoy early booking benefits like onboard credits, pre- and post-cruise transfers, hotel discounts, Champagne breakfasts and more.

Queen Anne, the line’s newest ship, will offer a 56-night “South America Discovery” voyage that sails round trip from Fort Lauderdale. Queen Mary 2, meanwhile, will explore destinations in Spain, West Africa, the Caribbean and beyond, and will also make a transatlantic crossing.

Queen Victoria will embark on a 109-night World Voyage in January 2027, a trip that includes maiden calls to Dakar, Senegal, and Durban, South Africa. Queen Elizabeth will homeport in Miami and embark on Caribbean cruises ranging from seven to 14 nights.

“Whether you're soaking up the excitement in Rio during Carnival or toasting New Year's Eve in Amsterdam, Cunard's voyages allow you to explore the world in unparalleled luxury,” says Katie McAlister, president of Cunard.
