Transatlantic Cruises
Experience an ocean journey unlike any other. A chance to escape the real world and indulge in life’s greatest pleasures. Where every day is yours alone and the world’s most iconic city awaits you on arrival. Welcome to the Transatlantic Crossing with Cunard.
Your Home from Home at Sea
Life on board a Cunard Transatlantic Crossing is all about freedom. Every day presents myriad choices but how much, or how little, you do is entirely up to you. Visit the planetarium, join a yoga class, dance the night away, or simply bury yourself in a good book. It's your time, and you'll always be free to spend it however you please.
Queen Mary 2 is one of a kind. Engineering marvel, work of art, and luxurious home from home: she's all of these and more. Stronger, smoother and swifter than a cruise ship, she was designed with a single purpose: to cross the Atlantic in unparalleled comfort and style. To step on board is to journey into another world, where everything revolves around you.
A transatlantic cruise is one of life’s experiences that is truly about the journey and not the destination. With Cunard, this means taking seven days to sail from Southampton to New York, or vice-versa, during which you’re invited to spend your time in any way you like. Relax knowing that there is nowhere you’re expected to be and nothing you’re expected to do. Should you be looking for even more time to enjoy life on a Cunard Queen, you could choose a round-trip Transatlantic Crossing, which is 14 or 15 nights long.
Queen Mary 2
Queen Mary 2 is 1,132ft in length and on deck 7 you’ll find an uninterrupted deck, allowing you to circle the full ship for a walk, run, or jog, all while taking in the beauty of the Atlantic Ocean. If running is not for you, perhaps put yourself to the test by taking on Zumba or dance classes to get your heartbeat racing. On the other hand, if fitness isn’t your go-to, perhaps you’d like to try becoming the next Van Gogh by enrolling in some art classes or sit in on fascinating Insight talks with guest speakers.
Maybe you’ve exhausted yourself with all the dance classes and jogging and need a little self-care. Queen Mary 2 offers some of the best spa treatments and facilities for you to unwind and relax with. Additionally, our Aqua Therapy Centre offers an additional refuge of health and wellbeing and is accessible with a spa day pass.
As well as facilities and treatments, you’ll also find enlightening seminars taking place at the spa. Learn about all manner of wellness subjects, from acupuncture and reflexology to taking care of different skin types.
Indulge yourself in various treats on board from a personal shopping experience to an unforgettable theatre show. You’re also invited to join Afternoon Tea – daily if you like - which comes with an assortment of sandwiches, scones, and cakes, served with tea or coffee. Otherwise, perhaps you wish to browse the boutiques on board, and maybe even take advantage of the personal shopping service, a unique experience tailored to you.
