2009 Voyage Program
May 19, 2008
Following simultaneous World Cruises in early 2009, Cunard Line’s flagship QUEEN MARY 2 and the new QUEEN VICTORIA will celebrate Cunard’s 170th year in service by embarking on a series of more than 60 departures calling on over 75 ports in 34 countries. Highlights of the 2009 schedule include additional QUEEN MARY 2 Transatlantic Crossings (including options to extend or embark a Crossing via Boston) and 11 new QUEEN VICTORIA itineraries featuring 18 maiden.
In commemoration of QUEEN MARY 2’s fifth year in service, the grand ocean liner will sail her first Around the British Isles itinerary, an eight-day journey featuring first-time calls to Liverpool, Glasgow, and Cork.
In addition, guests interested in an all-at-sea travel experience by sailing roundtrip to Europe from New York can do so aboard QUEEN MARY 2’s Grand Voyages of 20-24 days. These are available on her European itineraries by adding a legendary Transatlantic Crossing to the beginning and end of a voyage, affording guests an extended and more relaxing journey of a lifetime.
