Three ships, one world
Cunard Line has undertaken more world voyages and sent more ships around the globe than any other shipping line, making them the true experts in World Voyages.
In fact the concept of World Cruising was invented by Cunard in 1922, when the elegant Laconia completed the first ever continuous circumnavigation of the globe by a passenger liner.
In keeping with this grand tradition, Cunard will operate full world voyages on all three magnificent Queens in 2017:
