Voyages to go on sale this month 
 
VALENCIA, Calif., March 11, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Cunard will offer a series of 
UK voyages on Queen Elizabeth, providing a unique and luxurious staycation 
opportunity this summer for British guests. More details will be revealed later 
this month. 
 
Sailings will be from Cunard's home port of Southampton and will be in UK 
coastal waters, seeking out the very best of the summer sunshine. Cunard's 
flexible booking terms will be applicable for these voyages, so guests will be 
able to book with confidence. 
 
These new UK staycation voyages will replace a number of international sailings 
that unfortunately will be cancelled due to the current environment. 
 
"With the UK Government confirming that domestic travel is close on the 
horizon, we are introducing a series of exciting, shorter duration holidays for 
British residents looking for the perfect staycation in Cunard luxury this 
summer," said Simon Palethorpe, president, Cunard. "These will be sailings from 
Southampton, for UK residents, around the UK and will make the very most of the 
summer sunshine." 
 
"However, with international travel restrictions still in place, we 
unfortunately need to cancel a number of departures. We know how much everyone 
is desperately looking forward to longed-for holidays overseas, so to all 
affected by this news, I am sincerely sorry for the disappointment this will 
cause," added Palethorpe. 
 
Sailings on Queen Victoria are now cancelled for departures up to and including 
August 27, 2021. 
 
Queen Elizabeth's summer Mediterranean fly cruise season and all departures up 
to and including October 11, 2021 are cancelled. 
 
Queen Mary 2's current program is affected by a number of factors and all 
departures up to and including November 12, 2021 are cancelled. 
 
All guests whose cruises have been cancelled will automatically receive a 
Future Cruise Credit worth 125% of what they paid.  This 125% Future Cruise 
Credit can be redeemed against any new booking made by the end of December 
2021, on any cruise on sale at the time of booking.
