Queen Elizabeth's voyages invite
travelers to immerse themselves in a world of tidewater glaciers
and mirror-like waters, where each day in port offers guests the
freedom to step ashore and explore somewhere new.
Whether it be Ketchikan, with
its vibrant totem poles, Juneau,
where famous gold mines put this historic city on the map, or
Haines, a prime destination for
kayaking, Alaska is an
adventurer's paradise.
And not forgetting the beautiful UNESCO World Heritage Site of
Glacier Bay National Park and Hubbard Glacier, two gems in the
Alaskan crown.
Prices for a 10-night Seattle roundtrip to Alaska (Q620) in July
2026 currently start from $2069 per person based on two sharing a Britannia
Balcony stateroom.
Katie McAlister, President of
Cunard, said: "Alaska is a truly
unique destination, and we're delighted to return with our 2026
program. Sailing through its spectacular fjords and seeing the
immense glaciers is an experience like no other. On board, guests
can sip regionally inspired cocktails, enjoy cuisine influenced by
local flavors, and hear fascinating stories from renowned
explorers. These voyages promise to create unforgettable memories,
and we can't wait to welcome our guests on board Queen Elizabeth."
