"What we're doing on board Queen Anne not only is going to put Queen Anne out into the future, but during refits [of other Cunard ships], a lot of the work we're doing here ... will all filter back" to the other vessels, Fred explained. Next tables show the liner's first cruises (by destination/all roundtrips from Southampton, England UK) from Cunard's schedule announced in June and CANCELED in November 2022. The 107-night/108-day is roundtrip from Southampton (departure January 9, 2025) and visits 30+ ports/destinations (5 continents) offering 9 overnights and 3 late-evening departures. The 16-day North Sea trials were conducted in February 2024, under Captain Inger Thorhauge. The first sea trials included checking, extreme testing, assessing and calibrating all systems (power/engines, propulsion, stabilizers).
Cunard Queen Anne Review
The special event will take place short after sunrise and will be hosted by Mathew James Willis (1983-born English musician/singer/songwriter, TV personality, actor, co-founder and co-vocalist of Busted/pop-punk band) and Emma Louise Willis (1976-born English TV broadcaster). The boat's Master (Inger Klein Thorhauge) and some of the public areas were announced in March. Captain Thorhauge is Cunard Line's first female Captain and joined the company in 1997 as Second Officer on MS Vistafjord (1973-built/2017-scrapped as "Oasia", aka "MS Caronia" and "Saga Ruby"). For choosing the cruise liner's name Cunard asked for assistance/research the British historian Kate Williams (1974-born). She is also an author of several British Royal Family-related books, as well as a TV presenter (at BBC Two and BBC4 series) and expert historian who specializes in social, constitutional and royal history.

Experience the clear water coasts and sandy beaches of the Canary Islands with a voyage on Queen Anne. Explore the volcanic landscape of Lanzarote or the quaint coastal town of Fuerteventura. Find light-filled boutiques with stunning sea views housing covetable jewellery, clothing, accessories and gifts situated right in the heart of our newest ship. Queen Anne will carry 3,000 passengers and 1,245 crew and will be 113,000 gross tons. The new wellness and beauty concept -- a first for Cunard -- will have a contemporary, open and airy aesthetic. Mains include roasted wild turbot with tamarind chilli tomato; slow roasted beef short rib with caramelized red onion-cashew nut yogurt gravy; masala roasted cauliflower with wild mushrooms; and a pot sealed Biryani filled with Welsh lamb shoulder.

During the tour, Fred took us into the still-heavily-under-construction shell of a new Admiral's Lounge that will serve as the ship's central celebration space for events like weddings. In addition, Queen Anne's Commodore Club will be part of a larger complex of adult venues at the top of the ship that also include the ship's cigar lounge, known as Churchill's; its library; and an expanded area for onboard weddings and other shipboard celebrations (see more on this below). Also, one deck up overlooking the pool (and still under the dome), there will be a juice bar and a cafe serving healthy dishes — part of a bigger wellness focus at Cunard. For starters, the vessel's main pool area, The Pavilion, is topped with a retractable glass roof designed to be as much a showpiece as a functional structure to keep poolgoers dry on rainy days. But after a sneak peek Thursday at the three-ship brand's soon-to-debut fourth vessel, Queen Anne, I can confidently say it was worth the wait. MS Queen Anne ship's christening ceremony is currently scheduled for June 3, 2024, to be held dockside in during the celebratory "The British Isles Festival Voyage".

Like her fellow Queens, our newest ship leaves nothing to be desired when it comes to glittering bars and stylish lounges, with more choice than ever before. Mareel Wellness & Beauty arrives on Queen Anne with tranquil spa facilities inspired by the ocean itself, plus a unique wellness studio and café.
Accommodation is still available in all but the most premium suites for the second voyage, a 14-night Canary Islands itinerary. Queen Anne’s status as the first new Cunard cruise ship in 12 years adds even more intrigue. Mareel Wellness & Beauty will be a new top-deck wellness studio and a private spa suite, plus fitness, beauty, thermal and spa facilities.
The vessel's construction (Marghera yard/hull number 6274) officially started on October 11, 2019, with the steel-cutting ceremony held at Fincantieri's production yard in Castellammare di Stabia (near Naples). The special event was attended by Simon Palethorpe (Cunard's President), Gilberto Tobaldi (Fincantieri Castellammare Shipyard's Director) and Sam Shendi (British sculptor). In September 2017 was officially announced the planned addition of a 4th vessel to Cunard's fleet.
Explore staterooms and suites on board Queen Anne, with unique design touches and finishes, but always with the signature Cunard service we are so proud of. As the countdown begins to her arrival in May 2024, we look back at how our 249th ship has come together, from design back in 2019, to her sea trials earlier this year. Let tension dissipate in the tranquillity that awaits at the Mareel Spa, delight in the ceremony of our signature Afternoon Tea, and enjoy that extra special feeling as you descend into the Grand Lobby in your Gala Evening finery. Above all, rest easy in the knowledge that the finer details have been taken care of. Departing Hamburg on January 7, the 111-night voyage takes in Honolulu, Sydney, Penang, and the historic Suez Canal on its way around the world.
The 3,000-passenger ship is due to arrive in the Mersey soon after sunrise as part of a 14-night “British Isles Festival Voyage”, which departs Southampton on May 24.

In May 2024, almost 3,000 guests and more than 1,200 crew will set sail from Southampton on the maiden voyage of the Queen Anne, the 249th vessel in the storied history of Cunard Line. The ship will have 15 restaurants, including the main dining room Britannia Restaurant, which is on all the line's ships -- and the popular Golden Lion pub, which serves bar food. Carnival Corporation's Cunard cruise line announced it has taken delivery of its newest cruise ship, Queen Anne, from Italian shipbuilding group Fincantieri. In addition, Queen Anne passengers will be able to eat in casual comfort at the Artisan's Food Hall, a new take on the traditional buffet eatery on Cunard ships. As Fred showed off during the tour, it'll feature active food stations instead of traditional self-serve buffet lines.
From five-star restaurants and in-suite dining to inspiring guest speakers, the library and film screenings, every detail has been meticulously crafted to make the experience unforgettable. The new 3,000-passenger ship is set to embark on its maiden voyage on May 3 -- a seven-night sailing from Southampton to Lisbon. The vessel is also scheduled to celebrate a naming ceremony in Liverpool on June 3.
It will also offer reimagined top-deck spaces, and interior lounging and entertainment spaces that take the brand to a new level. If you're a longtime Cunard fan — or someone eyeing your first cruise with the brand — this is a vessel you'll want to try. The 14-deck, 113,300-gross ton Queen Anne will accommodate 3,000 guests in Cunard’s three traditional categories of service, Queens Grill, Princess Grill, and Britannia. Design highlights include a two-level Royal Court Theatre, 15 restaurants, several sports courts, and a wellness center, called Mareel Wellness & Beauty, offering a full spa and fitness area.
She will also boast the widest selection of fitness, beauty, thermal and spa facilities so far seen on a Cunard ship, with her reimagined Mareel Wellness & Beauty proposition heralding a new era of wellbeing at sea. The ship’s maiden British Isles Festival Voyage will call at Edinburgh, Invergordon, Greenock, Belfast, and finally Liverpool, where the naming ceremony will be held. Cunard has not yet revealed the name of the ship’s godmother or godfather, but an announcement is expected very soon. As the debut of Cunard’s first new ship in a decade approaches, the luxury line officially took delivery of Queen Anne at an Italian shipyard where she has been under construction for the last two years.

Cunard ships have previously attracted more than a million spectators to the banks of the Mersey, first for the maiden call of QE2 in July 1990 (pictured above), and in 2015 for the Three Queens ‘royal rendezvous’ in front of the Cunard Building to celebrate the line’s 175th anniversary.
