Cunard’s new Queen Anne, set sail from the Fincantieri Marghera shipyard in Venice to its homeport of Southampton for its maiden voyage departing on May 3.
The ship was delivered during a traditional handover ceremony and is expected to arrive in Southampton on April 30.
Queen Anne’s inaugural seven-night voyage will sail roundtrip from Southampton, making stops at La Coruna and Lisbon.
Cunard’s president, Katie McAlister, told the handover ceremony its distinctive style and elegant interior spaces would reflect the brand heritage: “we are immensely proud of Queen Anne. Not only does she reflect the Cunard distinctive style on the outside, the inside perfectly echoes the brand heritage with reimagined, elegant spaces and designs. We can’t wait to welcome guests on board for her maiden voyage on May 3.”
