Cunard Cruises from Southampton

Sailing with Cunard from Southampton combines the ease of a no-fly cruise with one of the most distinctive experiences at sea. From short European escapes and Norwegian Fjords voyages to longer Mediterranean holidays and legendary Transatlantic Crossings, Cunard offers an unusually varied programme from the UK.

Southampton has played an important part in Cunard's history and remains at the heart of its modern programme. Depending on your itinerary, you could sail aboard Queen Mary 2, Queen Anne or Queen Victoria, each offering Cunard's signature White Star Service, refined dining and unmistakable sense of occasion.

From Southampton, Cunard offers everything from Norwegian Fjords and Mediterranean voyages to Northern Europe sailings and iconic Transatlantic Crossings to New York, with selected departures also featuring Event Voyages and festive itineraries.

Queen Mary 2's Transatlantic Crossing is unlike almost any other cruise from Southampton. Rather than treating the sea days simply as the journey between two destinations, the crossing is the experience itself, with uninterrupted time to enjoy the ship before arriving beneath the skyline of New York.

Selected crossings become even more distinctive with Cunard's Event Voyages. These specially themed sailings bring guest speakers, performers, workshops and curated events onboard, with programmes covering interests such as literature, music, theatre and culture. The days at sea give you time to immerse yourself in the programme while still enjoying everything Queen Mary 2 has to offer.

Whether you choose a traditional crossing or an Event Voyage, sailing between Southampton and New York aboard Queen Mary 2 remains one of Cunard's defining experiences and one of the most memorable ways to cross the Atlantic.

Make your Cunard voyage feel even more seamless with a Signature Package, bringing together some of the extras many guests choose to add before sailing. Depending on the package selected, this can include drinks, Wi-Fi and speciality dining credit, helping you plan more of your onboard spending in advance. It is a simple way to tailor your cruise around how you like to relax, dine and stay connected at sea, while keeping more of your holiday costs conveniently together.
