Why sail from Southampton with Cunard Cruises?

Southampton is one of the UK's leading cruise ports and a natural choice for travellers looking for a straightforward start to their holiday.

There are also dedicated car-parking facilities, coach drop-off points and taxi connections, making the journey to the ship simple and convenient.

Cunard describes its Southampton departures as a way to remove many of the complexities associated with airport travel, allowing guests to step aboard and settle into their holiday from the outset.

Cunard currently operates three of its Queens from Southampton: Queen Anne, Queen Mary 2 and Queen Victoria. Each offers its own character while retaining the elegant atmosphere, attentive service and sophisticated onboard experience associated with the Cunard brand.

Cunard's flagship is renowned for its Transatlantic Crossings between Southampton and New York, while Southampton departures on the wider Cunard fleet can also take guests to destinations including the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, Scandinavia and the Caribbean.

Cunard cruises from Southampton allow travellers from the UK to enjoy maximum convenience and comfort, without the need to worry about arranging flight transfers to start your holiday.
