Cunard will base Queen Elizabeth in Australia in 2019.
Cunard has announced Queen Elizabeth will spend two months in Australian waters in 2019, the longest deployment down under for any of the line’s current fleet.
The vessel will operate seven different cruises from Sydney and Melbourne, including two trans-Tasman voyages, three to Tasmania and two stopping by South Australia.
The itineraries form part of Cunard’s 2019 world voyage program, which will be released on 14 Mar and go on sale 30 Mar.
Cunard vice president international development David Rousham said Queen Elizabeth‘s local 2019 season would offer a total of 27 combination itineraries.
“This will be the first time that Cunard has featured so many voyages to and from Melbourne in addition to Sydney, and will give Australians a much greater number of options to experience Cunard than ever before,” Rousham said.
