What’s Special About Cunard? White Star Service and Much More.

When you step onto a Cunard ship, it feels like you’ve entered a grand English estate — greeted by white-gloved staff with the dignity and grace of a well-trained butler. It’s wonderfully refined, and people love it.

They offer the largest ballroom and library at sea, the only planetarium at sea, the first Todd English restaurant, performances and workshops by members of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, enrichment classes, black tie dinners, Royal Nights, theme balls, West End–style productions, Veuve Clicquot champagne cocktails, and more.
