Cunard Names new Ship Queen Anne

 

Queen Anne - The New Cunard Ship

After much anticipation and considerable speculation, Cunard Line has today announced the name of their first new ship in over a decade.

Back in October 2019, before all the uncertainties of 2020, Cunard announced that their fourth ship was being built in the Fincantieri ship yard in Naples, and that a milestone had been met when the first steel of the new ship was cut. This is the 249th ship, in Cunard’s 180-year history. The ship was originally scheduled to debut early in 2022. However it was announced that due to the pandemic, ships due for delivery in 2022/23 were subject to delays.

We currently know very little about this new ship apart from the fact that a World class design team is working on it, and that it will be probably be a Pinnacle Class ship., at around 113,000 gt and a capacity of around 3000 guests.

Queen Anne will be Cunard’s 249th ship and will make up a remarkable quartet of Queen Mary 2, Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth. This will mark the first time since 2000 that Cunard will have four ships at sea. 

The name ‘Queen Anne’ celebrates Cunard’s rich heritage, royal history and refined status - joining a luxury contemporary fleet now honouring the names of each Queen Regnant over the last millennium. 

Queen Anne will feature reimagined Cunard signature spaces as well as the introduction of new guest experiences within dining, culture and entertainment, for an unparalleled cruise experience underpinned by outstanding White Star Service. Bridging tradition and contemporary luxury, Queen Anne celebrates the influential design styles of both past and present and introduces an updated Cunard livery.
