Cunard Announces Queen Victoria's Maiden World Cruise

Cunard’s third Queen will depart New York on January 13, 2008 on her "Pathway to the Explorers" maiden world cruise, calling on 36 cities in 23 countries. Every call, with the exception of Lisbon, will be a maiden call for Cunard’s new Queen Victoria ocean liner.

She will circumnavigate the globe in a westbound direction and, after her New York call, will transit the Panama Canal before making maiden calls to some of the world’s most famous cities. Queen Victoria will transit the Suez Canal before arriving into Southampton on April 22. Guests returning to New York will sail on Cunard's Queen Mary 2 on one of her six-day transatlantic crossings, arriving into the city on April 28.
