Throughout our operational pause we’ve been reassuring you that the appetite for cruising remains strong. Yesterday we saw this appetite in action as Cunard released Queen Elizabeth’s new itineraries for 2021.
Between 11:00 and 17:00 nearly 4,000 Guests booked a voyage on Queen Elizabeth; that’s 9% occupancy based on the capacity available!
In a world where travel restrictions are changing on a daily basis and more people than ever are stay-cationing, this is an amazing achievement for Cunard and demonstrates a real demand for cruise holidays.
Positively, Queen Elizabeth’s brand new scenic voyages proved to be among the most popular itineraries, with the first two departures already being 46% and 35% booked. Guests have also chosen to sail on her seven night voyages from Southampton, along with her Barcelona to Australia itineraries.
This is an astonishingly strong day one performance on Queen Elizabeth’s newly released itineraries. It clearly demonstrates Guest loyalty, strong underlying demand and a confidence in sailing in the future.”
