Cunard Line announced not long ago that it is adding a fourth ship to its fleet.  As part of the Carnival Corporation brand’s ambitious plans for the future of Cunard globally, the new ship will join the Cunard fleet in 2022.

“Cunard continues the legacy of our liners with the commissioning of a magnificent new ship. It’s an especially fitting time with the recent 50th Anniversary of the beloved Queen Elizabeth 2 marking the occasion. We are proud to share Cunard’s enduring luxury liner experience with future generations to be enjoyed the world over.” – Josh Leibowitz, Senior Vice President, Cunard, North America

The as yet unnamed ship will join Queen Mary 2, Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth as the fourth member of the Cunard fleet, the first time since 1998 that the luxury cruise brand will have four ships in simultaneous service.

The iconic and unparalleled luxury cruise brand is going from strength to strength, having seen crowds of more than one million people gather in 2015 to celebrate the company’s 175th anniversary. Cunard has subsequently invested over $172 million refurbishing the flagship Queen Mary 2 and Queen Victoria.

Alongside an array of exciting new itineraries featuring new destinations and special event voyages for 2018 and 2019, Cunard has also continued to evolve the guest experience to meet the needs of the luxury consumer by introducing new bar and dining signatures, entertainment offerings and brand partners across the fleet.   This video tells us more:

 

Cunard will be revealing exciting details about the new ship throughout 2018 and through to the ship’s launch. For now, these statistics:

• The new 113,000 GRT (Gross Registered Tonnage) ship will carry 3,000 guests and will be launched in 2022
• The new cruise ship will be the 249th ship to fly the Cunard flag since the company’s founding in 1839
• Cunard’s first new ship in 12 years, since the launch of Queen Elizabeth in 2010
• The first time since 1998 that the luxury cruise brand will have four ships in simultaneous service
