As part of its summer program in Alaska, the Queen Elizabeth arrived in Vancouver today. Cunard’s ship will offer seven- to 13-night itinerary options for a second consecutive year in the region.
A 12-night Alaska and Canada cruise, for example, includes visits to nine destinations.
In Southeast Alaska, Haines is a less visited cruise port, while Victoria is one of the most popular in British Columbia.
A scenic cruise of Glacier Bay National Park, Tracy Arm Fjord, and Hubbard Glacier is also scheduled for the Queen Elizabeth before returning to Vancouver.
In addition to Ketchikan, Juneau, Sitka, and Icy Strait Point, the ship will stop at Ketchikan, Juneau, and Sitka during the season.
A repositioning voyage to Los Angeles concludes the Cunard ship’s Alaska program in mid-August.
Afterwards, a 14-night Panama Canal cruise will sail between California and Florida. Visits to Mexico, Costa Rica, and Aruba will also be included in the itinerary, in addition to a full transit of the maritime channel.
As well as a transatlantic cruise in early September, the ship will begin a fall program in the Mediterranean a month later.
A third consecutive summer program for the QE will be held in Alaska in 2024 following seasons in Australia and Japan.
In addition to more departures, the season will feature different itineraries between early June and mid-September.
