AN EXPERIENCE NOT TO BE MISSED


We always though that a transatlantic cruise to New York was an extremely expensive way to spend either 6 nights on holiday or as a means of getting to New York. But when we came up with a price of just £69 pp for a 6 night Transatlantic cruise from Southampton to New York plus 2 nights hotel stay in New York and a return flight back to London - then a Transatlantic voyage has become an extremely attractive late holiday for this year. Particularly when it is on board the world famous and upmarket Cunard Queen Mary 2.

Not only is a great way to take a late holiday this year for 9 nights it is also extremely inexpensive -being less than a first class flight seat to New York and a great way to do some Christmas shopping and take in the sights of New York at the same time.

These are the lowest prices we have ever seen and is an experience not to be missed.

Our £699 price is available on 13th Oct this year or we have a £799 price on 22nd April next year.

Arriving and departing from New York is absolute fun and a highlight of the cruise.

On a West bound cruise from Southampton to New York it is a pleasure to board in Southampton and start your experience immediately without having to go through lengthy check in and security procedures at the airport then waiting around in the lounges before boarding your flight to the US. Your 5 days at sea are 25 hours long to make up for the time difference between the UK and the USA. Everyone gets up at 5 in the morning on the last day to watch the Statue of Liberty glide pass as the sun rises behind the picturesque Manhattan skyline. On arrival at Brooklyn ( only 20 minutes by taxi to Manhattan) you are in tune with US time and ready to enjoy a full day shopping , enjoying the sights and nightlife this city has to offer.

On an East Bound cruise from New York to Southampton and after a frantic time fitting all of the shopping and sightseeing in – it is an utter relief to board the Queen Mary 2.. Throughout your time in New York there is great realisation in the fact that you have not got to endure the laborious check in and security procedures at the airport then a cramped and impatient overnight flight back to the UK. Everyone joins in the sailaway party in the afternoon celebrating the farewell to New York and the ultimate landmark sailing under the bridge as the ships horn blows for a final goodbye to the continental USA. Each day on board your clocks are adjusted by an hour so that you arrive in Southampton in tune with UK time – with no jet lag!
