BERLITZ PLACES CUNARD AT THE TOP OF THE LIST OF MAJOR CRUISE LINES


Cunard Line has been named Number 1 among the top ten largest cruise lines in the new 2008 Berlitz Guide to Ocean Cruising & Cruise Ships. The Line also received top honors for Best Overall Food and Best Overall Service in the independent guide, which was written by renowned cruise authority Douglas Ward, whose expertise spans 960 sailings and over 5,400 days at sea on virtually every cruise line in the world.

Carol Marlow, Cunard’s President and Managing Director, says:

“It is especially gratifying to receive this recognition for our flagship Queen Mary 2 and much-loved QE2 as we prepare to launch our newest ship, Queen Victoria in December of this year. It is a very exciting time for Cunard, particularly with our recent announcement to build the new 2092-passenger Queen Elizabeth, which will debut in 2010.”

Douglas Ward, the world’s top authority on cruising and cruise ships, is President of the Maritime Evaluations Group, an independent international agency that rates cruise ships worldwide. With over 40 years of experience, he spends more than 250 days a year aboard cruise ships, inspecting and evaluating their facilities.
