Cunard Cruises are well known for their comfort, style and tradition of elegance and grandeur. This is gracefully blended with every conceivable modern luxury you have to come to expect from modern day liners. A new ship has been commissioned to be built by Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri. The 92,000 ton liner is to be named ‘Queen Elizabeth’, quite fitting with Queen Elizabeth 2 currently on her farewell season this year. The cost of building the new Queen Elizabeth is estimated to be in the region of $500 million and will be the second largest Cunard ship ever built after the Queen Mary 2.
The new ship will be typically Cunard styled, with her black hull, gleaming white superstructure and distinctive red funnel and will ultimately echo the classic features of the company’s individual liner heritage. The new 2092 passenger liner is scheduled to enter service in the autumn of 2010.
