(Alliance News) - FTSE 250-listed cruises operator Carnival PLC on Friday said Cunard is offering UK customers the opportunity to spend this summer at sea, with a series of UK voyages on board Queen Elizabeth.
Voyages will be round-trip from Southampton, between July and October, and comprise of British Isles scenic cruising and special sun voyages, lasting between three and twelve nights.
Carnival noted that, given the advanced progress of the UK vaccination programme, and strongly expressed preference on the part of its clients for this limited series of UK coastal cruises, these sailings on Queen Elizabeth will be for UK resident Covid-19 vaccinated guests only. All other voyages on sale currently do not require guests to be vaccinated.
Cunard President Simon Palethorpe said: "Cunard's Summer at Sea luxury UK voyages are a truly unique way for guests to have a much-needed break this summer. With international travel not yet fully opened up we're delighted to offer these voyages exclusively for British guests to experience a staycation unlike any other, as they relax in Cunard luxury knowing we will take care of everything."
