Cunard extends ships suspension­s until 2021

- By NEIL LANCEFIELD

Luxury cruise line Cu na rd has extended the suspension of sailings for its three ships until next year.

Sailings are cancelled until 25 March for the Queen Elizabeth, until 18 April for the Queen Mary 2 and until 16 May for the Queen Victoria.

The firm had previously cancelled sailings until November 2020.

It said the decision to extended the suspension is due to “the complexity of operating world voyages” and the Foreign and Commonweal­th Office continuing to advise against cruise travel due to the coronaviru­s pandemic.

Cu na rd president Simon Palethorp e said: “We are so sorry to all those guests who were due to sail on any of the cancelled voyages and for the disappoint­ment this news will cause.”
