Enjoy the renowned elegance, spacious luxury and impeccable service that have attracted discerning travellers to our famous Queens. Though White Star Service draws from our prestigious heritage, our fleet offers modern facilities and a wide range of unique entertainment and leisure options. 4 Our majestic flagship is one of the most famous ocean liners in the world — her sheer scale and elegance see to that. Encompassed within her graceful lines are 15 restaurants and bars, five swimming pools, a full-sized theatre, a casino, Canyon Ranch SpaClub,® a 3D cinema, three-and-a-half acres of deck space, the world’s first floating planetarium and the largest dance floor at sea. ® Queen Victoria is similar in size and layout to her sister ship, Queen Elizabeth, but has her own distinct personality and feel. Her classical décor has an Edwardian elegance — warm-toned and plush — executed with Cunard’s hallmark flair. She is the first ship in the world to offer private boxes at sea in the Royal Court Theatre. Grand in terms of size and decoration, Queen Victoria has a particularly engaging and intimate feeling throughout. ® Christened by her namesake Her Majesty the Queen in 2010, and the newest of our fleet, Queen Elizabeth’s design pays tribute to the art deco tradition. The heyday of Hollywood glamour is instantly evoked by her elegant wood panelling, gleaming chandeliers, marble flooring and beautiful decorative touches. For relaxation, head to the Garden Lounge — a large conservatory, based on the famous hothouses of Kew Gardens — and to the unique Games Deck, where you can enjoy the gentle pastimes of croquet, bowls and paddle tennis. Contact your Travel Consultant | Call Cunard at (800) 728-6273 | Visit Cunard.com 5 Feel welcome from the very first “good afternoon”. There’s something rather distinctive about the service on board a Cunard ship. You’ll recognise it from the very first greeting when you embark. It’s a combination of courtesy and confidence that says you’re in the hands of a very professional crew, made up of individuals who take great pride in making your stay on board unforgettable. You’ll hear it in the way your stateroom steward greets you by name and remembers details about your trip. You’ll see it in your waiter’s impeccable attention to detail. You’ll feel it in the way you relax the second you step on board. We believe great service is warm and sincere. It isn’t stuffy. It isn’t hurried. It’s always friendly, but never over-familiar. Great service takes its lead from you. At Cunard we call it White Star Service because it’s a shining example of how things should be done. 6 Afternoon tea in the Queens Room Contact your Travel Consultant | Call Cunard at (800) 728-6273 | Visit Cunard.com 7 Dine where your mood takes you. 8 If anything sums up the freedom of your cruise, it is the array of places to eat, from healthy to hearty, from light bites to haute cuisine. The only challenge is deciding what to order, when so much catches the eye. You’ll find classics like tender lobster or melt-in-themouth chateaubriand. Often what’s being offered reflects where you are in the world, as our chefs make use of fresh, local ingredients. Whether your accommodation means you’re dining in the Britannia® Restaurant or the Princess Grill or Queens Grill restaurants, everything is beautifully presented and offered with wines that complement your choice perfectly. You’ll also find many tempting vegetarian dishes and we’ll happily cater to most special dietary requirements.

There’s always time to learn more about your iPad or Skype in our iStudy Seminar. Our Cunard Insights enrichment programme. ® Rubbing shoulders with leading figures reaches new heights on a Transatlantic Crossing. You can hear history brought to life, meet a musical idol or discover the secrets of entrepreneurs. You might even be able to attend a question and answer session with that author you admire — your chance to find out what the inspiration was for your favourite character. 34 On your first evening aboard, as you edge away from Southampton or New York, you may find yourself on deck as the adventure begins. Ahead lies uninterrupted ocean and either seven or eight nights that will be filled with music, dancing, laughter and priceless moments that will stay with you for years to come. A sense of occasion every evening. Music and dancing all the way. There’s nothing quite like watching the sun set from the scenic Commodore Club, clinking flutes in the Veuve Clicquot Champagne Bar or the social hubbub of the Captain’s Cocktail reception. What’s on tonight’s menu? Chateaubriand or sea bass at your reserved restaurant table, reservations at Todd English restaurant to sample fine dining with a Mediterranean flavour or relishing every bite of the tasting menu at Lotus, whose delicacies include snow crab soup and duck spring rolls. Live music will be the backdrop to your Transatlantic Crossing. There are always string quartets, pianists and harpists to entertain you around the ship. A jazz trio ups the tempo in the Chart Room, or you can take your seat for a classical recital in Illuminations.® In the Queens Room, the full orchestra fills the floor, whether on Big Band nights or at the dazzling Royal Ascot Ball, when you can put the day’s tango lessons to good use. Of course you can always ‘stay out’ late at the G32 nightclub, open into the small hours. Transatlantic Crossings Evenings you’ll always remember. Feeling richly entertained. Anticipate the curtain going up at the Royal Court Theatre for another glittering performance. If you love energetic musical numbers, you’re in the right place too. Viva Italia! — celebrating the country’s music, style and culture — and the sensational Apassionata may be among the offerings. Equally, stand-up comedy, a magician or a late-night film might be your ideal evening viewing. The Golden Lion pub is where you can enjoy an evening of live piano and singing, or where you can try some karaoke. Of course, the Empire Casino always invites you to test your luck on the roulette wheels and blackjack tables.

With the opportunity to visit ancient ruins, bustling modern cities and serenely beautiful beaches, this great sea is yours to explore. Cannes is synonymous with glamour thanks to the annual film festival, and the town suits its reputation well. To feel every bit the film star, head to the Promenade de la Croisette, the iconic waterfront avenue that’s lined with palm trees. The Greek island of Rhodes is always a highlight, perhaps due to its constant sunshine or the amazing views as you sail into port. The Medieval Old Town, one of the best preserved in the world, beguiles with its maze of cobbled streets. Away from the city of Rhodes, the island offers much. The town of Lindos with its ancient acropolis is a particular highlight. The Corsican capital of Ajaccio is easily explored on foot and is full of history, thanks to its famous son — Napoleon Bonaparte. With a strong French identity, you’ll find pâtisseries, cafés and boutiques that wouldn’t seem out of place in Paris. The Mediterranean offers countless places of interest and beauty. Explore on a 7- to 12-night cruise, or for the best value and more ports to experience, choose a 14- or 21-night Voyagers Collection sailing. Our Southampton voyages also provide an interesting option for your travels. Around this sea where so many countries meet, your discoveries can match your interests wherever you touch shore. And there’s no better way to explore the Mediterranean than with a Cunard Queen. Combine voyages for additional savings. Many of our 7-night itineraries have been designed to provide you opportunities to link these voyages for a more in-depth exploration. When you combine consecutive 7-night voyages, you’ll receive additional savings of 5% or more*.

And the further north you venture, the more rugged and dramatic the scenery becomes. Several capitals await around the Baltic Sea, including Stockholm, Copenhagen and Tallinn. Of Stockholm’s many impressive gems, the Vasa Museum is a must see destination and contains a beautifully restored warship that sank in 1628. St. Petersburg and Tallinn are both stunning cities in their own right. Russia’s cultural capital, St. Petersburg is a vision of tsarist palaces and cathedral domes. The world-famous Hermitage Museum will enthral, and our shore excursions can afford exclusive access after hours. 64 Farther north, Norway’s glassy fjords, electric blue glaciers and pounding waterfalls leave a lasting impression. Traditional clapboard buildings in Bergen and Stavanger complete the perfect fjords image, while Norway’s Viking heritage adds extra interest. Perched on the most northerly tip of Denmark sits Skagen, renowned for its remarkable light that attracted artists and tourists alike in the late 19th Century. Reykjavik in Iceland offers many delights, despite it being one of the smallest capital cities in the world. ◆ The Fjords The Fjords 9 nights 7 nights ◆ 22 May 2016 ◆ V605N† 7 nights ◆ 22 Jul 2016 ◆ Q611 ◆ 14 Jun 2016 ◆ Q608 Alesund Geiranger Flam Bergen Geiranger Flam Bergen Stavanger Stavanger Southampton H Overnight Northern Europe Roundtrip Southampton Roundtrip Southampton Southampton †Includes Olden instead of Flam.

New York appears on every North American itinerary, and with good reason. The city that never sleeps pulses with a unique energy that has to be experienced. New England has much to offer too. Boston played a key role in American Independence, a fact marked by monuments and historic buildings throughout the city. Of course the city is also linked with Cunard, being one of the ports of call on our first Transatlantic Crossing in 1840. Further north, Sydney in Nova Scotia will delight. Situated on Cape Breton Island, you might be surprised to hear Gaelic being spoken and Celtic music being 72 played — testament to the town’s industrial past that attracted immigrants from Scottish shores. Natural beauty abounds — particularly in the Bras D’or Lakes region. Halifax wears its past on its sleeve, or at least within the walls of its star-shaped citadel. Quebec is North America’s only walled city. Decidedly French in language and character, its street cafés and antique shops huddle under the gaze of the magnificent Château Frontenac.

From serene islands to bustling cities, there is a wealth of exciting adventures to experience on any voyage you select. Visiting places on far-away continents is an unforgettable event, especially from the comfort and elegance of a majestic Queen. Each ship begins its journey in Southampton on the same day and then traces an epic route to an array of iconic destinations before returning to Southampton, making the most difficult part of your Cunard experience deciding which course to sail. Contact your Travel Consultant | Call Cunard at (800) 728-6273 | Visit Cunard.com 77 Our epic adventure, started over 90 years ago. Leading the way around the world. Around 90 years after Cunard established the first-ever scheduled service across the Atlantic, another one of our ships would change ocean travel forever. In 1922, the American Express Company exclusively chartered Laconia to visit the waters that Magellan’s fleet had explored four centuries earlier. The idea was designed with a new type of traveller in mind, one with the time for leisurely sightseeing voyages and a taste for the finer things in life. Growing numbers of British and American guests wished to discover famous sights even farther afield, across the Pacific, the Far East, India and ancient Egypt. The ‘round-the-world’ voyage was born. An adventurous spirit that continues today. Early versions of these voyages involved more than one ship and crossing the US by rail. Laconia’s 130-day, 22-port historymaking voyage was the first continuous circumnavigation by a passenger liner. It has become one of Cunard’s traditions, and we have now completed more World Voyages than any other cruise company. On 10 January 2016, our three ships will offer their own interpretations of this thrilling annual event. Promenade Deck, Laconia 78 A Full World Voyage is quite unlike any other travel experience and is considered by some to be the ultimate holiday. Alternatively, if you have less time on your hands or have a particular interest in one region you could join us for an exotic cruise for a month or just a few weeks. Laconia World Voyages Contact your Travel Consultant | Call Cunard at (800) 728-6273 | Visit Cunard.com 79 Your choice of adventure. A World Voyage represents one of life’s great travel adventures; something that hasn’t changed since the beginning of this remarkable journey. The magic of travelling among the world’s iconic destinations on board some of the world’s most luxurious ships simply cannot be matched. To spend over three months seeking out incredible places always creates a reason for excitement, a feeling of being part of an exceptional event. Queen Mary 2 sets off from her home port of Southampton on 10 January 2016 on a westbound circumnavigation that rounds Cape Horn and lasts 120 nights. In that time she will sail over 41,000 nautical miles and visit 38 ports of call in 26 different countries. She has overnight stays in vibrant Rio de Janeiro, beautiful Montevideo, cultural Sydney and the jewel in the Emirates, Dubai — perfect for an in-depth exploration of these iconic cities. Her seven maiden calls stretch around the globe from Mo’orea in French Polynesia to Haifa in Israel and Hanoi in Vietnam. To really soak up the atmosphere, you can also enjoy late evening departures in five cities from Pape’ete in French Polynesia to Shanghai, China to Colombo in Sri Lanka. Even Queen Mary 2’s return to Southampton is something to look forward to, as she joins Queen Elizabeth and Queen Victoria on 10 May 2016. 80 World Voyages Queen Victoria’s World Voyage is a full westbound circumnavigation of the globe that lasts 120 nights. Departing on 10 January 2016 alongside her sisters Queen Elizabeth and Queen Mary 2, she will sail almost 40,000 nautical miles and visit 37 ports in 22 different countries. Queen Victoria’s route takes her across the Atlantic and through the Panama Canal before calling at Los Angeles and San Francisco. Crossing the mighty Pacific Ocean, you’ll visit a string of island paradises en route to New Zealand and Australia. Bali, Hong Kong and Singapore await before calls to the Seychelles and Mauritius break the journey across the Indian Ocean ahead of your arrival on the African coast. Finally you’ll begin heading north for home, but not before calls to the Cape Verde Islands and the Canaries. Queen Victoria’s journey around the world takes her to nine maiden ports of call, including Cape Town and Port Elizabeth in South Africa and Kangaroo Island in Australia. Additionally you can enjoy three overnight calls, allowing you to explore San Francisco, Sydney and Cape Town in more detail. There are also seven late departures, giving you more time to soak up the atmosphere of remarkable cities across the globe. Queen Elizabeth offers a unique take on a World Voyage as she charts a southerly course from Southampton, bound for South Africa. Her journey sees her crossing the Indian Ocean before visiting Australia and heading as far as Yokohama in Japan. From there she offers a string of stops in the Far East, India and the Middle East, with calls in Dubai and Oman. A passage through the Suez Canal and into the Mediterranean beckons before a northerly route takes her back to Southampton on 10 May 2016. Over a span of 121 nights, Queen Elizabeth will sail in excess of 36,000 nautical miles and visit 42 ports of call in 25 countries. She has overnight stays in Cape Town (double overnight), Sydney and Singapore and no fewer than 15 maiden calls. Additionally, you could enjoy 12 late departures which will give you time to experience selected destinations into the evening — offering a very different perspective on some fascinating cities and some truly spectacular night time departures.

To ensure the most superb vacation possible, you’ll want to be sure you’re well prepared before you depart. Here are answers to some of the questions you may have about a Cunard cruise. For more details on any of these questions, please visit Cunard.com, contact your Travel Consultant or call Cunard at (800) 728-6273. What’s included in my fare? What about third or fourth guests? All fares include accommodations as booked, onboard meals* and entertainment. Fares are per person based on double occupancy and are cruise only, excluding air and transfers. Fares do not include Taxes, Fees and Port Expenses, gratuities, CunardCare travel protection or incidental charges such as laundry, bar expenses, spa and salon treatments, shore excursions, etc. Fares for third and fourth guests in a stateroom vary by ship, sailing and stateroom category. All third and fourth guests pay the same fare, including children (except children under two years of age travelling as a third or fourth guest who are not required to pay cruise fare). Not all staterooms and suites are equipped for additional guests; please consult the deck plans for more information. Is there an advantage to reserving early? Are children welcome on Cunard? Yes. When you reserve early, you have access to a greater selection of accommodations, ensuring you get just the stateroom or suite you prefer on your cruise. Children at least six months of age are welcome on Europe cruises, except Icelandic sailings where the minimum age is one year. For North America, Canada and Caribbean cruises, the minimum age is six months. For Transatlantic Crossings, Transpacific sailings, World and Exotic voyages, the minimum age is one year. We offer a full children’s programme, from nursery to teens, so families can share this special journey together. How does tipping work? During your cruise, you will receive service from many members of our staff in a variety of locations. For your convenience a gratuity will be added to your shipboard account on a daily basis for each guest (including children). The gratuity will be shared amongst those staff that helped provide and support your cruise experience, including the restaurant staff, stateroom stewards and accommodation staff, buffet stewards and others. Casino personnel and youth staff do not share in the gratuity as not all guests utilise this service. Please note, this is a suggested gratuity and, should you wish to remove it or make any adjustments, you may contact the Purser’s Desk before the end of the cruise. Grills accommodations: $13.50 USD per person per day† Britannia accommodations: $11.50 USD per person per day† What about gratuities in the bars? A 15% gratuity is added to your bar charges and dining room wine account. This is shared amongst the beverage staff and their support staff. What if I’m travelling by myself? Cunard welcomes single travellers on every cruise. There are countless ways to meet interesting people during your cruise — by attending the ‘Welcome Cocktail Party,’ by choosing to sit at a larger table for dinner and through activities like lectures and Bridge classes. For ladies travelling alone, Gentleman Dance Hosts make great dance partners. Single staterooms are available. For those who wish to travel as the sole occupant of a double occupancy stateroom, the following single supplements typically apply: For Grills categories (Q1 – Q7 and P1 – P2), singles pay 200% of double-occupancy fares. For all other categories (A1-IF), singles pay 175% of double-occupancy fares. Please be aware that supplements may vary and are subject to change without prior notification. Frequent enquiries Frequent enquiries. We provide supervised activities for children aged two to 17 years throughout the day as well as free group supervision in the evening. Our ships are excellent family destinations, because we offer a range of entertainment and activities for children, all of which is tailored to suit specific age groups. Our children’s clubs — The Play Zone, The Zone and The Teen Zone — are complimentary and offer the peace of mind of knowing that your children are well looked after and can socialise with other young people. These clubs are open on a daily basis and feature secure entry systems to allow authorised entry. There are ‘sign in’ and ‘sign out’ procedures for the 2-12 year olds, including a registration form which must be completed for every child before they attend the programme. We recommend that you attend one of the initial registration sessions on embarkation day so your child can be registered from the first session. On all our ships we offer a night nursery for children aged six months to 23 months, which is available from 6.00pm to 11.00pm. We will give you a pager should we need to contact you. The night nursery is free of charge and is offered on a first come, first served basis. A child travelling as the second guest in a stateroom requires payment of the published per-person fare. In order to provide adequate activities and facilities for our younger guests, the number of children on a specific cruise may be limited; please contact Cunard for details. Guests under the age of 18 are not permitted to gamble or enter the casino. Guests who are under 18 years of age are not permitted to purchase or consume alcohol on board. While in U.S. waters, Cunard Line enforces and abides by the U.S. legal drinking age of 21 years. Are service animals/guide dogs welcome? Cunard is pleased to permit individuals to bring service animals on board. You must provide notice of this at time of booking. Local laws or customs may prevent animals from disembarking at (Continued next page) *Excludes certain specialty areas of Kings Court and Lido in the evening, The Verandah and Todd English where surcharges apply. †Charges may vary or change without notice. Contact your Travel Consultant | Call Cunard at (800) 728-6273 | Visit Cunard.com 119 Frequent enquiries, continued particular ports or countries. It is the guest’s responsibility to consult local customs authorities for requirements and to obtain all applicable documents and health certificates. Service animals are kept in staterooms with their owners. Non-service animals are only carried on Queen Mary 2 Transatlantic Crossings, in kennels, and are not allowed to visit any guest area of the ship. Can guests with disabilities travel? All guests requiring specific assistance, facilities or equipment on board, or wishing to bring such equipment on board, must advise Cunard Line at the time of booking and are requested to complete a questionnaire after booking to ensure we have all the information we need to cater adequately for your requirements. If you need to bring a wheelchair or mobility scooter on board with you, it is essential that you let us know at the time of booking or as soon as the need is known. Any guests requiring the use of a wheelchair, mobility scooter or other aids to mobility must provide their own. For the safety of everyone on board and the ship, all wheelchairs, scooters and other aids to mobility, as is the case with all other guest possessions, must be stored inside your stateroom when not in use. Failure to comply with this important safety rule may mean you will be disembarked and refused future travel. A part-time wheelchair user travelling in a non-wheelchair accessible stateroom must bring a collapsible wheelchair to ensure it can safely fit through the stateroom door and be accommodated in the stateroom. It is not possible to make structural changes to the stateroom layout. Cunard Line reserves the right to require guests who have booked this accommodation without legitimate reason to move, at their own expense, if necessary. Mobility scooters will only be permitted on board if guests have booked into a wheelchair accessible stateroom, or a suite, as these are the only types of accommodation where mobility scooters can safely be stored. The minimum door width of suites is 53 cm (21 in). The minimum door width of the wheelchair accessible staterooms is 80 cm (31 in). At the time of booking, please let us know if you intend on bringing a mobility scooter with you, and we will in turn provide you with a questionnaire for completion to ensure that the accommodation you have booked is appropriate. Please note that our wheelchair accessible staterooms are strictly reserved for guests who are bringing wheelchairs or mobility scooters or who have a requirement for the adapted facilities offered by these staterooms. A ship is not always the easiest environment for using a wheelchair or mobility scooter. Although our crew is helpful, they are only able to provide limited assistance to help you in moving around the ship. For this reason, and in order to ensure the safety of the guests, the ship and all others on board, we recommend that guests with disabilities who require personal assistance in the activities of daily living, including pushing a wheelchair or communication support, be accompanied by a personal assistant/travelling companion to provide these services. Blind/Visually Impaired guests are recommended to travel with a companion who can help you get your bearings and assist you both on board and ashore. Our crew can provide limited arm assistance and information or directions, but we cannot provide sustained or long-term assistance. Please note that, due to applicable safety requirements, the design of the ship or port infrastructure and equipment, in certain ports of call it may not be possible for us to offer a shore excursion programme, or shuttle bus service, suitable for guests who are not able to board a coach via the steps with only the aid of their travelling companion. Cunard Line reserves the right to refuse passage to any guest who has failed to notify Cunard Line of their requirement for special treatment or assistance (including the requirement to use a wheelchair or mobility scooter). For further information about travelling with disabilities, please contact our specialist Care Access Team at (800) 728-6273 (Monday-Friday 8am-5pm PT) or contact us by email at [email protected]. 120 Before you sail. How can my loved ones reach me on board? Friends and family can reach you by email, which you will be able to check in the ship’s Internet Centre or via your laptop with WiFi access in the staterooms and public areas (service charge applies). In addition, mobile phones may be used on board — check with your service provider before you leave to confirm you have international roaming service enabled. To connect with Queen Elizabeth, Queen Victoria or Queen Mary 2, please call (001) 732-335-3272 for calls originating outside the U.S.; for calls from the U.S., please dial (877) 266-0985. These numbers connect to the Maritime Telecommunications Network automated voice response where you will be prompted to enter your credit card number and expiration date. Your call will be charged a rate of $9.50 USD/minute upon connecting to the ship. Calls on the network are limited to a maximum of 10 minutes per call. What do I wear on board during the day? You’ll need to pack a range of cooler to warmer clothes, depending on your itinerary and the time of year you travel. On board during the day, you’ll probably find yourself most comfortable in stylish casual wear, including shorts and smart jeans. Swimwear, micro shorts, sarongs and gym wear should be reserved for the poolside, on deck or in the spa and fitness centre. We request that swimwear be covered up before entering any enclosed areas. What about shore attire? Be comfortable but please remember to respect the cultural dress norms of your hosts when visiting houses of worship. A lightweight raincoat and umbrella never go amiss! Finally, a pair of comfortable walking shoes (plus a spare pair of glasses) will always stand you in good stead. Do I have to dress for dinner every evening? Evening attire is effective from 6pm. Dressing up elegantly for dinner is one of the great thrills of a Cunard vacation, yet we also want our guests to feel relaxed. So each evening our dress code will either be formal or informal, details for which can be found on your Voyage Personaliser at vp.cunard.com. The evening dress code will also be specified in your ship’s Daily Programme, which is delivered to your stateroom each day. On formal nights, guests wishing to dress more casually are welcome to dine in the Kings Court or Lido main buffet restaurant and relax in the Winter Garden or Garden Lounge bar. Please be respectful of fellow guests by avoiding the more formal areas of the ship, including our Alternate Dining restaurants. Please note that after 6pm, shorts, blue or worn denim (for men and women), sandals and sleeveless tops (for men) are not considered appropriate within any of the ship’s public areas. Formal: Dinner jacket, tuxedo or dark suit with tie for gentlemen. A range of gentlemen’s formal wear is available to hire on board. Evening or cocktail dress for ladies. Informal: Jacket required, tie optional for gentlemen. Cocktail dress or stylish separates for ladies. No jeans or shorts. Can I arrange to have someone handle my luggage to and from the ship? We offer White Star Luggage Service,™ which is provided by a reputable carrier and is available exclusively to our guests. Continental U.S. reservations should be secured at least 35 days prior to sailing date. Service can be requested within 35 days of sailing at an additional cost and is based on destination and availability. Please note you can purchase luggage transfer service home while on the ship. Additional terms and conditions apply. Call (888) 491-0774 for more information. Whilst on board. How many formal nights are there? Formal nights are one of the most distinctive parts of the Cunard experience and are a great opportunity to socialise with like-minded Is there Internet connection on board? Yes, you may access the Internet in each ship’s Internet Centre. Guests with laptops may access the web via our wireless network, available in every stateroom as well as many public rooms. Charges apply for these services. Will I need money on board? For your convenience, we operate a “cash-free” system where you simply sign for all purchases using your personal identification key card, which is provided at check-in. This card is also your pass on and off the ship. It should be signed immediately and kept securely about your person at all times. You may choose to settle your account by credit card, registered at check in, or with cash. If settling with cash you will, however, need to keep your account in credit at all times. Please note we do not accept Personal Checks, Travellers Checks or Pre-Paid Credit Cards on board. Will I be able to clean my clothes on board? Yes. Full laundry and dry cleaning services are available on board and will be billed to your stateroom. Complimentary self-service washers, dryers and ironing facilities are also available. Are there medical facilities on board? Yes, but these basic medical facilities are equipped primarily to deal with illness and accidents and are not intended to provide ongoing treatment of pre-existing conditions. If you happen to be taken ill whilst cruising with us and your condition were so serious that we needed to get you to shore, you would be placed into the care of our port agents and a member of our team ashore would stay in contact with you and provide support if required. Please note, however, that all medical services on board are charged for. If you anticipate a need for medical services aboard the ship, your special requirement must be advised to us in writing before your booking can be finalised. Because medical facilities are limited and shoreside medical care is not always readily available, we will not be able to carry guests who will be 24 weeks or more pregnant by the end of the intended cruise. What is the smoking policy on board Cunard ships? The safety, comfort and enjoyment of all our guests has always been a key concern at Cunard. With this in mind, and as a direct result of the feedback we have received from our guests, we have amended our policy with regard to smoking on board Cunard ships. Smoking is no longer permitted in any public area with the exception of Churchill’s Cigar Lounge, designated areas on the open decks and the upper level of G32 on Queen Mary 2. Pipe and cigar smoking is only permitted in Churchill’s Cigar Lounge and on the permitted open deck spaces. Smoking is not permitted in staterooms or on stateroom balconies. Electronic cigarettes may be used in staterooms and on stateroom balconies, however, they are not permitted in non-smoking public areas. Electronic cigarettes that do emit a vapour should be used in designated smoking areas only. Are there any other places to eat on board? All ships offer alternative dining options, which are available to everyone: Queen Elizabeth — Golden Lion, Café Carinthia, The Verandah restaurant, the Garden Lounge and the Lido buffet with alternative dining options Asado ( South American), Aztec (Mexican Grill Classics) and Jasmine (Asian). Queen Victoria — Golden Lion, Café Carinthia, The Verandah restaurant, Winter Garden and the Lido buffet with alternative dining options Bamboo (pan Asian), Coriander (Indian) and Prime (seafood and steak). Queen Mary 2 — Golden Lion, Boardwalk Café, Todd English restaurant, Winter Garden, Sir Samuel’s and the Kings Court buffet with alternative dining options La Piazza (Italian), The Carvery (traditional British) and Lotus (pan Asian). Advance bookings are required for Todd English on board Queen Mary 2, The Verandah restaurant on Queen Elizabeth and Queen Victoria, as well as the speciality dining options in the evening offered in the Lido and Kings Court respectively. These dining options carry a nominal charge. Room service is also available 24 hours a day. What if I need a special diet? Frequent enquiries travellers. The number of formal nights varies by cruise and will be detailed in your pre-cruise documents. Cruises typically have two to five formal nights depending on length and number of sea days. Of course, single travellers are welcome at all events, and Gentleman Dance Hosts are on board to waltz and salsa with single ladies. Please advise us of your needs six months prior to departure or at the time of booking, whichever is closer to your departure date. Whilst every effort is made to ensure that special dietary requests are met, please note this cannot be guaranteed. Kosher — For guests who require Kosher food, we are pleased to provide this for dinner only. Please advise us at the time of booking where we will send you a menu to make your selection; this must be returned no later than four weeks prior to departure. Unfortunately we are unable to offer Kosher food for bookings that are made less than four weeks prior to embarkation. Are there any bars or lounge areas on board? On all ships there is a Commodore Club, Golden Lion pub, The Pavilion, Queens Room (Afternoon Tea) and Churchill’s Cigar Lounge plus: Queen Elizabeth — Café Carinthia, Midships Bar and Lounge, the Garden Lounge and the Yacht Club (nightclub). Queen Victoria — Café Carinthia, Hemispheres (nightclub), Midships Bar and Lounge, Veuve Clicquot Champagne Bar and Winter Garden. Queen Mary 2 — Chart Room Lounge and Bar, G32 (nightclub), Veuve Clicquot Champagne Bar and Winter Garden. Do you hold emergency drills on board? Cunard ships are among the safest afloat. An emergency drill for guests will be held before the ship sails from her embarkation port on each cruise. Attendance at these drills is mandatory in accordance with International Maritime Law. In your stateroom, you will find a black folder containing safety information which describes the emergency procedures and designates the route for the passenger assembly station to which you have been assigned. In addition to actively participating in the drills, you are urged to study this information carefully and familiarise yourself with the use of life jackets, which are provided for every guest. Children’s life jackets are available from your stateroom steward. Can I bring alcohol on board? You may bring wine or champagne on board to celebrate special occasions. However if it is consumed in any of the dining rooms, alternative restaurants or bars then each bottle will be subject to a corkage fee. Will I be able to attend religious services? A Catholic Priest will be permanently on board Queen Mary 2 and on board Queen Elizabeth and Queen Victoria during major religious holidays. A Rabbi will also be on board during major religious holidays. Non-denominational services are conducted at sea. During cruises coinciding with a major religious holiday, ecumenical clergy will be aboard to conduct services. Contact your Travel Consultant | Call Cunard at (800) 728-6273 | Visit Cunard.com 121 Going on shore. Mobility ashore. When choosing your cruise, please bear in mind that it may not be possible for wheelchair users to get ashore at certain ports of call. At the majority of ports visited by our ships, we deploy a short ramped low-level gangway, commonly referred to as the ship’s brow. This is normally due to ports with a large tidal range, where a relatively shallow ramp may unavoidably become too steep to use safely during the course of the day with tidal movements. Some examples of ports with a large tidal range (but not an exhaustive list) are Bilbão, Brest, La Coruña, Le Havre, La Rochelle, Lisbon, Vigo, Zeebrugge, Canary Island ports, Hamburg, Boston, Halifax, Portland, Québec, Darwin, Lisbon, Mumbai and San Francisco. At ports where it is not possible to use the ship’s brow, all access to shore will be by a narrow stepped gangway, known as the accommodation ladder, that pivots to take account of the tide. When the accommodation ladder is in use, you will need some independent mobility in order to walk down the gangway. Each of our ships carries a wheelchair “stair climbing” machine which, where appropriate, may be used to allow wheelchair users to go ashore provided they transfer between their own wheelchair and the wheelchair that is fitted to the stair climber at the top and bottom of the accommodation ladder. The stair climber cannot be used with electric wheelchairs — these will need to be taken ashore separately. How long will I be in port? Unless stated otherwise, the ship will be in port for a full day. This means the call will be a minimum of 7 1/2 hours and a maximum of 11 hours. Some ports of call are for a half day, which will usually be a minimum of four hours and a maximum of seven hours. Times will vary according to the cruise and port. Late evening departures will leave port after 9.00pm. For full itineraries and port times please visit Cunard.com. Please note that the timings are guidelines only and the actual times may vary. Details of the estimated times of arrival and departure will be provided on board. How do I plan my shore excursions? A brochure explaining all the shore excursions that will be offered on your cruise will be included with your preliminary cruise documents. Many shore excursions have limited space, so reservation requests will be processed in the order received. Therefore, we encourage you to reserve tours as early as possible, using the Voyage Personaliser at vp.cunard.com/voyagepersonaliser, contacting your Travel Consultant or calling Cunard at (800) 728-6273. Shore excursions need to be paid in full at the time of reserving them. When excursions are fully booked, additional requests will be placed on the waiting list in the order received. Your tickets will be delivered to your stateroom on embarkation day. Consult your Daily Programme for information about getting ashore and time spent in port. You may also view ‘Port Talks,’ our onboard televised briefings with general information and shore excursions highlights for each port. Our onboard tour staff can assist you in creating private tours or, if you have a large group (40 or more), offering existing shore excursions, tailor-made excursions and/ or foreign language guides. Shore excursions are operated by local, independent companies, not by Cunard. How do I get foreign currency to spend when going ashore? You will be able to obtain suitable foreign currency for most ports of call on board. This can be purchased using cash. You are also able to purchase foreign currency using your onboard account. You can reexchange your unused foreign currency, but only in the denominations sold on board (subject to onboard exchange rates). We are unable to accept foreign coins. All foreign currency transactions are exchanged using the U.S. Dollar. Environmental statement. At Cunard we take our environmental responsibilities very seriously and are committed to reducing our environmental impact. We are dedicated to preserving the marine environment in which we operate, and therefore believe it is our duty to introduce environmental practices which set a high standard of excellence and responsibility. To support our aim we have developed an environmental management system independently certified to ISO 14001, which is the most widely recognised global standard for improving environmental performance. We recognise that without appropriate treatment the waste generated on board our ships, together with the fuel and other products we use to transport, feed, entertain and take care of you could have an impact on the environment. Our waste treatment facilities ensure that all waste water is appropriately managed to minimise its impact upon the oceans. All general waste is treated on board to reduce its volume prior to landing ashore, and wherever possible general waste is recycled. We are reducing our air emissions through the implementation of fuel efficiency measures, including improved hull coatings, low energy lamps, increased recirculation of waste heat and improved efficiency in air conditioning, and we continue to explore new technologies. Through these measures and other initiatives Cunard will ensure that we help preserve our environment for future generations. Special offer for veterans and retired and active military. Cunard honours military personnel with up to $250 Complimentary Onboard Credit,^^ depending on cruise length. This offer can be combined with other promotions and used on any cruise, at any time of the year and to anywhere we sail! For more details and qualifying military branches, contact your Travel Consultant, call Cunard at (800) 728-6273 or visit Cunard.com/Military. ^^ 122 Cunard World Club. A whole world of benefits.

Responsibility Transportation of guests and baggage on Cunard is governed by the Cunard Passage Contract, a copy of which will be included with your preliminary documents and is also available upon request. The Passage Contract represents the entire agreement between Cunard and the guest. It is important that you carefully read the entire Passage Contract, as it sets out the rights and responsibilities of Cunard and the guest. Cunard shall have the right to cancel or alter in any way any scheduled sailing or itinerary which, in its sole judgment and discretion, is justified for any reason and to do so without liability for damage or for any loss to guests. Cunard also reserves the right, in the event of a full-ship charter or for any other reason, to cancel reservations and bookings whether or not a deposit or full payment has been received. In such an event, Cunard’s only liability will be to refund to guests the amount it has received. The guest is responsible for arriving at the respective ports on time for embarkation and for joining the vessel at its next port of call if, for any reason, a scheduled sailing is missed. Cunard reserves the right to refuse or discontinue passage to anyone when, in Cunard’s sole judgment, it would be considered a risk to the guest’s own safety, well-being and health or a risk to the safety, well-being, comfort and enjoyment of any other guest or crewmember. Deposits A 25% deposit is required within three days of reservation or sooner, as specified by Cunard for voyages less than 31 nights. For voyages 31 nights or longer, 15% is due at time of booking if booked by 221 days or more prior to sailing and an additional 15% at 220 days prior to sailing or 30% is due at time of booking if booked 220 days or fewer prior to sailing. Staterooms are subject to cancellation if required deposit amount is not received within the specified option period. Balance of payment Full payment for all cruises shorter than 31 nights must be received by Cunard no later than 90 days prior to sailing. All reservations are subject to cancellation if payments are not received by the due date and are guaranteed only when paid in full at 90 days prior to sailing. Final payment is due at 120 days prior to sailing on all voyages 31 nights or longer. Reservations made between 90 and 31 days prior to sailing require full payment within 24 hours of booking for voyages less than 31 nights. Reservations made between 120 and 31 days prior to sailing require full payment within 24 hours of booking for voyages 31 nights or longer.

Onboard Credit cannot be used for any of the following: cash back, casino/gambling charges, foreign exchange, any medical services/prescriptions, charities or for payment of International Visas.

For your convenience, we offer CunardCare, a package of benefits comprised of the CunardCare Cancellation Fee Waiver, the CunardCare Travel Insurance and the CunardCare Worldwide Emergency Assistance Programs designed for our most valued guests. Baggage and valuables Though we take reasonable care in the handling of baggage, Cunard’s responsibility for lost, damaged or misplaced baggage and other personal property is limited by the Passage Contract. Cunard Line is not responsible for camera equipment, laptops, cash or other similarly fragile and valuable items contained in checked or unchecked baggage. These items, as well as medications and prescriptions in their original packaging, should be carried on and off the ships by the guests themselves. Safedeposit boxes or in-room safes are available free of charge on board. For your safety, all guests and all baggage must pass a security checkpoint. Children travelling with an adult Children under 18 years of age must be accompanied by an adult. See page 119 for minimum ages and restrictions. Embarkation/disembarkation The ship generally will be available for embarkation four hours before the scheduled sailing time. Due to limited facilities, guests should not arrive earlier than the embarkation time noted on final documents. On disembarkation day, staterooms must be vacated at the time advised by the Hotel Manager. Once customs and immigration clearance has been completed, guests making their own air arrangements should allow three to four hours for transfer time to the airport. Cunard Line offers optional transfers and hospitality services to the port on embarkation day. Group transfers and service use motor coaches or minibuses; private transfers use luxury sedans for one to three guests or luxury club vans for four to eight guests. Where available, hospitality services provide you with transfers from your incoming flight to a deluxe hotel at which point your luggage is transported from the hotel directly to the ship. You are free to relax and enjoy the comforts of a Cunard hospitality room and use the hotel as a base from which to explore. Contact your Travel Consultant or call Cunard at (800) 728-6273 for more information. Guests with disabilities/special diets Guests with disabilities are welcome aboard Cunard vessels. Due to the configuration of our ships, however, wheelchair users and individuals with sight impairments may experience some difficulties in accessing certain areas. Where any individual would be unable to be safely and comfortably accommodated, we suggest that the guest be accompanied by a companion. Some ports of call require tenders to go ashore and may preclude guests using a wheelchair from leaving the vessel; this decision must be made by the ship’s Captain and is binding. Upon notification by a guest with a disability, Cunard Reservations will provide stateroom and bathroom doorway widths and other pertinent access limitations on board the vessels. Cunard is pleased to permit individuals to bring service animals on board. In order to make appropriate arrangements, notice that a guest will be travelling with an animal must be provided at the time of booking. Local laws or customs may prevent animals from disembarking at particular ports and countries. It is the guest’s obligation to obtain all documents/health certificates that may be required. Consult local customs authorities for information and requirements. Guests with conditions requiring ongoing medical assistance may be asked to have their physician provide a confidential certification form to ensure that they may travel safely. If guests have special dietary needs, Cunard must be advised at time of booking or, at the latest, six weeks before sailing. Every effort will be made to comply with such requests. Taxes, Fees and Port Expenses The term “Taxes, Fees and Port Expenses”, as used by us, may include any and all fees, charges, tolls and taxes imposed on us by governmental or quasi-governmental authorities, as well as third party fees and charges arising from a vessel’s presence in a harbour or port. Taxes, Fees and Port Expenses may include U.S. Customs fees, head taxes, Panama Canal tolls, dockage fees, wharfage fees, inspection fees, pilotage, air taxes, hotel or VAT taxes incurred as part of a land tour, immigration and naturalisation fees, and Internal Revenue Service fees. Port Expenses include fees paid to third parties for navigation, berthing, stevedoring, baggage handling/storage and security services. Taxes, Fees and Port Expenses may be assessed per passenger, per berth, per ton or per vessel. Assessments calculated on a per ton or per vessel basis will be spread over the number of passengers on the Ship. Taxes, Fees and Port Expenses are subject to change and Cunard reserves the right to collect any increases in effect at the time of sailing even if the fare has already been paid in full. Cunard ® Complete Air Programme, booking procedures, identification and refunds Guests purchasing flights under the Cunard® CompleteAir Programme may select either Flexible or Restricted fares that offer differing levels of flexibility. Guests booked on Restricted fares are required to pay for their flights in full at the time of booking. Guests booked on Flexible fares must pay for their flights in full no later than Final Payment due date, as indicated by Cunard Line reservations system. Guest agrees to contact airline(s) directly to reconfirm flights, to specify any special travel needs and to obtain seat assignments. Guest is responsible for verifying that the spelling of names shown on the Flight Information notice matches the identification presented at airport check-in (i.e. Passport). All airline tickets are the property of the carrier and must be returned to carrier. Guests purchasing flights under the Cunard® CompleteAir Programme may choose their flight and cabin at the time of booking. Guests will be able to choose from a selection of flights under either the Flexible or Restricted programme. Cunard ® Complete Air Late Arrival Protection Guests who book air travel through Cunard Cruises will be automatically enrolled in the Cunard Late Arrival Protection programme. If guests miss or will miss their original port of embarkation due to airline delay or an airline service disruption, such as flight cancellation or flight re-routes, Cunard will work with the airlines to find a reasonable alternative to provide flights to the next appropriate port at no additional air cost to the guest. Please note, this applies to all cruises except Transatlantic Crossings.

Cunard acts solely as the ticketing agent for all shoreside activities. Cunard shall have no obligation or liability of any kind to guests for acts or omissions in connection with or arising out of arrangements with independent contractors, including but not limited to airline carriers, ground/tour operators, hotels and onboard physicians since they are neither agents for nor employees of Cunard. International travel documents and health information It is the guest’s obligation to obtain and carry with him/her a valid passport, visas, parental authorisations if required as well as public health documents for all applicable ports of call and overland tour destinations. Your passport must be valid for a minimum of six months past the last day of your trip. Check with your Travel Consultant for advice on such requirements. For nonU.S. citizens or non-U.S. legal residents disembarking in a U.S. port, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security requires you to provide your address while in the United States after your cruise. Depending on the area of the world visited, vaccination/ immunisation requirements vary considerably and are subject to change at any time. We suggest that guests travelling outside of their country of residence consider being immunised against Hepatitis A, Typhoid, Diphtheria, Polio and Tetanus. An international certificate, approved by the World Health Organization, is the best medium for verification that inoculations and vaccinations have been satisfactorily performed and is accepted by health officials at all ports of call. We strongly recommend that all guests contact their personal physician, the Department of Public Health or the Centers for Disease Control to obtain expert medical immunisation recommendations for their intended itinerary and travel plans and to specifically address Malaria and Yellow Fever requirements in time to receive any necessary vaccinations/immunisations. Any Malaria prophylaxis medication recommended must be obtained prior to joining the vessel. Every effort has been made to ensure that the information presented is accurate at the time of printing.
