Cunard, on behalf of its employees worldwide, is deeply saddened at the news of the death of Her Majesty The Queen.

Her Majesty’s association with Cunard dates back to 1938 when she accompanied her mother to the launch of Queen Elizabeth. Since then The Queen launched Caronia in 1947 and QE2 in 1967, and named Queen Mary 2 in 2004 and Queen Elizabeth in 2010. Her Majesty also attended many events on board our ships over the years, including our 150th Anniversary celebrations in 1990. For all of this and much more, Cunard will be forever grateful to The Queen.

Cunard joins the UK and nations around the world in expressing our deep sympathy at the death of Her Majesty, and we extend sincere condolences to The Royal Family.

God save the King.
