Cunard Line 2008 World Cruise Brochure Now Available

VALENCIA, CA - August 31, 2007 - Continuing a grand Cunard tradition started nearly 85 years ago, the line will embark on two historic World Cruises in 2008: Sailing roundtrip from New York, Queen Victoria will embark on her inaugural world cruise, a 105-day Pathway to the Explorers voyage that is destined to spark worldwide celebration as nearly every port will be a maiden call, and Queen Elizabeth 2 will embark on her 26th world cruise, a 90-day South America, Pacific & Far East Odyssey.

Affording unparalleled opportunities to see the world from the deck of two of the world’s most famous ocean liners, these dual journeys are richly detailed in Cunard’s new 75-page 2008 World Cruise brochure.

In addition to full World Cruises, the ships offer a wide range of Liner and Segment Voyages. Now available for booking, these shorter voyages are ideal for travellers who wish to explore a specific part of the world or those whose busy schedules rule out an around-the-world journey.
