Sailing on the seas at Christmas doesn’t mean having to say goodbye to turkey dinners with all the trimmings.

And you won’t have to miss out on the December shows either. You can settle down for a crew pantomine, grotto, nativity, live broadcast of the Queen’s speech, midnight mass and festive films!

Cunard

Expect Christmas wreaths, trees, nutcrackers, fairy lights, gingerbread cottages: the lot!

You’ll be immersed in a winter wonderland with “snowing events” where you’ll find special festive activities under a a light simulated snow fall.
