Cunard regrettably cancel two sailings on the Queen Victoria

Cunard have recently announced that they are going to have to cancel two of their future sailings on the Queen Victoria.

The cruises will be a Canaries cruise which was scheduled to set sail on the 3rd January 2015 and the other a five night cruise on the 15th January 2015.

The Victoria had a scheduled dry dock for works to be taken out in December 2015 but unfortunately these works have had to be brought forward as a bearing needs to be replaced on on a propulsion unit before she sets sail on her 2015 world voyage.

Cunard have told passengers already booked on these voyages that they can switch to an alternative sailing within 2 years and receive £100 per person future cruise credit or they can cancel with a full refund.

I am quite disappointed to hear about this as I have some passengers already booked on these cruises although I understand it is just an unfortunate set of circumstances.  If essential maintenance has to be carried out for the ship to be able to sail properly then I shouldn’t imagine Cunard have a lot of choice in the matter.

While this is sad news I feel that this is a valid reason to have to do this and unfortunately just can’t be helped.

I hope this doesn’t cause too much inconvenience to any passengers that have already chosen to book on these voyages.
