  • Welcome to the World of Cunard, where for over 170 years, our iconic liners have been defining sophisticated ocean travel. We invite you to watch this video and see for yourself why Cunard's present royal court - Queen Mary 2, Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth, are unlike any other ships, offering a superior, true ocean liner experience. We do hope you will join us soon for an adventure on The Most Famous Ocean Liners in the World.

    The White Star service is a relic of the White Star Line, the direct competitor of the Cunard Line in the years 1900 until 1927 when the two companies merged.

    Technically speaking, Cunard merged with the Oceanic Steam Navigation Company (the proper name of the White Star Line), and was known for many years as the Cunard White Star Line.
    Today, now a subsidiary of American cruise interests, the company, known once again as just Cunard, maintains the White Star heritage with the White Star Service brand, which appropriately displays the old White Star pennant as the logo on all service oriented uniforms.

      In the end though, sort of beside the point as I don't really have any issue with Cunard, how they do their business, nor how they choose to honor their heritage. I'm an ocean liner buff, not a social justice fanatic. You seem to have an issue, though, otherwise why did you ask me about it and then get all offended when I gave you an answer?

    RMS Titanic technically has no real owner as such, since she in in international waters, although the current salvor-in-possession of the wreck, RMS Titanic Inc., has the exclusive right to remove artifacts from the site according to international salvage laws.
    Cunard has no vested interest in her at the present time, and never has owned her, although at one time the RMS Olympic, Titanic's sister, was on the fleet roster along with many other ex White Star ships

    The ships are nice. But beware lots of people have turned up missing at sea on cruise lines of late. The ships are registered in Bahamas so their police force has to investigate the crime.

    Seriously ... this video is clearly trying to appeal to an older crowd - the music, the tone, the wording - might as well call it "Senior Citizen City" .... Cunard should try to be more appealing to a wider set of passengers ... I have always loved ocean liners but, I'd be scared to sail on a Cunard Vessel in fear of being BORED to death! I am not asking for a tacky Carnival cruise (Though Carnival DOES own Cunard) but .. make these ships more appealing to a younger set.
