Cunard announces cancellation of Australian summer

Cunard has announced the cancellation of all upcoming Australian and New Zealand summer voyages for 2021/22.

“Sadly, the impact of the pandemic forced the cruise industry to go into an extended pause in operation,” said Cunard President Simon Palethorpe.

“As local restrictions have lifted, the cruise industry has successfully resumed operating in a number of countries. However, due to the ongoing complexities of navigating international sailing, this has meant that further changes have been necessary to scheduled itineraries.

“The decision to cancel any voyage is not taken lightly as we are fully aware of the disappointment this will cause guests and the impact on the local economy.”
