Cunard sees
strongest start to Wave in the last decade
24 January 2023 [Southampton, UK] Cunard has reported that in
the first week of January it has booked more guests than any
equivalent period in the last decade.
The luxury brand has seen strong booking momentum across 2023
and 2024 sailings, with summer itineraries and Queen Anne’s maiden
season proving to be particularly popular with guests.
Carnival UK president, Sture Myrmell said, "Following two of our
strongest booking periods in 2022, we have seen unparalleled
bookings during the start of Wave.”
“We’ve increased our marketing investment significantly,
including the use of TV advertising for the first time as we reach
and appeal to new audiences.”
“It’s clear that guests are looking forward to stepping back on
board both in the UK and across all our global markets.”
