Cunard confirms four-fam schedule for 2024

The roundtrip fam trips sail from Southampton, with options from August to September inviting more agents than ever before on board.

Complemented by a ship visit programme (with nine dates confirmed), Queen Anne's operational test hosting 400 agents, and 185 agents heading aboard the ship at May's CLIA Conference, the four fam trips comprise the final piece of Cunard's record-breaking agent programme.

All four sailings depart roundtrip from Southampton for a four-night journey, with 20 agents invited aboard each to stay in Balcony staterooms or Princess Grill suites, enjoying drinks receptions, immersive training, a speciality dining experience and off-ship excursions.

Queen Anne will sail to Rotterdam on August 28th, Queen Mary 2 to Zeebrugge on September 11th and Hamburg on October 13th, and Queen Victoria to Amsterdam on November 15th.

Interest can be registered via the Shine Rewards Club platform.

Tom Mahoney, the cruise line's director of UK sales, said the trips guarantee "invaluable insights into the incredible Cunard experience and what makes us truly unique," adding that the trade team "want[s] to demonstrate an unprecedented commitment to our trade partners."

Last year Tom, in an exclusive interview with Travel Bulletin, said the team is "really keen to work with all kinds of agents... we want to make sure we are able to get out there and talk to as many people selling cruises and selling holidays as we possibly can."
