The Victoria & new Queen Elizebeth are "Vista" class cruisers. It's sad to say, that without Carnival, Cunard would probably have folded by now. Carnival is kind of like a General Motors...Carnival/Chevrolet, Holland America/Buick, Princess/Pontiac, Cunard/Cadillac. More luxurious,but still sharing many things with the other divisions. I've heard complaints about the Princess management team, but being in the "Grills" as of late, I have no complaints. It's really been quite luxurious.

Whoa! Now that is pathetic!

Carnival owns P&O...

[MykeSoBe]

Hmm, then it seems P&O and Carnival have reached some partnerships then. But like I said in my comment below, it is sad that 200 years of maritime prowess have given in to both of them! Not Carnival nor P&O have as distinctly renown a reputation as Cunard!

[homeric9]

I am aware of the brands that Carnival owns. In Cunard's case, while owned by Carnival cruise Lines, its ships are designed by P&O/Princess Lead Designer Therese Anderson. Cunard employs no designers of its own. And since the less than spectacular debut of QM2 under Cunard's sole stewardship Carnival Cruise Lines appointed Princess cruises to run and manage the operations of Cunard. Cunard is simply a brand that runs ships designed and managed by its own competition.

[MykeSoBe]

Actually Cunard is owned by Carnival Plc! Anybody will tell you that.. Though I do think it is sad that Cunard is not its own line anymore, it is sad, 200 years of maritime reliability and grandeur, usurped by that Carnival Plc which manufactures ships by the thousands instead of like Cunard which takes quality first instead of quantity like its aggressive owner!

[homeric9]

What is so sad is when one looks beyond the English accented hype. Cunard does not run or manage itself, build nor design its own ships. Cunard is managed and directed by P&O/Princess Cruises. Exchanges crew, staff, reservations and land operational staff. Therese Anderson, Lead Designer for P&O/Princess designed the QV and QE. Using the same elements used in Princess ships..many people have said the QV looks "very Princess". A position can be made then Princess Cruises is the ocean liner brand!
