Cunard Queen Mary 2 Transatlantic crossing from £1,499

Seven nights crossing the Atlantic on an actual ocean liner—not a floating resort with water slides. Cunard's Queen Mary 2 still does formal dinners and ballroom dancing the old-fashioned way, and you're looking at £1,499 per person to experience it.

The deal

Southampton to New York, 7 nights aboard Queen Mary 2. Full board included. Departures April through November. Price from £1,499 per person.

Why we like it

You're paying for the voyage itself, not the destination. QM2 is the last true transatlantic liner in service—no gimmicks, no climbing walls, no all-you-can-eat buffets designed for Instagram. Formal dress codes, proper restaurants, a planetarium, and the simple luxury of spending a week at sea without flying.

At £1,499pp for a week's full board, the price is genuinely reasonable for a Cunard experience. You're not sharing with 4,000 other passengers either.

Catch: this isn't a party ship. If you want nightclubs and Caribbean stops, look elsewhere. Formal nights are compulsory (tuxedo or equivalent), and the crowd skews older. April-November departures mean you'll want to book soon for peak months.

How to book

Head directly to Cunard and search Queen Mary 2 transatlantic crossings. You'll need to select your cabin grade and specific departure date. Prices vary by season and cabin location, so shop around before committing.
