As thousands
of shivering Cunard guests were sent off to see windmills and

were pleasantly surprised by her warm, intimate atmosphere and
distinct touch of class. |

Netherlands |

Closely
following the design of Holland America's Vista-class ships
and with interiors designed in-house by Princess Cruises,
Cunard's new Queen has not escaped Carnival Corporation's
cookie cutter. But by using more classy and timeless
materials, the design team have come up with a distinct
"Cunard style".
