(PRESS RELEASE)_VALENCIA, Calif., October 8, 2019 – Luxury cruise line Cunard has announced three additional opportunities for guests to sail roundtrip from Victoria, BC, Canada on some of the company’s 2020 Alaska itineraries.

Victoria is one of Canada’s top-rated destinations and this will give passengers extra time in port to explore the city pre- and post-cruise.” Cunard is doubling its Alaska program in 2020, spending a full season in the region from June through September with ten voyages ranging from nine to twelve nights. In addition to scenic cruising through the Inside Passage, Queen Elizabeth will visit the stunning Glacier Bay National Park, as well as spend full days in several ports to discover the history and culture of the area. ALASKA 30-DAY CRUISE SALE Travel Advisors will receive bonus commission plus extra onboard credit of up to $300 for clients when they book a Victoria voyage during the month of October.
