Your privacy is important to us. We will never ask for any payment information or other sensitive data during our live chat. To provide you with the best possible support, we will ask for your name and email address. Please be assured that this information is strictly for internal use and will not be used for marketing purposes.

At Cunard, we strive to ensure that every interaction whether before, during, or after you sail lives up to our high standards.

At times, things may not go according to plan, and it is important that such matters are brought to our attention as soon as they happen, or as soon as reasonably possible after. This is to enable us to seek an early resolution, so that there is a minimal impact on your overall experience.

Our fleet or shore-based customer service colleagues should always be the first point of contact for any issues that arise. Anything that has not initially been reviewed by these teams will be referred to our Guest Relations team to investigate and seek a resolution.

Should you experience any problems during your voyage, it is important these are raised while you are on board. Our complaint handling practices are aligned across our ship and shore teams, and we work collaboratively to resolve issues on first contact. By speaking to the team on board, they will have the opportunity to investigate and rectify the matter as soon as possible, leaving you to relax and enjoy what remains of your holiday.

If we are unable to fully resolve the matter while you are on board, or if you would like to discuss any other aspect relating to service, then you can contact our shore-based team who will investigate further. We ask that you please contact us within 28 days of arriving home. For any matters not relating to an on board experience, please contact us as soon as possible after the problem first arises. This is to ensure we can obtain the right information and give you the best response possible. Please note, we may be unable to investigate any complaints made after 28 days, which may affect any right you have to compensation.

We work to ABTA’s Code of Conduct and always strive to resolve cases within 28 days. This can, at times, take longer depending on the matter at hand, the level of investigation required, or during some of our busier periods. Having said this, please rest assured that we’ll always aim to resolve the matter as soon as possible.

If we exhaust our complaints process and have been unable to reach a suitable resolution, we will inform you of the next steps to pursue the matter externally. As we are a member of ABTA, you will have access to their independent dispute resolution process, which is approved by the Chartered Trading Standards. All information can be found on the ABTA website.

Should you need to raise a complaint with us, you can do so by completing the form on this webpage, and selecting ‘Voyage feedback’ from the drop-down menu. A member of our team will then be in touch, within the time frame stipulated above, to assist you.
