Queen Elizabeth archive: Southampton return route · Q618
Unverified archive record · not a current sailing offer
This preserved Queen Elizabeth record describes the Southampton return route. Its old schedule is useful for exploring recorded port calls and time at sea, but the displayed date labels have not been verified as an actual departure. Compare published future sailings in the current calendars.
The reference route includes Mallorca (Palma), Spain; Messina Strait, Italy; Athens (Piraeus), Greece; Ephesus (Kusadasi), Turkey; Mykonos, Greece; Olympia (Katakolon), Greece; Messina, Italy. Read the daily itinerary for the order of calls and time at sea; overnight descriptions and port timings need confirmation for your chosen departure.
Southampton is a useful starting point for planning a journey through southern England. Allow time to reach the terminal and confirm the embarkation instructions for your selected sailing.
European port calls can involve transfers between the cruise terminal and the historic centre. Compare travel time with the published port schedule before choosing an independent visit.
A considered choice
Planning a luxury Cunard voyage
For a longer journey or a segment of a luxury world cruise, consider how many days you want at sea and which destinations matter most. Compare the full travel plan, including flights, transfers and hotel nights, as well as the cruise itself.
Ask us to compare Britannia accommodation with Princess Grill or Queens Grill options for your selected sailing. Confirm the cabin layout, dining arrangements and current inclusions before deciding; reference photographs may show an earlier configuration.
How to read this route record
Recorded calls include Southampton, United Kingdom; Mallorca (Palma), Spain; Messina Strait, Italy; Athens (Piraeus), Greece; Ephesus (Kusadasi), Turkey; Mykonos, Greece. Compare the number and order of port calls with the time spent at sea. A longer route can mean different transfer needs and more countries to check before travelling.
Collection 2016 is an archive grouping retained from the existing address, not a verified departure year. Keep the original voyage reference when asking about an older record; a reused voyage code alone cannot identify a current sailing.
