Transatlantic cruises from Southampton are the stylish, leisurely way to travel between the UK and America. Turn your holiday into a romantic high seas adventure aboard a ship such as Cunard’s Queen Mary 2.
A transatlantic crossing is usually six to eight days long for a one-way trip, but there are some longer routes as well. Spring and fall are the ideal times to book this type of cruise because many cruise lines use this time of year to move their ships between sailing regions.
Many transatlantic cruises from Southampton sail to New York and ports in Florida. But there is more to these cruises than a trip straight to some American port. They include interesting itineraries and ports of call in some beautiful places before you set out into the Atlantic.

If sailing from Southampton to Miami, you may dock in Ponta Delgada in the Azores before heading west to America.
