Working at Carnival UK

What we do

Carnival UK is the operating company for P&O Cruises & Cunard. We provide unforgettable holiday experiences and operate a winning culture to achieve stand-out success.


Our Cunard ships have been defining sophisticated ocean travel for over 180 years. Our ships have always been The Most Famous Ocean Liners in the World. We continue our legacy of luxury ocean travel with our flagship Queen Mary 2, Queen Victoria, and Queen Elizabeth, with Queen Mary 2 providing the only regularly scheduled transatlantic service between Southampton and New York. In 2024 our fourth Queen, Queen Anne, will join our Cunard fleet.


P&O Cruises has six ships, including our flagship Iona which joined our fleet in August 2021. Iona, along with Arvia which joins us in December 2022, will be the largest in the UK market, meaning we can offer more experiences tailored to British tastes - combining genuine service, a sense of occasion and attention to detail, ensuring passengers have the holiday of a lifetime, every time.
