President Katie McAlister said: "Sharing unforgettable
moments with friends and family back at home is an important part of any
holiday. Whether it's uploading a picture of a sunset as you sail away from a
newly discovered destination or catching up with the news, live events, or
content from home, Starlink will make it even easier for our guests and
colleagues to stay connected."
Starlink vice
president of commercial sales Jonathan Hofeller said: "High-speed
internet is critical to our modern lifestyle both at home and when travelling.
We're excited that Cunard guests and crew will benefit from an improved Wi-Fi
service on board wherever they are in the world."
