Cunard will host astronaut Tim Peake on an Alaska voyage next summer as part of its Insights Programme. Peake, who spent six months
on board the International Space Station between December 2015 and June 2016, will be a special guest on a 10-night Alaska voyage departing from Seattle on July 20 on Queen Elizabeth. During the sailing, Peake will
share stories in the Royal Court Theatre in an exclusive talk and Q&A session about his time in space and his career with the Army Air Corps. The cruise will call at
Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, Wrangell and Victoria, Canada. Fares lead in at £1,459 per
person based on two sharing a Britannia Balcony Stateroom. Cunard president Katie
McAlister said: “Having Tim Peake join us on board Queen Elizabeth is
20 14 AUGUST 2025 Alaska and space
are both places of stunning natural beauty and discovery
something truly special. He’s lived the kind of adventure most of us can only imagine, and to hear his stories – from space missions to life on the International Space Station – in the setting of Alaska’s wild beauty will be unforgettable. “We’re absolutely delighted to
be able to offer our guests such a rare and inspiring opportunity.” Peake added: “Alaska and space
might seem worlds apart, but both are places of stunning natural beauty, perspective and discovery. “I’m incredibly excited to share
with Cunard guests what it’s really like to live and work in space, and to meet curious minds from around the world in one of the most
breathtaking destinations on Earth.”
