A cruise company has suspended all its sailings until next year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Luxury cruise line Cunard has extended the pause of sailings for its three ships until March to May 2021.
Initially the company cancelled sailings until November 2020.
But now sailings are suspended until March 25 for the Queen Elizabeth, until April 18 for the Queen Mary 2 and until May 16 for the Queen Victoria.
It said the decision to extended the suspension is due to "the complexity of operating world voyages" and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office continuing to advise against cruise travel due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Cunard president Simon Palethorpe said: "We are so sorry to all those guests who were due to sail on any of the cancelled voyages and for the disappointment this news will cause.
"After very careful consideration and reviewing the latest guidance, we simply do not feel it would be sensible to start sailing again with our current schedule so we have reviewed future itineraries."
Those affected by the cancellations will automatically receive credit for a future sailing worth 125 percent of the cost of their original trip.
Customers can also request a cash refund.
