MV Cunard Ambassador was a cruise ship intended for the use of a company by the name of Overseas National Airways which was a charter airline. Along with this ship Overseas National Airways planned seven other ships as well. At the same time the well known Cunard Line saw the cruise market as a positive investment in the early 1960s. How they were planning for this however was very difficult.
