The Fleets

Ward Line (New York & Cuba Mail Steamship Company)

(this only includes Ward Line ships which made transatlantic crossings.)

The high demand for freight and passenger services between Spain, Cuba and the USA after the Great War caused the Ward Line to extend some sailings from New York and Havana to Spanish ports. This continued from January,1920, to October, 1921, when the transatlantic service ceased.

Many thanks to Ted Finch for his assistance in collecting this data. The following list was extracted from various sources. This is not an all inclusive list but should only be used as a guide. If you would like to know more about a vessel, visit the Ship Descriptions (on-site) ot the Immigrant Ship web site.
