RMS Sylvania was an ocean liner built in 1957 by John Brown & Company in Glasgow, Scotland, for Cunard. She was Cunard's last vessel built specifically for transatlantic crossings. Later heavily rebuilt as a cruise ship, she sailed as SS Fairwind, SS Sitmar Fairwind, SS Dawn Princess and SS Albatros. Renamed SS Genoa for her final voyage, she was scrapped in 2004.
