Slightly larger in gross tonnage than QUEEN VICTORIA, she qualifies as the second largest Cunarder ever built, the third to carry the name Queen Elizabeth and the third QUEEN in the present fleet. The October program is under the direction of our Program Chairman Theodore W. Scull, who will present a first-hand look at the new ship, drawing on a personal inspection in Southampton and on input by other World Ship Society members based in England who will photograph the ship and her initial October sailings to and from her homeport. Join us as we celebrate Cunard Line’s expanding presence on the high seas and continuing tradition dating back 170 years.

HM Queen Elizabeth II smashes a jeroboam of Veuve Cliquot against the hull of the first express ocean liner built since 1969. The story of QUEEN MARY 2 begins. Ten years ago, the QM2 was considered a ship of superlatives in every way. She beat every other liner and cruise ship in every dimension; length (1,132 feet, beating FRANCE by 97 feet), tonnage (148,528 GRT, 8,958 GRT more than the Voyager-class ships of Royal Caribbean), and cost ($780 million in 2003, which equals $983 million today). She was considered the new standard of seagoing luxury, and a major ad campaign leading up to her launch called "Can you wait?" showed office workers in evening gowns and mothers serving breakfast in cocktail dresses. QM2 captivated the world in a way that no ship had in decades. Today, her size has been surpassed by several ships, but since the retirement of QUEEN ELIZABETH 2, she remains the only express ocean liner in service.
