QUEEN
MARY 2
The Greatest Ocean Liner of our Time
"We are what we repeatedly do.
Excellence then, is not an act but a habit"
Aristotle
In January 2004, Queen Mary 2 will make her debut as
a Queen among Queens, a worthy successor to such great
transatlantic liners as Queen Mary, Queen Elizabeth
and today's Queen Elizabeth 2.
|
Stylish, grand, and representing the pinnacle
of maritime achievement, she is destined to become
an icon of our time.
|
|
|
QM2 is a perfect marriage of form and function, a floating
palace built for sailing rapidly between points on the
globe. Unfettered Luxury for my
Travel Darlings! QM2 boasts extravagant amenities
such as a planetarium, the Canyon Ranch SpaClub and
luxurious suites with private elevator access. (ohh,
beam me up)
|
|
|
At a cost of nearly $800 million, the most expensive
passenger ship in the world comes with an unprecedented
cache of luxuries and innovations.
|
Three-quarters of her staterooms have balconies. Five
two-story duplex apartments offer every amenity from
expansive living and dining areas to three baths and
even private exercise equipment.
|
And exciting restaurants like Todd English and
Cunard's renowned Grills create the premier dining
experience at sea. (yum,
yum)
|
|
|
|
|
|
The QM2 is quite possibly the Most Magnificent
Resort on the Planet
|
|
|
A per passenger space ratio of 57.25 makes her one
of the roomiest ships anywhere. But even that can't
prepare you - my Travel Darlings
- for the endless possibilities which occupy all this
space - 14 decks of sports facilities, pools, shops,
bars and lounges, a largesse which allows you the freedom
to experience your own preferences and passions.

|
T.G. says - oh don't
beam me up Scotty, let me stay here please!
|
Shop for duty-free designer items from evening gowns
to sportswear in the Mayfair Shops. Take a walk down
history lane at the Maritime Quest exhibit. Sip mellow
Bordeaux in Sir Samuel's or listen to jazz in the Commodore
Club. Try something novel. Learn something new. More
than just a technological showpiece, QM2 is also at
the forefront of cultural trends. At Cunard ConneXions,
QM2's inspiring enrichment and educational programme,
you can learn about everything from wine appreciation
and cooking to foreign languages, painting, digital
photography and computer skills. (tap,
tappity, tap, tap)
|
It is all of these superlatives that separate
her from ordinary ships. Indeed, towering more
than 200 feet above the waterline, Queen Mary
2 is taking cruising to breathtaking new heights.
