“Walking through the halls of the QE2 is like stepping into a storybook,” shares Ferghal Purcell, General Manager of Queen Elizabeth 2. “Its legacy is unparalleled, covering over 6.5 million nautical miles and carrying some of the world’s most distinguished passengers. Every cabin, every suite, every corner resonates with tales of grand voyages and unforgettable moments. We’ve preserved her original features, offering guests a truly unique experience that connects the past with the present.”
