Ocean Liner
Once ruling the seas, the only true ocean liner sailing anywhere in the world today is Cunard’s Queen Mary 2.
The luxurious liner, christened by HRH Queen Elizabeth II, debuted to much fanfare when she set sail in 2004, and has been going strong ever since. She is the only liner currently sailing regularly scheduled transatlantic cruises – which are one of the most relaxing cruise experiences you may ever have.
