Cunard Queen Elizabeth 2010

[WeAreCunard]

@rongiant1093 Yes, she is bigger than QE2. Queen Elizabeth is 90,900 GRT (QE2 was 70,327 GRT)

[rongiant1093]

Is she bigger then Qe2?

[TheSorub]

Were you make money is running a cruise liner, not building them, although i agree it,s a shame uk yards are mostly gone

[edj66]

Such a shame the British have forgone the ability to build ships like this. We once ruled the waves, now we just borrow money to buy them.

[odofad]

Can't believe how they cheaped out on this ship, compared to the QM2. This is nothing more then a cruise ship dressed as a "liner"

[a7medoom]

Is that ship bigger than the titanic?

[mathiasavp]

@a7medoom yes

[Giratina386]

..... Why does this ship bear the same exact name as the 1967 Queen Elizabeth II?

[type42sheff]

Thought germans built it

[GrandeurFrancaise]

MADE IN ITALY

[JohnRhysMusician]

As an American of Colonial British descent and a royalist, I do find it odd that the Queen continues to remain committed to christening these Cunard vessels that carry American flags and are owned by an American company. It is polite of her, but in her heart doesn't she know that these vessels are not of the Kingdom itself?

[airplanegod]

@JohnRhysMusician Cunard is now owned by Carnival, correct?

[JohnRhysMusician]

@airplanegod Yes.

[dkpirie]

@airplanegod Yes, sadly they have bought up Cunard and P & O (who also owned Princess Cruises). All these big fat American companies swallow up our top notch British companies and soon there will be nothing left. Kraft bought Cadburys, from Europe Santander of Spain bought Abbey National, Bradford and Bingley and 1 other bank I forget the name of. Ferovial from Spain bought up all BAA airports. EDF from France bought up our largest enegry supplier. BMW & VW bought Rolls Royce and Bentley. SAD

@dkpirie THE QUEEN ELIZABETH WAS BUILT IN ITALY

SO IT'S SO BEATIFUL

[dkpirie]

@GrandeurFrancaise . Yes I know the Queen Elizabeth was build in Italy, just like her sister ship before her (Queen Victoria), but what has that got to do with what I was saying?????

[SEAMANfromNORTH]

@airplanegod Yes

[cholliday666]

@JohnRhysMusician They fly British flags and are on the British shipping register (If you've seen clips of them flying the American flag its probably because they are in American waters, which is the norm). Carnival is a British company also, formed by the merger with P & O and dual listed on the stock exchanges of both countries.

[NaughtyBwoi]

i want to go, but i dont want to be surrounded by fucking asshole pensioners

[cholliday666]

@NaughtyBwoi Pick a shorter voyage, a week or less. They tend to have younger people on board.

[NaughtyBwoi]

@cholliday666 will i get laid? - thanks for the tip....

[SCE2AUX]

"I name this ship....me(?)"

[jonniebois]

I worked on the QE2 before. And she was just amazing. Wish I was still there!

[SuperTitanicfreak]

Queen Elizabeth will no doubt live up to her namesakes. long live the Queens! long live Queen Elizabeth!

[jeffhusky92]

Aww, ain't she awesome?

[cunardia123]

Want to go! Arghh!

[jackscholesbramall]

I too am saving up like mad i would like to do the trans atlantic crossing on qm2 then this one

[CygnusCo]

I love this ship, like the other ships in Cunard History

[scaper3]

Well, I'm going to start saving as I'd love to try this ship for my 30th in a few years! QM2 was fantastic, so high hopes will be carried over. Just would have liked a more original exterior, Cunard...!
