The world's only ocean liner
Queen Mary 2 is one of a kind. Engineering marvel, work of art, and luxurious home from home: she's all of these and more. Stronger, smoother and swifter than a cruise ship, she was designed with a single purpose: to cross the Atlantic in unparalleled comfort and style. To step on board is to journey into another world, where everything revolves around you.
