Does anyone know what will actualy be happening to QE2 after Dec 2004. I have heard a lot of rumours.

Will she keep cruising?
Will she get sold?
Will she make a final cruise to India?

I plan to book the Dec04 transat to ensue a place, especialy when this may be her last visit to the USA because of new SOLAS regulations to which I believe she does not fully comply.

Last I'd heard, they were planiing on keeping her mainly in the European market (Baltics, summers and Med winters), with a 'Round-the-world trip once a year for the foreseeable future.

The QE2 will be de-commissioned within the coming decade. She will then return to Glasgow where she will become a maritime museum and hotel.
