QE2 BIDS FAREWELL On 16OCT08, Cunard's Queen Elizabeth 2 (QE2) will bid farewell to America during a celebratory call befitting of the company's longest-serving ocean liner. The historic occasion will mark the iconic ship's 706th and final call to New York. Escorted by FDNY fireboats and a flotilla of pleasure craft, the QE2 will depart the Westside Terminal at 5 p.m. to meet sister ship, Queen Mary 2, for a Cunard Royal Rendezvous at the Statue of Liberty as both renowned ocean liners embark on a tandem voyage to Southampton, England, marking QE2's 806th and final transatlantic crossing. Recognized as the most famous ship in the world and for 35 years, flagship of the Cunard fleet, QE2 was named by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in 1967. During nearly four decades at sea, the vessel has logged 5.9 million nautical miles (equivalent to travelling to the moon and back 13 times) and carried more than 2.5 million passengers. QE2 completes service to Cunard in November after sailing a final voyage to Dubai where she will be refurbished and become a luxury hotel, entertainment destination and maritime museum. www.cunard.com Having a Wedding? avin ving dding? ng Welcome Wagon can help!
