CUNARD’S flagship liner Queen Mary 2 had a rare meeting with sister ship Queen Elizabeth on 26 Jul in Halifax, Canada, birthplace of the company’s founder Samuel Cunard.
The rendezvous was arranged in celebration of Zita Cobb and Sandra Greer, this year’s recipients of the Samuel Cunard Prize for Vision, Courage and Creativity and The Innovative Spirit Award, respectively.
From Halifax, QM2 sailed to NY and England, with special guest on board, Cunard historian John Langley, Director and Chair of the Cunard Steamship Society.
Queen Elizabeth is currently partaking a 49-night Vancouver to Southampton journey.
Guests on board Queen Mary 2’s transatlantic crossing will have the opportunity to see select pieces from the collection and attend talks given by Langley.
