Few passenger ships command attention quite like RMS Queen Mary 2. Whenever she appears on the horizon, cameras come out, conversations begin, and even those with only a passing interest in ships stop to watch. There is simply something special about witnessing the arrival of the world's last true ocean liner. Join me as we follow this magnificent vessel on her arrival to Trondheim, Norway, in November 2025, capturing her from the air and from the shoreline as she makes her stately approach to Norway's historic coronation city. As a ship's captain myself, I have always believed that some ships are more than steel and machinery. They carry history, tradition, and a legacy that continues to inspire generations of seafarers. Queen Mary 2 is undoubtedly one of those ships. Without revealing too much, this video explores why she continues to fascinate maritime enthusiasts around the world, why an ocean liner is fundamentally different from a cruise ship, and why every visit from this remarkable vessel still feels like a special occasion.
