Creator's Key Takeaways

queen mary 2 was christened and became cunard's flagship in 2004 at which point she was the largest and most luxurious passenger ship the world had ever seen

we were really looking forward to our mini cruise to sherborg on qm2 not only because she is a stunning ship

unfortunately our experience did not live up to our expectations for several reasons

service was no better than what we received on princess marella and piano this year
