Watch as Gulf News's own Forrest Cassidy re-embarks QE2 after 15 years. A Dubai veteran of 39-years, he has been on 15 trips on the QE2 from 1979 to 2004. Cassidy returned to the ship-hotel docked at Port Rashid for the first time in 15 years to see how much had changed since he last embarked on the ship. Why, he even found his old room!
About the ship
Bomb scares, war, recessions and a 29-metre wave, the Dubai-docked Queen Elizabeth 2 (QE2) has been through it all since her maiden voyage 50-years ago on May 2, 1969 from Southampton to New York. Crossing the Atlantic in four days, 16 hours and 35 minutes during that first trip made her the fastest passenger ship in service for 39 years from her launch until 2008, when she started her new life in Port Rashid as a floating hotel.
