It will never float, but this unique model has been giving visitors at the Cruise Miami convention this week a sneak preview of the interiors of Cunard’s new ship, Queen Elizabeth.
So far, we’ve seen only artists’ impressions, architectural drawings, and photographs of construction work at the Marghera shipyard near Trieste in Italy.
But here’s a chance to see the real thing, albeit in miniature, accurate to the last detail – apart from the fact that there are no passengers or crew to be seen. I wonder what Cunard president and managing director Peter Shanks (right) is saying to Guiseppe Bono, CEO of shipbuilder Fincantieri.
The ship is scheduled to embark on her maiden voyage from Southampton on October 12.
