A special ceremony at Fincantieri‘s Marghera shipyard near Venice was held this week to mark the float out of Cunard‘s newest Queen, ocean liner Queen Victoria. The 90,000-ton vessel will offer the very best of Cunard’s heritage and traditions, along with all modern day luxuries, but will also feature some exciting innovations. These will include the first traditional West End-style private viewing boxes at sea in the Royal Court Theatre; the first floating Cunardia museum display, housing Cunard artifacts and memorabilia and the first two-story, ‘spiral staircased’ library at sea.
