ALL ABOARD
The QUEEN has officially named Cunard’s 92,000-tonne Queen Elizabeth liner, the cruise company’s third new ship in six years. The monarch named the vessel in a quayside ceremony at Southampton. Cunard ordered the ship to meet growing demand for cruise holidays, with 1.5m Britons booking last year. The ceremony came 72 years after the Queen watched her mother launch the first Queen Elizabeth.
