BRITAIN´S latest luxury liner, the Queen Victoria, will be paying her first visit to the Port of Palma next month confirming the island´s position as one of the principal cruise liner ports in the Mediterranean.
The Queen Victoria will be docking in Palma for the first time on May 9. Smaller than her sister ship, the Queen Mary 2, she was designed and built to replace the Queen Elizabeth 2 which has now been retired from the Cunard fleet.
Queen Victoria is a worthy successor to the world famous QE2 and is slightly bigger. Weighing in at 90'000 gross tons she has a total of 1'000 state rooms and can carry up to 2'000 guests. She is almost 300 metres long. Built in Italy she joined the Cunard fleet in December 2007 and is based in Southampton. This will be the first of a number of visits the Queen Victoria will be paying to the port of Palma this summer.
