The prestigious Queen Mary 2 cruise liner will arrive in Sydney Harbour at 5.45 am on Tuesday 20 February. This will be a grand occasion for Sydney as it is not often that a cruise liner of this stature visits this famous harbour.
According to Cunard President Carol Marlow The Queen Mary 2 is the biggest moving object ever to visit Australia. This ship is too tall to sail under the Sydney Harbour Bridge and it is too long to berth at Circular Quay which is the normal place to berth a cruise ship. The ship is 1,132 feet or 345 metre in length. Queen Mary 2 can take on a maximum 3056 guests. The crew numbers 1253.
