The maiden sailing for Cunard’s new ocean liner Queen Elizabeth, which was placed on worldwide sale this week, sold out in a record 29 minutes – easily making this the fastest selling voyage in the line’s 170-year history.It sold out quicker than QE2’s final voyage, when it set a previous sell-out record of 36 minutes in June 2007.
Queen Elizabeth’s maiden 2010 season will consist of six voyages, calling on 32 distinct ports in 18 countries. Her Maiden Voyage, now sold out, will depart from Cunard’s homeport of Southampton on October 12, 2010, en route to the Atlantic Isles.
The ship will then embark on five celebratory inaugural voyages, for which space is still available but selling fast.
