This collection preserves original paperwork and memorabilia from our honeymoon crossing aboard Queen Elizabeth 2 (Cunard), sailing from Southampton to New York on April 14–20, 1999. Voyage 1160 celebrated QE2’s 30th anniversary in service and formed the final transatlantic leg of her 1999 World Cruise.

Cunard’s Queen Elizabeth 2 arrived in Los Angeles on January 23, 2006, during her annual World Cruise. Illuminated at Berth 93 that evening, the legendary ocean liner was nearly 37 years into her Cunard career and less than three years from retirement, yet still making long-distance voyages around the world.
