Cunard flagship Queen Mary 2 is to make its first voyage around the UK in the autumn.

The ship will depart from Southampton on October 10 with ports of call including Greenock and Liverpool – ports which have close historic ties with Cunard.

The cruise marks the fifth anniversary of QM2, which entered service in January 2004,

Since entering into service, the vessel has sailed almost 750,000 nautical miles, completed 104 Atlantic crossings and made calls to 115 ports in 45 countries.

Cunard president and managing director Carol Marlow said: “We are very proud of our flagship and her achievements since she entered service and this is an important anniversary for Queen Mary 2.

“This ship spearheads Cunard’s fleet of the most famous ocean liners in the world which currently consists of Queen Mary 2 and Queen Victoria.

“From October 2010, when the new Queen Elizabeth enters service, Cunard, one of the oldest names in shipping, will have the youngest fleet in the industry.”
