Across the oceans again: QE2’s owner plans trip to Cape Town

Just seven months after her “final voyage” from Southampton to Dubai to become a floating hotel off the Palm Jumeirah, the Queen Elizabeth 2 may have one more trip ahead of her.

Dubai World, the ports and property conglomerate, has applied to the National Ports Authority of Cape Town, South Africa, to berth the cruise liner in the commercial port area.

Ronel Bester, a spokeswoman for the country’s tourism ministry, confirmed that the application had been filed, and said a decision would be made by July 17.
