As you know, the QE2 will be retired after 40 years of glamorous seafaring.
She will become a luxury hotel in Dubai, at the Palm Jumeirah resort.

I have been many times in Dubai during the last two years.
INNOVATION, my company, works for the Arab Media Group (AMG) and I witnessed the incredible boom of Dubai.
I am sure that the QE2 will be treated there like she deserves.
Work is about to start on a new berth for the cruise ship at a palatial pier which will stretch 1,000 feet into the Arabian Gulf.

“The arrival of QE2 is one of the most anticipated events of the year and we are proud to be the custodian of such a historic treasure. The world’s most famous ocean liner will form the focal point of an exciting new development that will be a spectacular and must-see attraction on Palm Jumeirah.”

Everything I've heard is about major, major surgery to QE2 in Dubai. E.g. complete removal of everything below 3-deck, and complete rebuild of the superstructure with extra decks of penthouses, and a giant glass funnel with penthouses inside.
Even her vast collection of historic artefacts will be housed off the ship.
