One of the most luxurious cruise ships in the world, Queen Elizabeth, laid anchor in the Greek port of Piraeus. The ship was named by Queen Elizabeth of England herself in October 2010. The cruise ship will start its journey from Greece to finally arrive in Istanbul, Turkey. Queen Elizabeth displaces 90,400 tons, has a length of 294 meters, a width of 32 meters, a draught of 8 meters and can accommodate 2,058 passengers and 1,000 crew members. The ship is sailing around the Mediterranean for the last two months offering 7 and 14 day cruises. A windowless cabin on a 7-day cruise costs 499 euros per person while a cabin with a private balcony costs 1099 euros. The ship left Greece on Friday morning for a 7 day cruise which will include many Greeks who prefer a luxurious floating five star hotel, than spending their holidays in Greece or abroad.
