The idea of a multiple class ship offends some people's sense of democracy, and Cunard ships are ocean liners that adhere in not-so-subtle fashion to the tradition of class distinctions. This is the 21st century, though, so you won't find steerage class, and even regular folks in the cheaper cabins will enjoy the superior surroundings. However, certain areas of Queen Mary 2, including the Queen's Grill Lounge, a private sun terrace, and even a private elevator, are reserved for occupants of privileged accommodations. So luxury on a Cunard ship is a relative experience and certainly more luxurious for some. |

Queen Mary 2 uses an Arabic 2 rather than the Roman numeral used by monarchs because it's a sequel to the original ship.
