I would agree that the Captain of such a vessel has an enormous responsibility on his shoulders, but he also has the support of dozens of Officers and Seamen. Judges (in the UK at least) have a workload that would surprise you, they don't just sit in judgement of criminal trials. Politicians are just cunts.

I've made three North Atlantic crossings in her, in 2004, 2005, and 2016. By the last one, things had changed. Mostly young Eastern European hotel crews, and "Hamilton Bermuda" was on her stern, instead of "Southampton." That Cunard magic was gone as well.

[@Broonthebhoy]

There is a pilot boat in each port which comes alongside the ship when he is finished, it will also deliver him to the ship when it is arriving into a port. He will call the boat on the radio and then an Officer escorts him down to a hatch in the side where he climbs down a ladder to embark the boat to take him back to shore.

[@quintinmare]

I like this video very very much❤🎉

[@homeric9]

I always considered it interesting that a P&O Captain was named Commodore of the Cunard Fleet. Bypassing the Cunard captains who had worked for years to be in line for the promotion. Then there is Alistair Greer who was a P&O employee for years. To shed light on why some of you may have heard Cunard feels "very P&O" is because Princess/P&O runs, manages & designs for Cunard. QE/QV were designed by P&O Lead Designer Therese Anderson & didthe recent QM2 refit. Cunard is a shell of its former self

[@Dbodell8000]

Cunardival!

[@homeric9]

@hurro67 It's also British designed, operated and managed. P&O handles a great deal of Cunard's operations while Princess Cruises handles much of the onboard operations and design og both Icky Vicky and the QE. Lead designer Therse Anderson, who gave us the Love Boat, also designed the last refit for QM2 and her upcoming refit at the end of the year. She may have strong UK owenrship ties..but she is a Carnival Cruise Lines vessel. NO desire to even look or travel on these Carnival ships

[@lasuvidaboy]

BTW, Titanic was also an American owned ship. Britain's White Star Line was owned by the IMM-an American company that owned several shipping lines. It later reverted to British ownership before merging w/Cunard in the 1930s,

@Lufthansa631: On a 7 night crossing (they've slowed the crossing time down due to fuel prices since this show was shot) there are 4 formal nights where most men where a tuxedo.

[@TITANICLUSITANIA]

That's the whole point the QM2 is an ocean liner, she's like the Titanic, Olympic, Britannic, Aquitania, Lusitania, Maretania, the first RMS Queen Mary, the first RMS Queen Elizabeth, RMS Queen Elizabeth II, SS Normandie, SS France, SS United States…etc. Queen Mary 2 is NOT a cruise ship like the Oasis of the seas, Carnival Dream, Disney Dream, Norwegian Jewel…etc.

[@TITANICLUSITANIA]

Nobody would yell that on today's ships. A radar would detect it and the bow thrusters would be turned on making the ship shift to the side much faster. Before the rudder and shaft propellers were the new. Now the QM2's mermaid pods eliminate the need of a propeller, she has a stronger engine and bow thrusters (propellers on the side of the front of the ship) to make her move faster.

[@Antifaith29]

Thats why you read your contract before taking the job. There are some great contracts , my wife used to be part of the deck crew and was making around 3,800(clear) a month + full benefits. Ontop of that she got free use of amenities ect ( provided a paying customer wasnt using) , she says it was one of the best jobs she ever had. So the pay isnt fantastic but its better than equivilent kind of jobs on land.

[@incandesantlite]

On night of the September 10th-11th 1995 the QM2 was slammed by a 95 foot high wave, followed by two smaller waves. The captain, Captain Warwick, reported winds to 130 miles per hour with average wave heights of 40 feet. The 95 foot wave hit as most passengers were asleep in their beds at 4:10am. The captain said, "At 04:10am the rogue wave was sighted right ahead, looming out of the darkness from 220°, it looked as though the ship was heading straight for the white cliffs of Dover. The wave seemed to take ages to arrive but it was probably less than a minute before it broke with tremendous force over the bow. An incredible shudder went through the ship, followed a few minutes later by two smaller shudders. There seemed to be two waves in succession as the ship fell into the 'hole' behind the first one. The second wave was of 28-29 meters, whilst breaking, it crashed over the foredeck, carrying away the forward whistle mast.

[@jonathanpardoe8722]

The account is correct , but the ship was not the qm2 , but the QE2 which remained unruffled after the rogue wave hit .

[@viktoralmen1060]

Dont think a bowtruster had make any differens for TT. Because when a ship make way into the water in high speed the bowthrusters doesent have any force. Turbulens from the waterstreaming in high speed make them useless, thats why QE 2 have doors in the tunnels and close them in the sea. Maybe a radar had gained them but like so often in history it wasent invented at that time. 1 st ship who had it.. Hard to know, some kind of workboat and ferrys where early to aply it.

WHats the difference between an ocean liner and a cruise ship?

[@NazmusLabs]

Mr. Sir a cruise ship cannot cross the Atlantic Ocean. An ocean liner like the RMS Titanic and the RMS Queen Mary 2 as seen on this video are designed to cross the Atlantic even on stormy weather. A cruise ship would likely topple over and sink. Also, an ocean liners are faster and more powerful.

[@cafsixtieslover]

I was on the QM2 a couple of years ago. Ocean liners have a totally different atmosphere to cruise ships, an atmosphere of elegance and classiness and an era of time gone by that you don't find on a cruise ship.

[@steve1978ger]

There are plenty of cruise ships that cross the Atlantic. But an Ocean liner is faster and more sea worthy, like ships were built before transcontinental air travel. Most cruise ships today are just built to carry as many paying passengers as possible, and they go around the worst weather which is possible today thanks to satellites.
