MS Queen Elizabeth

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Top contributor Icarus Aerial created this beautiful drone video of the cruise ship HMS Queen Elizabeth, a Vista-class cruise ship operated by Cunard. With a length of just under 300 meters (around 950 ft.), these Panamax-sized ships can carry over 2,000 passengers. The ship's design allows a very high percentage of the cabins to have outside views. As of early 2019, the Queen Elizabeth is one of three ships operated by the famed line, which retired the Queen Elizabeth 2 in 2008.
