Thought I’d heard not too long ago that the QEII was on its way east to be broken up for scrap? Was that wrong, or was there a reprieve along the way?

Last I’d heard, there was a maybe reprive....she might be turned into a luxury hotel in the UAE. Some sheik or another has offered to buy her and refit her into a hotel, like the Queen Mary.

There's the "Queen Elizabeth" and the "Queen Elizabeth II". Different ships.
