This is the most usual time, but please check for your sailing date. Once on board and settled into your stateroom, listen for announcements about emergency drill. This is held at 16:00 and takes about 20 minutes. You listen for the alarm bells, fetch your lifejackets from your stateroom and go to your allocated muster station where staff will brief you on emergency procedures and you'll listen to an announcement by the captain. When it's over, return your lifejackets to your stateroom and head up on deck for departure. Soon after 17:00 the QM2 sails, with a band playing on her aft decks and glasses of champagne available (around $17). She is sometimes moored facing upstream, sometimes downstream, and if she's moored facing upstream at the City or Mayflower terminals, she'll first head further upstream before turning around, somehow managing to turn her 1,130 foot length without hitting the far bank of the river or the small boats moored there.

If sailing from the QEII terminal there's a turning basin nearby where she will turn round. Southampton's historic Ocean Terminal: Cunard no longer use the traditional and historic Ocean Terminal dock, from which the original Queen Mary, Queen Elizabeth and even Titanic would have sailed. Indeed, the old 1950 terminal building was demolished in 1983 and this hugely historic location now looks totally unremarkable, a freight dock with a couple of multi-storey car parks next to it for vehicle exports. You won't know that you're looking at it unless you know where it is, so see this map. It's just north of the QEII terminal, just south of the City & Mayflower terminals. About the old Ocean Terminal. After turning around, the Queen Mary 2 heads downstream into the Solent, heading directly towards Cowes on the Isle of Wight before making a tight turn to port (left) in the deep water channel, passing Ryde to starboard (right) and Portsmouth to port. The QM2 rounds the Isle of Wight using the deep water route to the east (although this looks like the long way round on a map) and heads out into the English Channel. By breakfast next morning, you're well past Bishop Rock lighthouse and out in the Atlantic. Queen Mary 2 (wallpaper 3). Queen Mary 2 ship images wallpaper gallery 3.
