The managers said that the former flagship of the Cunard Line went through "deep cleaning and restoration of painting", now everything is ready for the final phase of the restoration of the ship. The liner engines were removed, and a new Queen Elizabeth 2 livery in Arabic and English was attached to the ship. At the stern of the liner flaunts a visible tourist logo of Dubai.
