Cunards three Queens will be in New York on Jan. 13 for the first and only time together. The British line's three ships, the Queen Mary 2, the Queen Elizabeth 2 and the recently launched Queen Victoria, will sail together out of New York harbor at 6:30 p.m. The QM2 will depart from its homeport in Brooklyn, and the QE2 and Queen Victoria will depart from piers on Manhattan's West Side; the three vessels will rendezvous to sail past the Statue of Liberty during a fireworks display at about 7:00 p.m. The QE2 will then depart on its 26th and final world cruise -- it retires in November to Dubai, where it will be used as a floating hotel.
