Hello
My me is Imran Mayet.
My parents undertook a journey on the QE 2 from South Africa to Rio de Janeiro some time in November 1970.
They travelled as Mr and Mrs MA Mayet.
I would love to find out their cabin number and maybe a photograph of said cabin.
Any information pertaining to this historical event undertaking with regards to my parents will be greatly appreciated.
My wish is to pass on this information to my children and grandchildren.
Thank you kindly
Imran Mayet.

Thanks Sam for the link to the voyage on your fabulous resource.
I was proud to be involved with planning QE2's 50 year conference in September 2017 in Clydebank

Thank you very much for your message and details of the abstract log. Much appreciated. Is there any way that I can access the Passenger list of said voyage? Is there any records available?
