On 12 January 2004, the Queen Mary 2 set sail on her maiden voyage from Southampton, England to Fort Lauderdale, Florida in the United States, carrying 2,620 passengers under tight security due to terrorist threats. During the XXVIII Olympics the QM2 sailed to Athens and docked at Piraeus for two weeks for use as a hotel-ship, serving former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and his wife Cherie, former French President Jacques Chirac, former US president George H. W. Bush, and the US Olympic men's basketball team.
