I have added no
commentary to this page as I feel the photographs speak for themselves and they
reveal the elegance and beauty of this gracious liner. As can be seen, she has
well maintained teak decks, a traditional glass enclosed promenade and masses
of fine timber features throughout her interiors. Before she was sold to be
broken up in March 2009, I am sure you will be aware that her operators -
Imperial Majesty Cruises maintained Regal Empress magnificently! The ship has
now been broken up. See our Olympia Campaign page for details. Links are below.

Photographs
on ssmaritime and associate pages are by the author or from the author’s
private collection. In
addition there are some images that have been provided by Shipping Companies
and private photographers or collectors. Credit is given to all contributors.
However, there are some photographs provided to me without details regarding
the photographer/owner concerned. I hereby invite if owners of these images
would be so kind to make them-selves known to me (my email address may be found
on www.ssmaritime.com only), in order that due credit may be
given. I know what it is like,
I have seen a multitude of my own photographs on
other sites, yet these individuals either refuse to provide credit or remove
them when asked, knowing full well that there is no legal comeback when it
comes to the net. However, let us show these charlatans up and do the right
thing at all times and give credit where credit is due!
This notice covers all pages,
although, and I have done my best to ensure that all photographs are duly
credited and that this notice is displaced on each page, that is, when a page
is updated!
