"The era of transatlantic ocean voyages by ship came to an end..."

That seems to simply be not true. The QE2 was still doing it as late as 1978 - from that article:

"On 23 July 1976 while Queen Elizabeth 2 was 80 miles off the Scilly Isles on a transatlantic voyage..."

I am cutting that content to here:

• The era of transatlantic ocean voyages by ship came to an end as the luxury liner SS United States docked at the New York harbor after its final tour of Europe^[1]. The empty liner then moved into drydock, arriving at Norfolk, Virginia, on November 7, ostensibly in preparation for its next scheduled voyage on December 19. A week later, United States Lines announced the cancellation of its three scheduled trips because of increasing financial losses ^[2]

(End of cut material)

It could be that it was the end of such work for this one vessel, but it needs to be presented that way clearly, I think. If it even matters. Huw Powell (talk) 03:09, 29 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
