Beginning in 1931 she offered not only standard passenger transport between Quebec & England but luxury trans-Atlantic passenger service to various ports of call in Europe---and eventually beyond. The itinerary described in this 1934 excursion which left New York on January 4th was even more extensive taking guests on a 130-day excursion to 33 ports including the Holy Land Gibraltar Cairo Bangkok Ceylon then across the Equator to Java Bali & China then back northward through Honolulu California & Panama. The ship boasted "spacious superbly appointed apartments.not cabins.with ball louvre ventilation & wireless telephony supplementing wireless telegraphy along with "cuisine for the most fastidious" a gymnasium two pools Turkish baths & 11 lounges/dining rooms. The cost was $2100 with shore excursions $1600 without approximately $50000 in 2024 dollars. On 28 Oct 1940 the Empress was torpedoed by a German U-boat & sank acquiring the ignominious distinction of being the largest ocean liner lost in WWII & the largest ship sunk by a U-boat.
