Dubai is to buy the Queen Elizabeth 2 cruise ship for $100m (£50.5m) and turn it into a floating hotel off the Gulf emirate's man-made islands.
The 70,000-tonne vessel, launched by the Queen in 1967, is to be sold to the Dubai World firm by Carnival, the world's largest cruise operator.
Dubai government-owned real-estate developer Nakheel is building three palm-frond shaped isles off its coast.
The ship will be berthed from 2009 at a pier at the Palm Jumeirah development.
