Titanic sails again!
2012 is of course going to be the 100th Anniversary of the Titanic sinking. A company is setting up a trans-Atlantic cruise to do the exact same route.
8th April 2012 is the date that the ship is departing as it is exaclty 100 years since the Titanic set sail. It is also leaving from the exact same port as the original which of course is Southampton. Once it has left the port it will then stop at Cobh in Ireland in the same way that the real thing did to make the experience even more life like.
The ship is going to arrive on the spot where the Titanic sunk at 11.40 which is when it hit the iceburg. 2am is around the time the ship will carry on with its journey to New York.2am was the time in which the ship sunk.
This is certainly not going to be a disrespectful trip as the vessal is set to have a short memorial service during these hours. There will also be lectures on board as well as food and music from the era.
The ship will contain 710 cabins and will hold 1,350 passengers and a crew of around 150. The prices are of course not going to be cheap so watch out for that. This is truly going to be the luxury cruises of a life time.
Of course most of the cheaper cabins for the price above have already sold out so perhaps if you are interested in taking a cruise you should think about taking another cruise like one of those Rhine River Cruises or perhaps Silversea cruises would be a better move to make.
