In Honor of the Titanic's 100th

From the July 17th Chicago Tribune.

Two ships next year will embark on itineraries to mark the 100th anniversary of the RMS Titanic's maiden voyage in April 1912, ending in the tragedy with the iceberg. Plans are to feature the same menu as in 1912 and to have passengers dress in period attire.

The 1,309 tickets sold out quickly on the first 12-night Titanic Memorial cruise on the Balmoral.

And, it isn't cheap with prices starting at nearly $6,000 a person. there is a waiting list.

The Azamara Journey has sold out its cheapest interior rooms. The remaining ones start at $4,850 a person.

More information at www.titanicmemorialcruise.co.uk.

That would be some cruise, especially if the intention is to be at the very same spots at the very same times as the Titanic was, including when it hit the iceberg.
