Titanic Memorial Cruise, two theme cruises retracing the same route the original ship

The wreck of the Titanic back to life and back on the road again on the occasion of the centenary of the sinking. This is the Titanic Memorial Cruise on the occasion of the centenary of that famous voyage ever accomplished will be two theme cruises that cover the same route the original ship to bring it to your destination. The early hours of 15 April 1912, the British ocean liner, en route from Southampton to New York on its maiden voyage, had a collision with an iceberg and sank in the Atlantic Ocean. One of the greatest naval tragedies of all time, which cost the lives of 2223 people on board in 1523.

/> The two cruises will be made with the preparation period, in order to recreate the furniture, food, and entertainment that was present on the liner. And of course the passengers will wear period costumes. It’s a way to revive them the same feelings that you might try then, according to Miles Morgan, founder of Miles Morgan Travel, the company that designed the trip. Passengers will among others, the descendants of some of the survivors of the disaster held lectures and readings on the books that they themselves have written on this subject in collaboration with the living witnesses who survived the shipwreck.
The trip was originally designed for a single ship, the MS Balmoral, whose departure is scheduled for April 8 from Southampton for a cruise of 12 nights. But since its 1309 seats have been sold out once you have decided to establish a second visit, the Azamara Journey, the Royal Caribbean will depart from New York on April 10 and will follow the reverse route arriving in Southampton on 8 days. The cost of the trip varies from a minimum of $ 4,900 to a maximum of $ 14,850 for the super-luxury car. A third of the seats on the second ship is still available.

The two ships will make a landing in Halifax for a visit to the Memorial of the Victims of the Titanic, a symbolic tomb with stones for each survivor died in ‘ ocean. A ceremony will be held on site to pay homage to the victims. Apart from that date, are not released other details about the type of cruise company.
