Trans-Atlantic cruise marks Titanic's sinking

[Andrew Clarkson]

What could possibly go wrong?

A trans-Atlantic cruise in 2012 will mark the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, departing, as the original ship did, on April 8, from Southampton, England, and arriving at the spot in the North Atlantic where the Titanic sank on April 15. There a memorial service will be held onboard exactly 100 years after the Titanic hit an iceberg and sank, between 11:40 p.m., on April 14, 2012, and 2:20 a.m. on April 15.

The cruise will then head to Halifax, Nova Scotia, where passengers can visit three cemeteries where Titanic victims are buried, before heading to New York, the Titanic’s final destination — arriving in time to celebrate the end of the world, set for Dec. 21 that year, according to the Mayan calendar and a Hollywood movie.
