Would You Retrace Titanic's Last Voyage?

Am I the only one who finds the idea of a memorial cruise commemorating the 100th anniversary of Titanic's sinking a bit odd?

Reservations are open now for this April 8, 2012 twelve-night cruise aboard the MS Balmoral from Southampton to New York City. Miles Morgan Travel, a British firm, is partnering with Fred Olsen Cruises to present this itinerary that follows the RMS Titanic's itinerary:

• Southampton, England
• Cobh, Ireland
  
• Sail the Atlantic to the site of Titanic's sinking
• Halifax, Nova Scotia
• New York City

MS Balmoral will arrive at the Titanic's resting place on April 14/15, exactly 100 years after that fateful evening. After a memorial service, your ship will continue on to Halifax (where many of Titanic's victims were laid to rest) and then on to New York City, Titanic's original disembarkation point.

Cruise fares start at $4,200 per person for an inside stateroom. Visit the Titanic Memorial Cruise website for more information.
