I'd be looking out for icebergs, wouldn't you?

It's a strange way to mark the hundredth anniversary of such a huge tragedy - but to anyone who thinks it's a bit weird or possibly even mawkish to take this trip, just think - it's totally sold-out. All 1,309 berths aboard the Balmoral (exactly the same number as on the Titanic) were snapped up straightaway, costing between of £2,799 and £5,995 per person. Plus, they're serving food from the original voyage's menu - and many passengers are dressing up in period gear.
For that price, I would rather like to relax and enjoy my days at sea. But I know I'd be spending all my spare time on deck, eyes peeled for icebergs - wouldn't you?
