2012-07-25 25

Relatives of those who died on the Titanic are travelling to the place where the ship sank to mark 100 years since the disaster.

A cruise liner is set to follow the exact same route of the 20th century's most infamous voyage from Southampton in southern England and should arrive at the site of the sinking for the anniversary on April 15.

1309 passengers are taking the trip, the same number carried on the doomed liner. They will even get to choose their meals from the same menu.
