The waiver could play an outsized role as families of those who died consider their legal options. The form also makes it clear that the vessel is experimental and “constructed of materials that have not been widely used for manned submersibles.” Passengers also waive the right to take action for “personal injury, property damage or any other loss” that they experience on the trip, the document states. The waiver, which was reviewed by The Associated Press, said that passengers could experience physical injury, disability, emotional trauma and death while on board the Titan. If this at all sounds like something you'd at all like to do, we recommend you go watch Young Leo die in Titanic again.One of the waivers, signed by a person who planned to go on an OceanGate expedition, required passengers to acknowledge risks involved with the trip on the Titan vessel and any support vessels. Afterwards, assuming all goes well, it will circumnavigate the globe. It will make its way from Dubai to Southampton, England, where the Titanic boarded in 1912, then cross the Atlantic along the same path.
Titanic II's voyage starts exactly 110 years after the Titanic disaster. Unlike the first Titanic, which hit an iceberg and sank, killing 1,500 people, there will be modern navigation technology and safety procedures, as well as enough life boats to go around.
It is the same length as the original Titanic with the same cabin layout and interior, and the same three passenger classes. It will hold 2,400 passengers and 900 crew members, and cost $500 million. Titanic II is being built in China as we speak (unlike the original, which was built in Belfast). Now, Blue Star Line has announced that work on the luxury liner has resumed, MSN reports, and that it will be ready for its maiden voyage in 2022. However, due to financial troubles, the plans were stalled.
