What is the same thing did 11 million people worldwide do in 2004? They took a cruise. Of course, some extremely rich people did not take a cruise technically but they used their yachts and spent days in opulence in the midst of the ocean. But for people like you and me, we have to be content with a cruise package offered by various travel agencies. If you think cruising is for old people or your parents, than you are wrong, my friend.

Before you hurry up and buy your discounted cruise tickets advertised in the Internet or one of those travel magazines, you should be aware of the reality. Cruise prices are going up every year. Rooms are filling up very fast. So, bargains may not always be available. However, bargain prices can be found just before or after the holidays, or in shoulder seasons. Shoulder seasons vary from region to region, for example September for Alaskan cruises.

Get ready for some unexpected problems in a deep discounted cruise ship. But, hey, don’t forget that you also saved a bundle by purchasing a discounted trip. Engine problems are very common and some port of calls may be cancelled due to engine problems. If a port of call is cancelled you may have little recourse for a partial refund because your discounted ticket may have small prints that say that the cruise line can change their itinerates at their discretion.

Imagine thousands of people in close proximity in a cruise ship. What do you expect? Well, how about viruses? Yes, a cruise ship is an idle breeding ground for all those nasty viruses. Check the CDC (center for Disease Control) web site for worldwide virus outbreak. But that should not dampen your cruise going spirit. Just stay healthy, exercise, wash your hands frequently with disinfecting soap and you will be fine.

Don’t pay a premium for airfare purchased through the cruise lines even if they promise you that they will hold the ship if your flight is delayed. Shop for your own airfare and the connections you prefer. Most of the time you will be ahead of the game and you don’t have to fly red eye or use lousy connections.

If the cruise line is promising an all-inclusive fare, try to understand their language. They are saying, hey, we will cover your foods, non-alcoholic drinks, and entertainment. You are on your own if you want to get intoxicated. But that should be fine because there is not much opportunity to spend a fortune in a discounted cruise ship.

Don’t fall for the gourmet food hype. Realize that it is a buffet style food, plenty, good but definitely not gourmet. There may be alternative restaurants besides the buffet style food. Sometimes, you have to pay in those restaurants. So be prepared for that.

When the ship arrives at a port of call, either you can purchase their excursion tour or explore on your own. These excursion tours are money maker for cruise lines. If you want to purchase travel insurance, shop at insuremytrip.com and try to avoid the insurance offered by the cruise line. Don’t get upset, if you find beer and pretzels, instead of, champagne and caviar. Enjoy your cruise and be happy that you are not spending a fortune for your vacation.

I’ve listed shipwrecks that caused more than 23,000 deaths in total.

So was the Titanic the most costly in human life?

Some think so.

They are wrong.

Ship Wrecks (over 1000 killed)

April 27, 1865: The Sultana exploded on the Mississippi River near Memphis. The boilers were faulty which made steamships dangerous. (1450 deaths) Read about the Sultana at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~genepool/sultana.htm. This site claims that there were over 1700 deaths.

April 14-15, 1912: The Titanic sunk after hitting an iceberg in the Atlantic. Deaths were caused by the shortage of lifeboats, the mishandling of lifeboats, waiting too long to drop lifeboats, and the failure of certain other ships to quickly respond. The Titanic was supposed to be unsinkable. If the liner had hit the iceberg head-on rather than a side-splitting glancing blow, it probably would not have sunk. Lower-class passengers suffered the most. (1503 deaths) Read about and see photos of the Titanic at: http://www.titanic-online.com/. You can read the radio transmissions at: http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Cauldron/5807/Titanic/message.html.

May 17, 1915: The Lusitania was sunk by a German submarine off Ireland. The Germans claimed that the ship was carrying armaments. Recent dives indicate that it was. (1198 deaths) Read about the great ship and the political intrigue at: http://www.pbs.org/lostliners/lusitania.html.

February 26, 1916: The French cruiser, La Provence, sank in the Mediterranean. (3100 deaths) Don’t confuse with the battleship much later. Read about the ship at: http://www.greatships.net/provence.html. This site claims that the number of deaths was over 900. You can have fun researching that discrepancy. It was carrying troops, but many were saved. Losses were partly caused by rough seas hindering the launch of lifeboats. A German submarine sank the ship.

December 16, 1917: The Mount Blanc, Imo, a French ammunition ship collided with a Belgium steamer in Halifax Harbor. (1600 deaths) This is one of the most fascinating events in history. Not only was the ship in danger. Read about it at: http://www.cbc.ca/halifaxexplosion/he2_ruins/he2_ruins_countdown_catastrophe.html. Here is an excerpt: “The steel hull burst sky-high, falling in a blizzard of red-hot, twisted projectiles on Dartmouth and Halifax. Some pieces were tiny; others were huge. Part of the anchor hit the ground more than 4 kilometers away on the far side of Northwest Arm. A gun barrel landed in Dartmouth more than 5 kilometers from the harbor.”

November 1948: Chinese army evacuation ship exploded off Southern Manchuria. (6000 deaths) I found nothing of interest on this disaster. It is covered in some book but I couldn’t find a good web site. If you find one, please email me. I learned at http://liners.greatnet.us/shipwreck_timeline.htm that the ship was carrying Chinese Nationalist Soldiers from Manchuria.

December 3, 1948: Chinese refugee ship exploded south of Shanghai. (1100+ deaths) I found no web site on this either. At http://liners.greatnet.us/shipwreck_timeline.htm I learned that these were refugees fleeing Communist China.

September 26, 1954: The Toya Maru, a Japanese ferry sank in the Tsugaru Strait. (1172) Some U.S. military personal died in this disaster.

December 20, 1987: The Dona Paz, a Philippine ferry sank after colliding with an oil tanker in Tablas Strait. (3000+ deaths) Read more at http://www.hazardcards.com/card.php?id=14.

Feb. 17, 1993: The Neptune: triple-deck ferry capsized off southern peninsula of Haiti during a squall. Over 1,000 passengers believed drowned. About 300 survived the sinking.

September 26, 2002: Senegalese state-run ferry, the Joola, sank off the coast of Gambia. (1800 deaths). Read about the aftermath at http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/2290490.stm.
