The northern route is the TITANIC route from Southampton, England, to New York along the southern coast of Greenland. The Titanic's run-in with an iceberg in that region sealed the fate of the pride of the White Star Line in 1912. This route is the shortest, taking an average of seven days.
Special features:
Titanic’s accommodations were considered the most modern and luxurious on any ocean, and included electric light and heat in every room, electric elevators, a swimming pool, a squash court, a Turkish bath, a gymnasium with a mechanical horse and mechanical camel to keep riders fit, and staterooms and first-class facilities to rival the best hotels on the Continent. First-class passengers would glide down a six-story, glass-domed grand staircase to enjoy the finest cuisine in the first-class dining saloon that spanned the width of the ship. For those who desired a more intimate atmosphere, Titanic also offered the chic Palm Court and Verandah restaurants, and the festive Café Parisien. The liner had two musical ensembles, rather than the standard one, and two libraries,(first- and second-class). Even the third-class, or steerage, cabins were more luxurious than the first-class cabins on other steamships, and boasted amenities like indoor toilet facilities that some of Titanic's emigrant passengers had not enjoyed in their own homes.
Luxuries and Accommodations:
• 28 fully decorated First Class Suites.
• Heated swimming pool.
• 4 electric elevators ( 3 in First Class and 1 in Second Class).
• Indoor squash court on F Deck.
• Indoor toilets.
• 2 libraries.
• 4 restaurants.
• 3 galleys.
• 2 musical ensembles (a quintet for First Class Lounge and a trio for the a-la carte reception room).
• Fully equipped gymnasium.
• 2 barber shops.
• a fully equipped darkroom.
• a fully staffed medical bay with 2 physicians and an operating room.
• Titanic used 14,000 gallons of drinking water each day.

She started from Southampton, England, and stopped at Cherbourg, France and Queenstown, Ireland to pick up passengers. Her destination was New York. She sank 1000 miles due east of Boston, Massachusetts, and 375 miles southeast of St. John's, Newfoundland.
On April 10, 1912, the RMS Titanic set sail from Southampton on her maiden voyage to New York. At that time, she was the largest and most luxurious ship ever built. At 11:40 PM on April 14, 1912, she struck an iceberg about 400 miles off Newfoundland, Canada. Although her crew had been warned about icebergs several times that evening by other ships navigating through that region, she was traveling at near top speed of about 20.5 knots when one grazed her side.

Boston has a wealthy history and a diverse neighbourhood; it's a legacy of arts, tradition, and education; Boston has something for all therefore find what Boston can provide you with with hotelbye . The three-mile Freedom Trail brings you past - and in to - 16 of the city's principal traditional monuments and sites. It's easy to follow along with, by the type of red bricks in the pavement and by footprints at street crossings. The path can get you to Old Granary Burying Ground wherever Paul Revere, Samuel Adams, and John Hancock are hidden; will take you to King's Chapel Burying Ground, the Boston's oldest cemetery; Old South Meeting House where the ringing speeches of patriots spawned the Boston Tea Party and the Old State House, Boston's oldest community making and your website of the Boston Massacre.

RMS Titanic foundered on her maiden voyage, and therefore never established a regular route or ports of call.
Please do yourself a favor and learn to look these things up for yourself. The Titanic tragedy is one of the most documented events of history, and there are tons of web sites with stories and pictures of the ship and its appointments.
Just do an internet search on "RMS Titanic." You need to include the designation RMS, for Royal Mail Ship. If you just look under "titanic," you get too many ads for penis enlargement pills.
