Bluefish, a luxury concierge firm based in Los Angeles, first offered an expedition to the Titanic site at the bottom of the North Atlantic Sea to its private clients in 2002. The firm took only eight people to the site between 2002 and 2006. And after the recession put a stranglehold on luxury spending, Bluefish took an economy-induced hiatus. "The recession hit and everything went to pot," said Steve Sims, the concierge firm's founder.

independent.ie	THE TITANIC LOVE STORY THAT CAUSED A RIFT IN MY FAMILY Tom and Hannah had tickets for another vessel but were transferred to the Titanic. It must have seemed like a stroke of luck because steerage on the Titanic was equivalent to second class elsewhere. They shared their cabin with another couple.

Everyone knows what happened next. Three days after leaving Cobh, on the night of April 14, 1912, the Titanic collided with an iceberg. It was a catastrophe that could have been averted if ice warnings from other ships had been heeded.

It stood at the corner of Broadway and 42nd Street, and its theater district location made it popular with people in the entertainment industry; Enrico Caruso maintained a suite at the Knickerbocker, as did Lusitania victim Charles Frohman.
