Well, everyone... I'd just like to take this opportunity to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year for 2024. Let's see what things Titanic 2024 will bring! Best Wishes to all!

Was Christmas a big deal back then on transatlantic voyages? I can't find any pictures of the Olympic having a Christmas tree or any mention of it.

I have some questions about that voyage at Christmas 1911. I know for sure that Olympic was at sea at Christmas 1911, tho there are several christmass menues dated by December 25th 1911. But I don't know if Olympic was going TO New York or FROM New York and also had she come to Cherburg and...

Hello, everyone. So this Christmas, I got an Oxford set model of the Titanic, and it's 68 centimeters (2 feet 2.77 inches) long. Oxford is basically a Lego bootleg from Korea. (Yes, Lego bricks and Oxford bricks can be used together.) I built the model today in just 4 to 5 hours, and I would...

Well, in the U.S., Thanksgiving is upon us and, in just two short days the Christmas Shopping rush commences. Here are a few suggestions, across a wide range of prices, for that liner buff to whom a Jack and Rose potpourri holder no longers holds the appeal it once did: OLYMPIC SWIMMING POOL...

Well, apparently, this aired in August on Britain's Channel 4 but I never heard about it! (unless it was rescheduled to now). Time Team's Tony Robinson and James Cameron pair up for a Christmas Adventure to be aired over Christmas on Channel 4. I forget the date because I'm rubbish like...

I've been pondering for the past few days, was there a Christmas tree onboard the White Star Liners, especially the 'superliners' like Olympic, Majestic, &c.? Whilst the reception room on 'D' Deck would be the most appropriate, the main forward foyer on 'A' Deck, with the lead and glass dome...

Hey, I was wondering what the Christmas trees looked like. Did they have electric lighting? Sahand

Did the Olympic have Christmas decorations during the xmas period?? Do any Photographs exist of her as such??

Christmas 1911 - Reckon between all of us we could paint a pretty good picture of what various passengers and crew were up to 90 years ago I'll kick it off (and probably just carry on talking to myself if no one else is bothered lol) Jack Phillips left the Adriatic and returned home to...

Just wanted to say Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, etc. to all my great Titanic friends. Each year I look back and think of all the good new friends I've made, odl friendships that grow stronger, the help I've received in researching the passengers, the things I've learned about the big...

I'm feeling the warmth -- and the melancholy -- of the season lately, and it ocurred to me that, as the day draws near, it might be interesting to speculate on what it would have been like, had she survived, to celebrate Christmas on Titanic. It never happened, of course. But if it had, what...
