OceanGate continues to sell tickets after the disaster on Titan

As you remember, on June 18, the Titan submarine, owned by OceanGate, with five passengers, disappeared in the Atlantic Ocean. After the mysterious disappearance of the Titan on the way to the wreckage of the Titanic, the whole world turned its eyes to the depths of the ocean. The search and rescue operations undertaken in the subsequent period were unsuccessful, and after some time fragments of Titan were found, which were the grave of 5 people.

After the tragic disaster, which had a great resonance all over the world, it was argued that the Titan submarine did not meet safety standards. However, OceanGate is back on the agenda these days. Because even after the tragic disaster of the submarine, the Titanic continues to sell tickets for its cruises! Let’s look at the details together.

The Titanic submarine, owned by OceanGate, has mysteriously disappeared while on a tourist trip to the Titanic shipwreck.

The surface communications of the submarine, which was heading to the bottom of the ocean on June 18, were interrupted, and a large-scale search and rescue operation was launched. The work, which lasted about 4 days, was followed with great interest all over the world. However, no research results were received.

Titan was a grave for 5 people in it.

Pakistani-born British businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood, French explorer and explorer Paul-Henri Nargolet, explorer Hamish Harding and Oceangate CEO Stockton Rush were killed in a tragic accident on Titan by a submarine that exploded due to pressure on the ocean floor.

After the Titan disaster, which had a great resonance around the world, it was alleged that the security measures on the submarine owned by OceanGate were not up to standard.

According to some experts, the Titan was far from being a safe enough submarine due to the company’s policy of reducing fares. According to experts, this was the main cause of the terrible accident. However, OceanGate is back on the agenda with controversial news.

Shortly after the Titanic disaster, OceanGate began selling tickets for a cruise to the wreck of the Titanic.

According to the information on the company’s website, OceanGate is ready to go to the wreck of the Titanic with new passengers in June 2024! Details of two different trips scheduled for June 12-20 and June 21-29, 2024 are posted on the website. As before, the fare per person on these trips is said to be $250,000. However, there are other details about these “dangerous” trips.

According to the website, the price includes diving training, accommodation and research equipment!

In addition, it is stated that passengers will be able to explore the wreckage of the Titanic for hours with a guide in a submarine.
