A US-based travel agency has come up with an outlandish offer! Passengers on their trip to the Bermuda Triangle will get a full refund if their ship disappears.
Bermuda Triangle is a mysterious region spanning around 700,000 square-kilometre in the northern Atlantic Ocean where several ships and planes are said to have disappeared. Scientists, however, claim human error and weather phenomena as the reasons.
“Don't worry about disappearing on this Bermuda Triangle tour. The tour has a 100 per cent return rate and your money will be refunded in the rare chance you disappear," The Ancient Mysteries Cruise wrote in an advertisement on its website.
The agency is charging up to £1,450 (USD 1556) for cabins on the two day trip with the Norwegian Prima liner heading from New York to Bermuda, the Mirror reported. As per the advertisement, passengers will start their journey from New York to Bermuda on March 28, 2023.
The tour includes a twilight Bermuda Triangle cruise on a glass bottom boat with talks, presentations and Q&As.
The region, also dubbed as the Devil's Triangle, is located in an area of the Atlantic Ocean where storms from multiple directions can converge, making rogue waves more likely to occur.
Although theories of supernatural causes are doing the rounds over the disappearances of ships and planes, the region remains as one of the most heavily traveled shipping lanes in the world.
“There is no evidence that mysterious disappearances occur with any greater frequency in the Bermuda Triangle than in any other large, well-traveled area of the ocean,” the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration of the US government has said in its report.
