Hopefully the first voyage will be in warm weather with no icebergs.

That’s cool. I’d love to take a vintage crossing like that. Wonder how expensive it is?
To: EdnaMode
Hopefully,they will rely on something more advanced than two guys in the crow’s nest without their binoculars. Your average bass boat has more sophisticated navigational gear than was available to Captain Smith in 1912

Perhaps the DNC could hold a convention on it......

It looks like the replica doesn’t have a section for the “steerage” passengers.

Something about this wouldn’t be the same. As long as they are authentically recreating the Titanic and its voyage, they should recreate the iceberg too. Might put a Rose and Jack on board, just to give it more interest in our Hollyweirded world.

They’ve been talking about “Titanic II” since the movie came out. Have they even laid the keel yet?

Wonder if any of the cast from the movie or James Cameron will be on board.

If this goes well, maybe they can replicate the Hindenburg.

Thats cool. Id love to take a vintage crossing like that. Wonder how expensive it is? If you have to ask, you cant afford it! Nobody uses passenger ships for transportation, since the airliners are so much faster. So this is just an interesting concept" cruise ship.
I question how many steerage class tickets will be sold . . .
To: G Larry
Perhaps the DNC could hold a convention on it...... Well, it is under the auspices of the Blue Star Line.

Well, of course. Nobody took the QEII because they wanted to get to Europe fast. It was a status trip, and the price tag reflected it.
To: StoneRainbow68
If it is a true replica I would imagine that it would be very expensive and uncomfortable.
I dont know but I would guess that only the first class cabins would have private bathrooms.
And since the Titanic had far fewer state rooms than a modern cruise liner the cost would be spread across far fewer passengers.
