Thats a totally different era, dude... Billionaires are different now then it was back then
I would rather stay on the titanic and see how the rich lived their lives back then. Titanic is sooooo iconic....
and let me guess, you just went on google and searched for the largest cruise ship and didnt even know of this ship until you searched...

That article is old, the newer identical sister ship of the Oasis, the Allure of the Seas is actually larger by 5 millimeters due to manufacturing variances.

According to wikipedia:

Quote:
She has, however, since been surpassed by her sister ship MS Allure of the Seas, which is 50 millimetres (2.0 in) longer, although this difference may have been caused by the temperature of the ship at the time.

According to CNN the new ship will be segregated and people will be given period clothing.

How come no remote submarine have taken any images of the grand Titanic lobby?

Makes me think conspiracy reports of a sister ship being sunk for insurance purposes could be true and the real Titanic is still out there and its luxury inside dismantled.

That's like saying you'd rather be in a De Havilland Comet than an Airbus A380.
