Anyone know when are they going to complete the new RMS. Titanic dedicated to the old RMS. Titanic?

Question

Back a few years ago when they found the remains of the Titanic off the coast of New Foundland CA, there were reports that they were going to build a new Titanic to dedicate to the old one and it will sail the same route it was originally planed when it sank in 1912. Do you know when that ship will be finished and how much will it cost to secure a berth on the new RMS. Titanic-Liverpool?

Answer 1

There have been a few ideas for a new Titanic although I don't believe that they have gone any further than that. I found an article from the New York Post dated April 6th 1998

and a website that lists all the ideas, proposers and progress to date.

Many ideas have been proposed but nothing concrete has emerged.

Answer 2

Probably NEVER.   No cruise line will ever build another Titanic if you are talking a reproduction of a ship the same size and configuration.  The movie glamorized the upper class accommodations but today a cruise line could not fill 2nd and 3rd class at the necessary price.  The few suites would not earn enough to make money to justify the cost of a ship(and that's what the cruise business is all about).

If you're talking about just naming a new current day cruise ship Titanic - Why?  It's bad enough when things go wrong on a ship.  No one should ever tempt fate.

Sorry, I know you wanted a different answer but I think these are the facts of life.
