The interior of Titanic II, a 1912 titanic replica that could sail in 2022

The history of Titanic has intrigued us for many years, and for the most fascinated with her, there will soon be a way to experience the wonder of climbing one of the most luxurious cruises in the world.

In 2022, a new ship inspired by the authentic titanic with space for 2.400 passengers could sail for the first time, thanks to the Australian businessman Clive Palmer, who has invested 460 million in this project.

The Titanic LL, although equipped with navigation and security technology of the 21st century, will be a replica similar to the original vessel.

This is the comparison between the navigation of the Titanic LL and that of the Titanic of 1912.

The RMS Titanic was the greatest cruise of its time in early 1900, and its builders were proud explaining that it was impossible for him to sink.

The transatlantic covered 268.8 meters long and 30.3 wide.

If we compare it with the largest cruise of today, it is very small.The 'Symphony of the Seas' by Royal Caribbean, is 362 meters long and covers 65 meters wide in its widest part.

On April 10, 1912, the Titanic sailed on its inaugural trip from Southampton, England, through the Atlantic Ocean to New York with 2.200 passengers and crew on board.

Titanic II ticket prices are not yet available.However, in comparison, a trip aboard the original Titanic would have cost between 324 euros for a bunk in a third -class cabin and 92.000 euros for a first -class cabin (if we talk about the current value of money).
