As a consumer, you could go on the replica of the Titanic and have stuff all facilities, or go on the new superliners (Queen Mary 2 for example) and have all the facilities and luxury.

Also, other than some shitty old website with badly photoshopped pictures, does anyone have any hard evidence that a cruise liner is constructing this?
Very true. I don't think they had lcd screens with dvd players back in 1911. I guess they will try and do a modern replica. So ballrooms, restaurants, rooms would reflect the original Titanic and the general shape/size etc, but they will throw in mod cons such as a/c internet tv etc
