5. Classism is Still in Play
The original Titanic’s passengers were split into three classes: first, second, and third. Accommodations and social status were profoundly impacted by which class you booked, and of course, the ability to pay for it. In the movie Titanic, Jack wins just enough to afford a third-class ticket, indicating his low social status, as opposed to Rose.
In the Titanic II, the accommodations are designed to be authentic to the original. This means smaller rooms at lower prices for the third class, and extreme luxury – and cost – for those in the first class. An option for passengers to experience all class options is “under consideration,” meaning a special ticket would arrange for them to live in all three types of quarters and experience the different pains and privileges of the various classes.
