Didn't the wealthy pay upwards of $2,000.00 for a spot on the Titanic?
So at 1914 Dollars, the cost of ONE ticket would not seem outrageous to those that like over sized cruise ships akin to small Cities with excessive shopping and gambling.

How many usable Life Boats are on this ship AND is there pirate deflecting weaponry or does the ship merely seal up??
Do passengers have to remove their shoes to board boats/ships?
At least with ships one can actually get ON, as opposed to planes and trains where it is preferred one gets IN.

I wonder how stable such a construction is in severe weather like Hurricanes?
Remember the Poseidon Adventure, but that was just a story right?

Thanks for the ticket price link pro1driver.
Even the cheap room seems a might steep for me,and the wife.

And the high priced suite well that is really out of my budget.

from what i have been told by friends/relatives that have been on a cruise, there is food served nearly 24 hours each day.

can you imagine how busy GT would be getting to the dock to supply all that food...??? poor guy would be exhausted after a day like that...!!!

can you imagine the food storage area alone.......???

my gosh, that's gotta take up nearly half the deck it is located on.....

I loaned him some money for the casino... with all that high interest I am charging he will pay for the tickets for my wife and I. Just joking pro 1!!!

The way pro1 gambles and loses (HIS statement), he is best not to venture to ANY Casino that may require REAL funding, unless using O.P.M. or O.V.M. --(Other Peoples' Money, Other Victims' Money)--
I'll slide some to p1d from time to time, and I hope he doesn't get addicted to the slides as the Pool water was removed because he acquired a cheap suite.

The $5,200+ Suite for a mere 9 day cruise is a sweet deal for those that don't sweat the small stuff.
Must be one of the LARGEST Suites available.
