Although there is some discrepancy in the measurement of gross tonnage, the current largest passenger ships of all time are indisputably Royal Caribbean International's Freedom of the Seas, Independence of the Seas and Liberty of the Seas -- all listed as 160,000 gross tons. These will be exceeded later in 2009 upon the release of of the Royal Caribbean International's Oasis of the Seas, which is listed to be 220,000 gross tons. Henry Klein

What did the RMS Titanic used to move?

The RMS Titanic served only as a passenger liner. The ship was built intended for use as a luxury oceanliner, for passenger use, only. It was the largest luxury liner, ever built at the time of her maiden voyage (first and last). RMS Titantic's sister ship, HMHS Britannic, was built and intended to serve as a transatlantic passenger liner. Shortly before the start of WWI, Britannic was put to use as a hospital ship. In November of 1916, she struck a mine off one of the Greek Islands, and sank with a loss of 30 lives, all crew members of the ship. RMS Titantic's older sister ship, RMS Olympic was also built as a Passenger Oceanliner. During the Olympic's lengthy time in service, she served extensively as a troopship during WWI, and later went on to serve as a transatlantic passenger liner. The RMS Titanic only moved passengers and their belongings, her sister ship HMHS Britannic, intended for the movement of passengers, served only as a hospital ship. Titantic's other sister ship, RMS Olympic served as a troopship, and passenger liner. As a troopship (and passenger liner), the Olympic moved military troops, and passengers. All 3 ships, only moved people, and did not serve as cargo liners.

How do you join a passenger ship in Monte Carlo?

Joining a passenger ship in Monte Carlo is an exercise in logistics. Insure you have passage and that it is confirmed. With your passport in your pocked and your bags in hand, get to Monte Carlo and follow the directions you should have been given to meet the vessel at a dock. It might be that you'll have to catch a launch to board, but all of this will be laid out by the individual connecting you with the ship. This individual should be reputable, of course.

Why was the titanic important to history?

The wreck of the Titanic remains the largest single passenger ship disaster of all time; thousands of people were killed, including many wealthy Americans, some of whom were never recovered from the wreakage. The Titanic tragedy is also a powerful symbol of human arrogance, since the ship was said to be "unsinkable." However, The Titanic sank on its maiden voyage, a victim of a "perfect storm" of human errors: flaws in the execution of its construction, the thoughtless actions of its chief radio operator, and the crew's and passengers' mistaken belief that the ship was indestructable.
