The 1,600 passenger Titanic II was scheduled to be built by 2018 by Australian billionaire Clive Palmer. The ship would be a replica of the Titanic but the project has yet to get off the ground.
While Carnival Corporation recently annoucned an order for 9 cruise ships, they have yet to release which cruise lines several of them will be built for. Once an announcement is made, we will update each cruise line’s order to reflect the announcement.
