Yeah, it was right around the time of the movie when cruiselines started designing ships with several decks of balcony cabins. I just can't see a ship of the Titanic's size and lack of balconies being a good sell. By the way, for comparison's sake, here is an image showing the Titanic beside the current largest cruise ship, the Oasis of the Seas.
