    A first class ticket on the Titanic would set ya back $57,000. A posher room would cost $103,000.

    Jack meanwhile won the equivalent of 900 bucks with his ticket.

    So AH. Do you love Michael O'Leary now?

    You got the racing results, daily grub, stock prices and society gossip included for the price. Who needs wi-fi?

    If they had Wi-Fi they could have spotted the iceberg on Google maps. Keep your stock prices I say.

    Really?

    You can travel New York to Southampton on a Queen Mary Cunard in the biggest suite for £12,000 each. It is over two floors! Looks like the old money was ripped off.
