I agree with MGY Friend,
I have also seen a drawing of what the proposed Grand Staricase for the Britannic would have looked like.
I have to say that it does look rather oppulent, and the balustrade looks different to that which was on both the Olympic and Titanic.

I also agree that it would have been nice to have seen her in her White Star colours. If the Titanic tragedy and the First World War had never had happened, I think that it would have been lovely to see all three of the sister ships together.

yeah it would of been cool did you know there was an Organ at the landing of the Grand staircase?(britanic) It was more luxurious than the Titanic, but the Titanic was slightly larger than both her sister ships, I think the Titanic is best out of all of them, dont't you think its weird that all three of them sank?

The Olympic had promanade suites on B-deck also. They are EXACTALLY the same except the Titanic was slightly larger, and the A-deck promanade had window coverings as well.

Britannic is actually larger than Titanic, (more heavy and maybe a few feet wider) she is considered the largest liner on the ocean floor. Remember, Britannic had almost a complete double skin on her lower hull (not just a double bottom like Titanic, and she had higher water tight compartments. These were changes made early in her construction when her sister went down.

Are you sure the Olmpic had parlor suites? I thought this was an improvement the Titanic had because Ismay thought the Olympic had too much un-used deck space, I know for a fact that Titanic had more cabins or at least at first, maybe Olympic was renovated with more? Have to look that up.

Also, the Olympic did not sink. Only the Titanic in 1912 and the Britannic in 1916. The Olympic lead a long life and was finally scrapped a the shipyards in the late twenties, early thirties.

Olympic didn't sink. Olympic was scrapped in 1935.

I've seen the concept sketches of the pipe organ and the grand staircase, and I think that would've been awesome! Britannic was to be the best of the three. Unfortunately, World War 1 intervened, and Britannic's fate was altered. I must admit, the Britannic looked good in her hospitalship colors.

Also to titanicisawsome titanic was not slighly larger than both it was olympic (smallest )then titanic then olympic biggest and titanic was the most luxurious not brittanic

Quote:

Britannic never had a chance to be "possibly the most luxurious". She was put into service as a hospital ship during the first World War and never had her interiors installed.

We like to think that Titanic would still be the best, but remember, Ismay and the White Star Line aimed to make each new ship in the trio better than the last.

I'm surprised they scrapped the olympic since it had many similarities as titanic. I think it would be neat to tour the sister ship of the titanic. At least you'd get an idea of it's size etc.

Titanic was more Luxerious, Britannic, was supposed to be even more.. Even though it sunk before it had a paying customer.. Although I do admit I like to look at the outside of the Olympic more then Titanic.

It's like comparing milk white chocolate to dark, theres no tangiable reason why, just a preference, personal opinion. BRITANNIC QFT!!!! Hehe
