Classes of the RMS Titanic One hundred and two years ago one of the most remembered tragedies in history took place; the unsinkable sank. The Titanic sank in the Atlantic on April 15, 1912. Thousands of people lost their lives, including women, children, infants and high-profile individuals. Seven hundred and six people out of two thousand two hundred and twenty-eight went down with the ship. The individuals in the first class were the first to be rescued and the ones most likely to survive. The third class individuals were the last to be rescued and had the fewest survivors. The Titanic was divided into three classes: first class, the privileged passengers, second class, the middle class, and third class, the poor passengers. The passengers aboard first class had a very luxurious trip. The people in first class were the wealthy group with the best dinners, decks and suites. The people you would see in first class included politicians, businessmen, bankers, professional athletes, industrialists, and high-ranking military personnel ("Life in First Class on the Titanic"). Some of the most notable people sailed first class, including John Jacob Astor, Molly Brown, Sir Cosmo, Isador and Ida Strauss ("Titanic Passengers-First Class"). The meals available for first class were similar to those of Bruce 2feast, perhaps even more so. Dinner was a ten-course meal ranging from oysters to lamb. First class ate in the first class lounge; they could also eat at the Café Parisien. Their meals had to be paid for out of their own pockets; food was not included in the ticket.

Passengers aboard the Titanic received varying amounts of luxury depending on their role in the world. The richest were saved first, while almost none of the poor survived today, and they will most likely say of having lived a first-class life. The sinking of the Titanic was a terrible tragedy and could have been prevented in many ways, including how people were saved important.
