The estimated cost for Titanic II is over 500 Million dollars. The good news is that unlike the Titanic that set sail in 1912, Titanic II will have more than enough lifeboats, they'll make sure the hull is welded and not riveted, and most importantly there will be modern navigation that will avoid huge icebergs. Titanic II is expected to set sail following the original journey from Southampton to New York. There are also plans for Titanic II to travel all around the world. The maiden voyage is from Dubai to New York, according to  CruiseArabia, and it's already scheduled for 2022.
