Icon of the Seas vs RMS Titanic: Size Comparison
The Icon of the Seas is about 1.4× the size of the RMS Titanic: it measures 365 m (1,197 ft) long, while the RMS Titanic is 269 m (883 ft) long.
In 1912 the Titanic was the largest moving object humans had ever built. Today she wouldn't crack the top 100: Icon of the Seas is a third longer, twice as wide, rises far higher above the water, and carries about 5.4 times Titanic's gross tonnage. Docked side by side, the legend of 1912 looks like a tender boat.
