The British Inquiry Report noted that the Titanic was in compliance with the American immigration law in force at the time - and that allegations that third class passengers were locked below decks were false.
Around 285 second class passengers were on board. Around 118 second class passengers survived. Second class accommodation was over 7 decks. There was a second class dining room which could accomodate over 2000 people.
First-Class TicketsThe average cost of a first-class ticket to board the Titanic was about $400 ($5,000 in today's money). There were two first-class rooms on the Titanic that cost $3,300 each (more than a brand new car back then).
60 men survived from Third Class and only 58 survived from First Class. However, this is unsurprising given that there were 450 men in Third Class and only 176 men in First Class. The actual survival rate is therefore considerably higher for First Class men, at 33%, than Third Class men, only 13% of whom survived.
