Contrary to James Cameron's abominable film, boat allocation on the Titanic was quite fair. One's odds of survival were better in First Class, but this was likely due to First Class passengers being closer to the life boats. Notably, women & children had a markedly better chance of surviving than men, despite not being notably 'privileged' in early 20th century society.
