I don’t think the e-muster should take the blame. We had all been to the correct assembly station on embarkation day, in person, but that was about a week ago and, as I said, it was St. Patrick’s Day.
Three things would have helped that come to mind immediately. One would be that if the deck was listed on the SeaPass card as well as the assembly station it would have made it easier.
Another would have been to remind people in the announcements which Deck to go to. For instance and this is not the correct listing I know, I’m just using it as an example, an announcement like this would have helped “Right now All guests are required to visit their assembly station. If your assembly station is A B or C go to deck 4, if it is DE or F go to deck five”
Another thing that would have helped on this particular ship because of the odd traffic pattern on deck five where you either have to go through bionic bar or Izumi to get from one end of the ship to the other would be to have one-way traffic through those areas.
