Debitoo Posted August 7, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Is there a secret aft stairway on the Jewel like there is on the Rhapsody? That was really convenient! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrusinNana Posted August 7, 2018 #2 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Yes, I think it’s aft starboard side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONECRUISER Posted August 7, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Yes, I think it’s aft starboard side. Where is this, Deck #? Not talking about the Emergency/Employee stairs are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debitoo Posted August 7, 2018 Author #4 Share Posted August 7, 2018 On Rhapsody deck 8 we had aft cabin 8596. Right around the corner from that cabin is a stairway that takes you up to the spa area. It was a GREAT shortcut. Just wondering if maybe the Jewel had the same stairway. Probably not.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouhunter Posted August 7, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 7, 2018 No idea, but Jewel and Rhapsody aren't the same class of ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Jewel, there are stairways aft, but the are crew stairs that can be used by passengers in an emergency. There is a stairway between the aft outdoor section of the WJ that goes to the deck above which is for passengers, but that doesn't go down to the cabin level.

I didn't see any "Crew only" signs on the one on the Rhapsody. We used it multiple time daily No one ever said anything. It was very convenient for grabbing a snack or drink from the cafe and taking it back to the cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have sailed all the other classes but haven't tried that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vickiw0318 Posted August 7, 2018 #14 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Those two stairways on the Rhapsody and the Vision are unique so far as I know. I am one of those crazy aft cabin lovers and I have not seen anything like them on any other class of ship. I don't think that the other two (initial) sets of Vision Class twins had anything like them either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe at least one other Vision class ship has them, because I remember it being on the opposite side as Vision. Might have been Legend.

racerxspeedy Posted August 8, 2018 #16 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Have sailed Jewel and Brilliance Aft deck 8 and 9. There is a crew stairway (port side aft?). The door was propped open one day and I walked up one flight to check it out. Not a shortcut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pencruise Posted August 8, 2018 #19 Share Posted August 8, 2018 Is there a secret aft stairway on the Jewel like there is on the Rhapsody? That was really convenient! We are on the Jewel at the moment in JS 1100 on the aft, and no, there is no secret stairway on either side of the ship like there is on Rhapsody.

Saab4444 Posted August 8, 2018 #20 Share Posted August 8, 2018 That is also because Vision class have been built different from all newer ship classes on the upper decks with food in the front (Windjammer) and fitness center / spa in the back. As this is on more than one level they needed stairs in the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
