KruisingKaren Posted November 14, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 14, 2023 I'm trying to interpret the deck plan for deck 6 on Zaandam. Two questions... is the aft deck area available via stairs from decks above and below it? Also, I can't tell if there are doors leading from the corridor to aft deck. They show a solid line so I'm not sure if there are doors. We're considering cabin B6223 for an Alaska cruise in June 2024 hoping that the aft deck won't be too busy with other passengers. Any insight would be appreciated! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Pete Cruiser Posted November 14, 2023 #2 Share Posted November 14, 2023 We are booked on the Zaandam Dec 19 to Jan 4. I haven't been on Zaandam since 2016, but I liked the open deck back there, something newer ships never have. There are stairs from the promenade deck all the way up to the Lido deck. I think there are access doors onto that rear deck area. Maybe someone who is onboard or with more recent onboard memories will give you more information.

ShipsAreTheBest Posted November 14, 2023 #3 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Yes there is access from above and the end of both corridors have doors that go out into this area. It’s kind of hidden and doesn’t get a lot of use because most people don’t think to go there so it stays quiet. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The access points at each end came in very handy. The forward one was a great viewing spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Crew News Posted November 14, 2023 #5 Share Posted November 14, 2023 The doors to the Deck 6 aft deck were marked "Emergency Exit" which is their secondary use. They provide access to the aft deck which is a photographer's dream with few people and can see both sides of the ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
