jules71 Posted January 15 #1 Share Posted January 15 To those of you who have had a Deck 7 aft with the larger balcony, on Jewel, it looks like there are stairs close by— are they for passengers? Is this a good cabin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabalab Posted January 15 #2 Share Posted January 15 (edited) If stairs are on the deck plan, I think it's safe to assume they are for passengers. My reasoning - there are crew elevators on the ship, but you won't see them on the deck plans. Edited January 15 by Nabalab 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those stairs are crew stairs and are not accessible to passengers. The deck plans also show stairs at the left/rear corner of the ship. Those too are for crew only. ETA - I can speak from experience about the ones at the left rear. We stayed in a corner aft once and the evacuation route says to use those stairs. Wanting to know my route in the event of an emergency, I took those stairs to the muster drill. I was told by a crew member that I passed in the stairwell that I was not allowed to use them unless it was an emergency.

Is this a good cabin? Aside from the stair issue, we love the corner aft cabins. The views are fantastic and it is very quiet because there is not much foot traffic in the hall. I can tell you though, the walk from the Centrum elevators/stairs to the aft cabins is about 300ft./100yds. If you have mobility issues, you may want to reconsider. We enjoy the walk, it helps burn some calories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobH5849 Posted January 16 #7 Share Posted January 16 We had Rm 7676 on a past Jewel cruise. It's a long walk to the elevators and stairs, but worth it. The room you are looking at has a very large balcony. Larger than the one we had aft. Friends of ours had a room near what you are looking ay and enjoyed it very much.
