You mean on an airplane?
I always upgrade to business class when at the airport when I fly Airtran. It's $45.00 (when you do it at the airport) and well worth it. No crying babies, no rubbing shoulders and thighs with a row-mate, plenty of room in a wide seat.
If you don't mean on an airplane.......then ignore the above.

There really is no "first class" on a ship......
I guess you can go by the deck levels?

Don't diss the FAST!!
I don't think that is a raft, I think it is the emergency slide.

I read your post while at work, where most pics don't show up. The pic in your post, I didn't see. Now I see the pic and understand your question.
My answer stands.

Well, my family and I always go on crusies via Royal Carribean...
The number of lifeboats they have actually exceeds the number of people on the ship. They also have inflatable rafts for reserves, if you want to look at it that way....
Everytime you set sail, you need to conduct a tender drill. It's federal law. Each deck and room sections have a specific spot to report to incase of an emergency. So therefore, there is enough lifeboats for everyone

Thanks for the info :bigups. My wife and I are going to celebrate our 10th ANNIVERSARY in December :excited:. We are going on a cruise on the Royal Caribbean :rockon
Its good to know that there are more life boats then there are people :yay. Just a little something to ease our minds :hmmm:

Ex. Freedom Class, Voyager Class, Radiance Class?

Hello all - long time no post here! While there is technically no "first class" upgrade on cruise ships, there are two perks to upgrading when available. First, as noted earlier you get better cabin selection, which means better decks, better views, less screaming kids, etc....
Second, and no doubt the best benefit in my mind, you get priority disembarking - no cattle-call lines, luggage easy to find, off the boat & on your way before most even make it to land.
That pic is great Steve! I'm using that one - thanks

Most of the time the disembarking times are random.....We have been the first to get off early, and sometimes the last time to get off...
It all depends on your flight times out of the Port of Call.......
Being a Crown and Anchor member though, you do get to sit on deck 15 with free drinks while you wait.......
