Passenger Accommodations and Working Areas
The names used for the three classes of passenger services were adjusted after
World War II. For purposes of uniformity we frequently refer to them as
first, second and third class.
Also after World War II “C” deck was renamed “R” deck (for restaurant deck). Each of the lower decks was adjusted accordingly – a source of no little confusion to those studying deckplans from the various periods. The newer designations are retained on the ship today.
