cruzeluver Posted August 14, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 14, 2014 This came up in another thread so I thought I would ask. Is it possible to get out to the bow on Fantasy? Hardly a deal-breaker but we have done so on other ships and love it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tapi Posted August 14, 2014 #2 Share Posted August 14, 2014 (edited) Not on Fantasy class ships. Sorry. Btw, we did it last year on Holland America's Westerdam going into Glacier Bay in Alaska. Talk about AWESOME! I wish more ships were designed with full access to the bow.

FSRoberts Posted August 14, 2014 #3 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I remember reading that the issue is night time travel. They have to keep the area in front of the bridge dark so the duty officers keep good night vision. If it was a public passenger area, they would have to light it for safety.

MalleyCat Posted August 14, 2014 #4 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Our favorite spot on Fantasy Class ships is sitting on the windows in front of the mini golf course. It's dark, great for star watching and not overly populated. On the Fantasy this past May there were several people who brought pillows out to make the "seats" more comfortable.

SadieN Posted August 14, 2014 #5 Share Posted August 14, 2014 The Bow area is part of the crew deck area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnival_Brides Posted August 14, 2014 #6 Share Posted August 14, 2014 The Bow area is part of the crew deck area. The only way to the bow of the ship is through the crew bar and it is off limits unless you do Behind the Fun. It was interesting to see, though.

You can go up there at night on the Triumph, Conquest, Dream and Sunshine classes. It is a public passenger area and it must be kept dark but you can still go up there at night. It's really neat up there if there is a full moon. You can go one deck below the bridge and I think two more decks down. At the very bow of the ship is an area for crew only. There is a small hot tub and some deck chairs for them. During the day you'll see a few crew members out there sunning themselves.
