Why Deck 6 interiors are the crew's first choice for family

Entertainment staff, Harmony. When crew members get to bring family aboard (it happens occasionally on repositioning cruises), we almost always request Deck 6 interiors. The reason is threefold. First, Deck 6 is the most stable deck in rough seas — minimal pitch and roll. Second, the interior cabins in the 6200 block are set back from the main corridor in a small alcove, which means virtually no foot traffic noise. Third, and this is the real insider knowledge: Deck 6 is directly connected to the crew service corridors, which means if anything goes wrong — plumbing, electrical, AC — maintenance can reach those cabins in under three minutes. Response time to Deck 14 can be twenty minutes. Deck 6 gets fixed first. Always.
