Shipboard Activities

An Atlantic crossing took 3-4 days. Passengers could engage in a number of activities both on deck and inside to pass the time during the voyage.

Deck Activities

Golf Lessons

Games were modified to accommodate the small available space and windy conditions on deck.

Afternoon tea could be had on deck

Shuffleboard was a standard offering

There was plenty of room on deck to enjoy the sunshine

But it could be cold on deck

Children had their own playroom to enjoy and network with other passengers

There were late buffets for the night owls

Meals were a big part of time onboard the ship

And it was an incredible honor to be hosted at the captain’s table

First and Cabin class passengers had access to a theater that seated 350 people
