The A-Deck Promenade (otherwise known as the Enclosed First Class Promenade) was a First Class area on A-Deck. It ran almost the full length of the ship. The Promenade is accessible via the Grand Staircase or the Aft Grand Staircase or through a stairway leading down from the Officers' Promenade on the Boat Deck. The Forecastle Deck and Cargo Hold can be reached by descending the stairs at the far front of the promenade.
The Promenade deck is inaccessible during the sinking, appearing in total darkness as if all of its lights had been switched off. This is historically inaccurate, as during the sinking the promenade deck was rife with activity, and some boats were even loaded from here rather than the Boat Deck.
