Re: the pool


You just answered your own question.

FIRST CLASS POOL.

So yeah, only the first-class people could use it. Both men and women, I believe. But at different times.

Re: the pool


I wonder if later on in Olympic’s career other passengers could have a turn in the pool.

Re: the pool


I should think so, Tom...especially since during both WWI & II, she was turned into a troops-carrying liner. Surely our troops may have used that pool sometime during their crossings.

Re: the pool


I think I read somewhere that other passengers could have a short turn in the pool later in her career.

Re: the pool


Second class were not allowed to enter first class areas, although before Titanic left at least some passengers were given a tour of first class.

I do think that I read somewhere that second class passengers were allowed in the pool at certain times (not with first class) but that might have just been Olympic later on and I have no idea how accurate that source is.
