No you cannot just walk into the bridge for security reasons. But on some ships there is an area behind the bridge where you can view it. I have seen these view areas on Royal Caribbean Voyager Class ships and on the new NCL Gem. And, if you are a member of ship's cruise club and at the top level you can get special escorted tours of the bridge. On our last cruise just a few weeks ago one could who are Diamond-Plus members of the Royal Caribbean Crown and Anchor Society (frequent cruiser club) DID get a personal tour and were actually on the bridge when one of the ship's engines quit. So if you are a special guest on a cruise you can get a private tour.

Several years ago in my early days of cruising I did have a bridge tour. But that was well before 9/11. Things have changed much now!!

probably for the same reason, you're not allowed to hang out with the pilots in the cockpit on a commercial airline.

As said before, you can't go on the bridge for security reasons. However some companies will let you, if you ask at reception they may indicate you to write a letter to the captain - this can be handed in at reception. Then it is up to the captain to decide whether to let you go on the bridge or not.


Johan from Sweden
Its for securite reasons and there is a lots of articles aboard a cruise ship that can be very lethal (sharp cocking knives for example). But basicly its the same as why you cant visit a airplane cockpit as stated above.

If you ask me I think its a shame. There should be tours (passengers could get through the screening devices as used when you entry the ship) when the ship is in port. Johan.

Because it takes a DECK OFFICER'S LICENSE to be on the bridge of a ship and YOU DON'T HAVE ONE. I NEVER have a problem getting onto the bridge of a ship.. all I have to do is present my DECK OFFICER'S LICENSE and they let me visit the bridge if I so wish.
