The crew quarters on the upper deck are primarily double occupancy with a shared fresher, the only private one being the spacious one connected to the captain's quarters. The crew fresher door does not lock but the stalls on the showers have individual ones for privacy. The galley is fully stocked for the production of many meals at once, both for servicing the crew and where meals are prepared for delivery to the passengers below.<br/><br/>The medic's quarters are a full stateroom although it is slightly more annoying to get in and out of than a normal one due to the airlock it is connected to requiring the heavier duty hatch there. The medbay and medic's quarters are isolated to allow both to be open for access to passengers when on duty with the hatch leading down below and are able to be sealed to isolate the crew and passengers through computer control as needed. The airlock itself is over the wing of the craft, primarily used either for access to the top of the ship by crew on planet or as a connection point for passengers to board or leave at a spacedock.<br/><br/>The primary crew airlock is near the bridge and space locker and a ladder can be extended to the ground below when the ship is landed. The air/raft bay is cramped but is big enough for crew to enter the small area directly into the air raft and trigger the airlock cycle to seal it from the ship and open the pay above to let the lift raise the craft up for departure. There are 4 escape pods for the crew on the upper deck, each ejecting up and out of the ship with manual latches in case of power loss.<br/><br/>The probe storage is full of the heavy drones and probes, each ready to be moved into the launch area to shoot off as needed. The launch goes upwards on the ship so they are usually only launched from orbit down towards a planet in the case of probe drones or used to mine asteroids in the case of the mining drones. For on planet use of the drones they need to be manually transported or moved out through an airlock in a far more tedious process.<br/><br/>Two hard points connecting to the turrets are accessible from the upper deck, one near the bridge and the other near the power and maneuver drive room. There is an access hatch in the power room to lead down below for the engineer to have access to the drives below as well as access to the last hard point on the ship as seen below<br/><br/>(https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/8/86/Frontier-LowerDeck.png)<br/><br/>The lower deck is primarily meant for passengers and cargo. The engine room on the lower deck contains the jump drive and is only accessible through the hatch above to keep it isolated from passengers. There is also access to an escape pod and the third hard point from the jump room.<br/><br/>The passenger area connects to the airlock above to keep access to medical when needed and each stateroom contains it's own small fresher in addition to the bed. The beds can be moved easily when needed to provide access to a manual lock beneath where there is an escape pod in each stateroom.<br/><br/>In the hall outside there is storage for linens and other sundries as needed as well as a common area for entertainment or eating if a passenger wishes to eat outside their room. Access to the cargo bay is restricted with an computer controlled airlock hatch to restrict passenger access, ensure they are safe in case of a cargo bay breech, and for easy controlled access by a steward in case one needs to get things from the bay during transit.<br/><br/>The cargo bay contains access to one escape pod for emergencies and the cargo bay ramp can be extended down for ingress or egress of cargo and passengers. On planet the cargo bay is usually used for both although for those wishing to keep passengers completely away from the cargo bay securing a ladder to the wing and leading them to the airlock above heading to medical is the most secure route and often one used if passengers need medical vetting before being allowed access to the stateroom areas.
