I already forgot that they were going to get the First Class tour. It's too bad you cant take them through the network of magazines forward, down the vertical trunk. (I used to take my lunch breaks in the powder magazine, sleeping in the large brass sliding trays. The space was always cool, even when the ship was in drydock).
We'd see if the guy really quit smoking, by how much air he was sucking.
We were working on an LHA long ago, lower level main machinery space. Behind the boiler was the escape trunk, about 5 levels straight up to the hangar deck level. We decided it was quicker this way so we started climbing. About half way up his asbestosis and cigar smoking kicked in and he couldn't climb any more and was hanging on. I was concerned for him, but I was more concerned since he was on the ladder above me and if he fell, he'd hit me on the way down. I managed to crawl around him.
