"code oscar", "code phoenix" - any others?

[gingernut9999]

If 'code oscar' means man overboard, and 'code phoenix' means there's a fire, are there any other 'codes'? and what do they mean?

[LARGIN]

Yes.. "Code Bubba" means that the lobster eating record has just been broken.. :rolleyes:

[mii]

Largin: Where do you come up with these things. I must admit it made me laugh. LOL;)

Are there any other 'codes'? and what do they mean?

Well, there's the Morse Code, no longer used on ships.

I believe that "Code Bubba" actually means that someone has shown up in the dining room wearing jeans.

I always hoped the code "Oscar" would be followed by Code "Meyer" ......

 

..................cause if I were an Oscar Meyer Weiner everyone would be in love with me. !!!!

[CaptData]

They announced a code something last year when we were on the Miracle and when they said the stateroom #, I said to hubby "that is the room next to us" we were in our stateroom at the time getting ready for dinner.

 

We left our room around 5-10 minutes later and when we did we saw medicial personal with a stretcher going into the next stateroom-we stopped to get out of their way - those hallways as you know aren't exactly very wide. One of the personal was very short with us and said "please move along" as though we were being nosy. That irritated me a bit as I was just trying to be polite and stay out of their way-but we left when she said that- squeezing around the stretcher the best we could.

 

I have no idea what happened but I know that the people in that room were traveling with the party in a stateroom across the hall from them. We saw them going back and forth visiting with each other after that-so we assumed everything was okay. After the way the medical personnel acted I was not going to ask.

We used code Red for a fire in the hospital, guess that may be the same. I guess it could also be used for sunburn.

[kryos]

code 99/blue heart attack.:eek:

I think on HAL, it's "bright star" ... means a passenger is "down" and summons medical help to the area.

 

Blue skies ...

One hospital pages "Dr. Duncan" when the donut wagon arrives. (True story.)

[midnightsun]

Then there's Code Dependent - that's when someone falls off their 12-step program... :)

On Cunard it was "starlight" as in "starlight, Queens Grill" meaning medical emergency.
