What does this sign mean?

I was recently touring Carnival Splendor and could not for the life of me figure what this sign means. It's all over the hallways. Any idea?

Zombie attack from all sides on families wearing black and white... escape to the left?

I dunno know. Maybe something about Long Haired Freaky People need not apply.

I agree it refers to directing everyone to their Muster Station. Gloria

Definitely a sign directing people to a muster station.

Looks like a family meeting location in the event someone in your party gets separated from the group. It doesn't imply "women and children" first to me, as there is a man in the photo. I think it is to be used like "If we get separated and you can't find us, meet us at the family meeting location on deck 12". It also could be a sign for a muster station.

That makes sense! Wow, think you just solved this mystery. Thanks @holleyb3! Happy

Btw, interesting article in Wikipedia about how this originated - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_and_children_first

This is a logo owned by International Maritime Organization for Women and children first (saying). In regards to the Muster stations.
