A deck refers to one of several levels of a starship or similar vessel.

Aboard Earth starships, decks were usually named alphabetically; A-deck would be on top, B-deck right below it, etc.

By the 23rd century, Federation starships seem to have adopted another system, as the upper level was referred to as deck 1. Deck numbers then increased for each deck below, the lowest level having the highest number.
