'first-class area on ship' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'ascend look all over the place' is the wordplay.
'all over the place' indicates anagramming the letters.
'ascend'+'look'='ascendlook'
'ascendlook' with letters rearranged gives 'SALOON-DECK'.
