Westerdam GG cabin

[NoWhiners]

Hi All

 

I know this is a fully obstructed OV cabin but does anyone know what the obstruction is or how this affects the amount of light in the cabin? We booked this for a 2011 panama canal cruise (a guarantee) and were just wondering what this means.

 

Thanks for any help

It will either be a lifeboat or a tender/lifeboat. Look on the deck plans. Cabins 4093 to 4100 are next to tenders that are taller than the lifeboats forward of the glass elevators. Those will block a bit more of the light than the lifeboats, but nothing serious.

Those cabins have wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows. There's a lot of light that comes in. It's not like the usual picture windows with a lifeboat in front would be.

Thanks for the comments. I looked at deck plans and thought the obstruction was the lifeboats but still wasn't sure so this was helpful.

 

Ruth--I was hoping you would be online--you are the queen of cabins!!

 

I am fine with the guarantee cabin and I love the idea of a glass wall. Like a balcony cabin with no sliding door! In this climate, I am OK with that. I think we will end up in one of these (no upgrade) so I am very happy!! I just can't figure out why this cruise is selling so well this far in advance...??

 

Thanks again. Good cruising,

ML

Queen of cabins? Oh, thanks, but I don't think so. Down where I bunk it's more like "Lady in Waiting".

I am SO looking forward to the Canal...

 

Thanks for your help and insights,
