xrayjon Posted February 28, 2005 #1 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Hi everyone! I just booked a cruise w/ cabin 8068, and although I know it's an obstructed B6 category, I was wondering how bad a view it really is. From the deck diagram, it looks like it has a view between 2 lifeboats, so that it might not be too bad. Can anyone give me any details about this cabin?? Thanks!!

Chuck & Phyllis Posted February 28, 2005 #2 Share Posted February 28, 2005 I have a few pictures of it that I borrowed from someones gallery. What's your email? I'll send them to you. They appear to be very, very obstructed.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbr47 Posted March 1, 2005 #4 Share Posted March 1, 2005 Hi everyone!

From the deck diagram, it looks like it has a view between 2 lifeboats, so that it might not be too bad. Can anyone give me any details about this cabin?? Thanks!! We cruised on the QM II 2/19-26 so things are still fresh in our minds. My in-laws had balcony stateroom no. 8022 and our friends had balcony stateroom no. 8057 - both obstructed views. But yes, indeed, you can see fine between the two lifeboats. The rooms were delightful - nice size, very bright and made us very jealous. Cunard would not allow our family of 4 to book a balcony room. They said the maximum capacity is 3, even though 2 of our family members are under 12 years old. The balcony rooms have a Queen size bed and a sofabed. I believe you'll enjoy your balcony stateroom, and your balcony as well. You'll love the cruise and the beautiful ship. :) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK Geoff Posted March 1, 2005 #5 Share Posted March 1, 2005 I've been upgraded from an inside atrium to Cabin 8088. The obstructed view is measured at 100% on the correspondance sent, but as I view it, if you take out New York harbour, what is there to see on a 6 Day Transatlantic in October, other than cold, grey sea? Added to that, the cabin size is much bigger. Anyway, I'll be sat in the casino / bar / theatre most of the time :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sailsalot Posted March 1, 2005 #6 Share Posted March 1, 2005 Thanks everyone for your replies. It will be the first time to cruise w/ a balcony, so while the view might not be perfect, I'm looking forward to the extra space and brightness. UK Geoff, have a great time on your cruise.

That would be my advise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aingeal Posted March 5, 2005 #8 Share Posted March 5, 2005 I was on the Nov 6th sailing & had cabin 8065. The view is not great, but being on deck 8 has it's advantages & is very conviently located to most areas of the ship. We were only right around the corner from the elevator ( which you do not hear at all) & the stairwell to deck 7 which leads right to the Kings Court & the Wintergarden. Also on deck 8 is Todd English & the Library which has spectacular views. So the down side is no great view from your balcony, just go down one flight of stairs to deck 7 and go out on the promenade deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
