Kevnzworld Posted December 12, 2012 #201 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I'm enjoying the thread. I don't agree with many of the design opinions, but they are informed and interesting. I never paid attention to the curve in the cabin before, I now understand its purpose. Say what you want, cruisetrail knows his stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjohn581 Posted December 12, 2012 #202 Share Posted December 12, 2012 This is an interesting thread especially since the first Celebrity ship I sailed on was the Eclipse last January. We enjoyed that cruise so much that we are sailing on the Reflection next month. Everyone has their own preferences and even though I may not agree with this OP, it is his opinion and the photos are great and brought back some good memories.

Clever design to maximise a limited space isn't it? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougsie Posted December 12, 2012 #204 Share Posted December 12, 2012 To the person (people? I don't remember if it was asked more than once) asking if these are Cruisetrail's own pictures, I believe many of them are not his originally, due to having seen them on other threads and pictoral reviews done by others in the past. (Also due to his failing to answer the question, but responding to other posts) It is quite the set of photos, though, and nice to have them all in one place.

cruisetrail Posted December 12, 2012 Author #205 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Do you mean the balcony cabins? Clever design to maximise a limited space isn't it? :) This idea is not new. This is a derivative of the "head-to-toe sleeping". Not a sign of luxury though. Answering your question. Yes, all photos are mine, of course (except for a couple of aerial views - possibly later in this thread). No, the agenda is not mine. Ask someone else. I did not see a connecting door inside 7107 neither in the "parents bedroom", nor in the "kids bedroom". There might be (?) an external "connection" with extra doors - similar to hump cabins. But I don't remember this particular detail about 7107. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisetrail Posted December 13, 2012 Author #209 Share Posted December 13, 2012 A necessary correction. There is a misprint in the Family Cabin number. One photo of 7107 has 7105 number on it that is a misprint. Obviously it's the same cabin on the photos. So I am reposting phtos of a Family Cabin (Deck 7) Sorry about the misprint!:) 7107 as it appears on Celebrity deck plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisetrail Posted December 13, 2012 Author #210 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Other cabins Celebrity Eclipse features 44 mini-suites (Sky Suites on Celebrity deck plans). There are 2 types of Sky Suites. The most numerous are category S2 - 24 cabins facing sides of the ship, and 6 cabin facing aft. These cabins are "one and a half window wide" - somewhat 50% wider than standard balcony cabins. Most of them are located on deck 12 right below the buffet. Ironically, these Sky Suites balconies (facing sides) are located under infamous Celebrity "overhang" of the upper deck, so there is actually no sky there. Huge overhang supports spoil the views. However, some people like this location. To be continued... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beejay4016 Posted December 13, 2012 #211 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Just a little question: how see-through are those screens between balconies? If a person - not this person, I hasten to add - was prone to being naked within the privacy of their room, including the balcony, can they be seen through the screen? :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its an illusion. Feel free (not you) to go naked but maybe not whilst in Port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

u2cruiser Posted December 13, 2012 #214 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I'm really enjoying this photo tour of Eclipse and it is nice to have these different cabin pics in one place. cruisetrail, I like how you acknowledged that some people like the location of the sky suites under the overhang. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BugsyCruiser Posted December 13, 2012 #215 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I'm enjoying the pictures as well as I will be on Solstice to Alaska at the end of May. I don't agree with the OP's position on the S class ships but to each their own. The pictures are giving me a good idea of what Solstice will be like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
