Cruise Arizona Posted December 11, 2005 #1 Share Posted December 11, 2005 Hey everyone, I'm just back from the Infinity. It was absolutely fabulous. We just booked the Mercury for next year Thanksgiving with the kids. We were!!!! able to book a Family Ocean View or FO cabin for the four of us and I am thrilled because the only other cabins that would accomodate 4 were a sky suite with a roll away and some of the quad cabins on the lower two passengers decks. I've found some webshots of some of the interior FO cabins, but I'm having trouble confirming that the corner rooms, we are in 8259 has two sets of windows, I believe it does, but I am looking for confirmation. Happy cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mahdnc Posted December 11, 2005 #2 Share Posted December 11, 2005 I do not believe that the corner FOs have 2 sets of windows (presumably the other window would be on the side wall facing out the side of the ship?). We were in an FO type cabin (8231) on board Century and it did not have a 2nd window although admittedly the aft design is slightly different than Mercury. When we were in Mercury FO 1152, I recall that there were not extra windows on the corner FOs up on that deck (Deck 10, Penthouse). But as far as the Deck 8 FO's I cannot really remember. And yes, you are right--getting an FO for 4 people is terrific compared to the other alternatives (space-wise and money-wise). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashdog_1 Posted December 11, 2005 #3 Share Posted December 11, 2005 has anyone been able to book the FO (I think they call them OS on Celebrity's website) aft with only two people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashdog_1 Posted December 11, 2005 #4 Share Posted December 11, 2005 has anyone been able to book the FO (I think they call them OS on Celebrity's website) aft with only two people? It's one month to sailing if that makes any difference. They still have about 7 of them available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ma Bell Posted December 11, 2005 #5 Share Posted December 11, 2005 Yes, Phyllis, especially after final payments have been made. You should have no problem booking one now.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise Arizona Posted December 11, 2005 Author #6 Share Posted December 11, 2005 I thought about trying to upgrade to a FV on the infinity when I saw some available a month before sailing. Decided not to do a paid upgrade, but you should be able to book them or upgrade to them in the 30 day window as long as they are available.

morriscats Posted December 11, 2005 #7 Share Posted December 11, 2005 For our Infinity cruise to Hawaii in October (has it been that long now) we had stateroom 7171 and just happened to check about a month before we sailed and FV 7202 was available. We did upgrade and it was an amazing time. The balcony was so big and the room also. Would we do it again? Not sure as it was very pricey but for our dream trip to Hawaii, it was perfect. Just the 2 of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashdog_1 Posted December 11, 2005 #8 Share Posted December 11, 2005 Thanks for the head up about final payments having been made, so can get the FO for two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
