MOTB Posted May 28, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Thinking of booking an outside cabin. We can have a window, possibly obstructed with no sofa, or a cabin with a sofa but a porthole - they look pretty small. How big are they please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KS&JW Posted May 28, 2018 #2 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Go with the porthole cabin. The obstructed cabins are much smaller and really too small for two people, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanandJim Posted May 29, 2018 #5 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Around 12”x12” I believe that because the portholes may be required to provide egress for a fully grown adult in the event of an emergency their minimum size on a Passenger Ship is 400mm or 15.748 inches across. If that does not give you pause at the buffet line, nothing ever will ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that were the case I would hope to make it down the hall to the crew exit even a small child could not get out that porthole :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betcha 90% of the PAX who chow down at the buffet would get stuck in the porthole. Ever notice that those kind of people load up , overflowing their plates as if they were having their last meal? ;p;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
