please explain room categories..

[Juliah67]

I don't understand what the different categories mean. Like..what is a 4C, 8A, etc? Thanks, juliah

 

Glory Eastern 5/29/04

Cat 1 is an inside cabin, sometimes with one upper bed

 

Cat 4 is an inside cabin

 

Cat 6 is an ocean view

 

Cat 8 is a balcony cabin

 

Cat's 11 and 12 are suites.

 

The A B C D etc...signify what deck you are on. A would be the lowest deck that has cabins of that category, B the next deck up, C the next deck up etc.

 

Make sense?

Alaska via Spirit 6/2/04

[DeckCadet]

Cat. 5 is an OV with a weird window type. Depends on the ship if memory serves

 

Cat. 9 is sort of an expensive regular cabin. Much larger, not a suite and lacks the perks. on destiny and conquest class ships this category includes the aft wraparound cabins

Juliah , The best way that I can say this is they are all great. Just that Different folks have different agendas. Hard to get everyone together. My advise, keep yoour wonderful attitude up, Good things will come your way.

[Cotton]

The 'weird window type' DeckCadet is talking about is ... a porthole.

I was just got some prices from AAA and certain weeks in the year they do double category upgrades...Cat 8a to 8C does that mean 2 decks up?
