Room 8357 Cat 1A on the Freedom. Or any Conquest Class ship

[coachj]

6393 is near a steward station pantry and the laundry room is a bit further down. I heard nothing from either room except one time i heard ice dropping from the ice machine. It was a quiet cabin at night and even when i took my power naps in the afternoon. I have already booked it again on the Freedom next year. It is ideally located right in the middle of the ship.

Thanks Coachj!! I really appreciate the input! Both of my previous cruises I stayed in the 1A cabins. I really like them, and I like the price too. :D

8357 has an upper and a lower twin bed.

Here's a picture of 6393 on the Conquest. Two twin beds.

I booked 8357 for my kids on our upcoming Liberty cruise. I was told by the pvp that it is a smaller room with an upper/lower bunk. The room is right across from our balcony room. Hope this helps.

What am I missing. On the Carnival Website 8357 on the Freedom is showing as a 4E not a 1A.

Yep, Freedom its not a 1A, but on Conquest it is.

Okay, I just wasn't clear if the OP was asking about the Freedom specifically or not.

[tim5811]

The room is listed as a 1A. I am taking the Freedom. 8357. Only 1A on the floor. Hey... I am rooting for it to have 2 double beds.

[coachj]

Cabin 8357 is a mystery to the Carnival website also. Only on the Freedom is it marked as a 4E but all other ships of that class it is a 1A. Even Orbitz has it listed as a 1A on Freedom. And I believe I have seen it available as a 1A on Freedom sailings on the Carnival website.

[coachj]

I was right . I researched certain sailngs in late 2010 and it is offered as a 1A cabin. I will check out how many beds on Sunday and report back.

Did a couple mock bookings and 8357 did come up as an available 1A on the Glory and the Freedom even though the color on the deck plans no longer indicates these cabins as 1A.

 

The other thing that is interesting is that the 1A "key" is shown on the Verandah Deck and if there are no cabins on a deck the key usually doesn't show.

 

I wonder if Carnival is going to be changing all the 1A's that are not upper/lower only to a higher category. :eek:

 

As DGP111 indicated in a prior post they have changed 2462/2465 from 1A to 6B O/V. That's a big change.

Great!! You'll have to let me know how it is. btw I'm about 2 hrs south of STL in Herrin, Ill. If you know where Carbondale is, I'm only 15 min away from there.

Lets not give them any more ideas how to get more money from us. The 1As are the last bargain on Carnival as it is :(

KMBB - was just reading posts and read that you were 10 mins from St. Louis - well, me too! West of St. louis that is!

lol, just tell us if it had two twins!!! hahhahahahaha :D

[coachj]

Just got back from the Freedom. All 3 of those central cabins, 6393, 7345 and 8357 have 2 twin beds made up as a king. No room for the ladder to the bunk above.

[KMBB]

Ok everyone, room 8357, has 2 twin beds made into a king or queen(whatever the 2 of them togethor make) This room is great. I don't believe they can be separated, because of the space of the room. There might also be a upper bed, but that can not be used because of the way the queen bed is. I have pictures, but I can not post them, would be glad to make copies and mail them to anyone who would like to see them. Then maybe one of you can post them to let everyone see them.

I loved the room, very good location, no noise from anywhere. Any more questions let me know, kmbb

 

Firefly--are you here??? Yes queen/king beds in this room.

[tim5811]

KMBB.... is it a fact that there is not 2 single beds (seperate) in this room??? Cause I am going with another guy, and there's no way we are sharing! ha ha ha. no freakn' way! Do you mind posting the pics?

[firefly333]

Sure email me the pics of the cabin and I will upload them to photobucket and post them here.

 

You can also attach them here as thumbnails, click on advanced and scroll down to manage attachments. click on that and browse until you find them on your computer and click to upload and they will show here as thumbnails which can be clicked on to enlarge.

 

My email is in my profile. Anyone can email me whenver they want.

I will have 6393 which I hoped would be two separate twins not one big bed too. bigduck said he had the twins pushed together which made me think they could be separated. Im cruising with my sister, so I also dont really want to sleep in the same bed with her.

 

(we could have had port holes on rivieria deck and picked 6393 figuring mid deck, higher deck would be more convenient). Now the category is sold out.

[michigyrl]

There were some posts asking about the laundry room. We were right next to one (room 7345 on Valor) and we never noticed any noise at all coming from the room. It was not an issue for us!

[KMBB]

Tim5811---Sorry to say, but I really don't think you can move the beds apart. If you separate them, the one bed would be up against the desk/drawers and you could not use them. It would make it very tight in between the beds also. Does make any sence???? I am sorry, but I can not post pictures, I am not very good at this computor stuff, just don't get it---at all!!!!!

 

Firefly---can't e-mail you pictures, don't know how, could send them in the mail to you, if you provide a address.

 

Anyway, this is a nice room, don't think you can separate the beds. They are 2 twins put togethor and they make a very large bed, but to separate them, I don't see that working out. Any more questions, just let me know, kmbb
