midwestchick Posted May 29, 2015 #52 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Midnight :eek: :eek: :mad: That's not good....not good at all! I would imagine it also sounds like a herd of elephants walking above you when the movie is finished. I'm sorry you had to give up your aft cabin. This is a problem X could easily remedy.

Rare ghstudio Posted June 6, 2015 #54 Share Posted June 6, 2015 (edited) Let me add one reality you need to know if you book a rear deck 11 cabins on the infinity....it's in my M-class cabin review for 1141 and I know it's true for 1138 as well as the other deck 11 cabins (rear facing or not), at least on that ship. In rough weather, the drawers of the nightstand and closet open and close (loudly) as the ship rocks...they don't have stops on them like most other cabins on the ship. No idea why they built them this way....but they slam open and closed as the ship rocks. I strongly suggest that you a roll of duct tape with you to tape them closed, if you hit rough weather....so you can sleep. Additionally, on the infinity (perhaps the other m-class ships), there is no way to lock the balcony door in place if it's open....it slides open and closed as the ship rocks. Some of the doors can be held in place by turning the handle to the locked position..but many, including 1141 don't work that way. If you sit outside, there is no handle so there is no way to fasten the door open OR closed...so it will slide and slam depending on the rocking. The recommended solution for this is to take a bungee cord (24") and use it to hold the door open (you can also use the belt of your bathrobe. As far as I know, there is no way to hold the door closed if you are outside on the balcony....unless you are in calm seas where it will just hold in place from friction. We love the cabins...just be prepared with bungee cord and duct tape. Edited June 6, 2015 by ghstudio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soraya Posted June 6, 2015 #55 Share Posted June 6, 2015 (edited) When I booked our Constellation cruise there were no aft cabins available and so I booked 9038. Then 1141 came available and my TA started a 'conversation' with Celebrity about moving - which I could if I wanted to pay loads more and lose the 123Go benefits. It eventually got sorted out when the 123Go promo came back this week, but only 1140 was available. I moved but was a bit concerned about the flag. Then I saw the info on movies- :eek: Edited June 6, 2015 by soraya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurab23 Posted June 8, 2015 #56 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Just back from my Summit cruise. We had cabin 1133. I could not hear any noise from the movies above and there were no smoke issues from the smokers below us. Had no problems with our drawers opening and could lock our balcony door from the inside. When we were on the balcony with rough seas the balcony door would slide open and close. Loved this cabin,very quiet. And so nice to be just steps away from the sunset bar.

soraya Posted June 8, 2015 #59 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Good to know that there wasn't too much disturbance from the movies. midwestchick- My TA was a bit surprised with their response - it wasn't what he was expecting! It did get sorted eventually not sure if that's normal but it's my first Celebrity cruise and I've noticed that each time we've made a request the answer has been no initially and then OK eventually. Was thinking of booking with them for Australia in 2017 but have decided to wait until our August cruise to decide just in case we aren't a good match:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jane2357 Posted June 8, 2015 #61 Share Posted June 8, 2015 We have 1138 booked for Alaska - May '16. We've had other aft / aft wrap cabins and love them - this will be our first time on deck 11. I've got my packing list with duct tape and bungee included. :D We originally had a Celebrity suite booked but the price difference wasn't acceptable once we found out that our accommodations on the 6 night post cruise tour were in no way upgraded. We decided to switch then to an aft cabin and saw that the A1 cabins were cheaper than the Concierge 1. It was a no brainer. We grabbed 1138 -- 1140 was already booked but I wanted the angled balcony of 1138 for the sweeping views. :D The pictures in the beginning of this thread have convinced me that we made the right choice. :D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soraya Posted June 8, 2015 #62 Share Posted June 8, 2015 I love aft cabins - we had one for the Norwegian fjords and it was great to have such wonderful views. Have been wanting to try Celebrity since the days of Michel Roux but the dates/intineraries never matched when we could go, so really looking forward to this Venice cruise.

colombiangirl Posted June 19, 2015 #63 Share Posted June 19, 2015 (edited) 1138 is a great cabin. We've been in 1141 just on the other side of 1140 and loved it so much we booked it again. For our next sailing we went through all the Bermuda sailings from May through August until we found that cabin available and grabbed it immediately. Also you will love Blu! I would have ideally traveled in June but nothing was available until August 14th. It's worth the wait!

TeaBag Posted June 19, 2015 #64 Share Posted June 19, 2015 I agree 1138 is a great cabin. I didn't know about the outdoor movies. When did that start and where are they shown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deck 12' but someone who was in an aft cabin just recently posted they didn't hear anything from the MUTS. They're shown on Wednesday and Thursday nights on the Bermuda cruises...not sure about other destinations. Maybe someone will chime in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katidid213 Posted October 7, 2016 #66 Share Posted October 7, 2016 I just upgraded from a C3 to A1 in 1133. We've never had an aft balcony and are really looking forward to it with some trepidation. My husband can get queasy but I'm hoping that a seaband, Bonine, and calm Southern Caribbean seas should prevent any issues. We sail on Summit 11/19/2016 and will post a review of this cabin post-cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2theship Posted October 7, 2016 #69 Share Posted October 7, 2016 We had 1130 on the Summit and loved it. There's plenty of shade and people from below have to really look hard to see you on your balcony. There is a canopy that hangs over most of the bar so it's not like someone can be right below you and see you easily. It's my understanding that there's now no smoking allowed at the Oceanview Bar on some ships but I don't know if it's fleet-wide. If that's the case, I might be more inclined to take 1133 as I think they've added a stairway up to Deck 12 to the movies on the side by 1130.

Just got off Summit.. smoking has been eliminated at sunset bar and that stairway (actually 2 one port & one starboard) has been there since the Aqua refit 4 years ago Sorry (misunderstood) those are stairs from 10 to 11 There is a new staircase to 12 is on the port side forward of the Aqua cabins) and the one on starboard is aft nearby 1133 Sent from my iPhone using Forums Edited October 7, 2016 by avid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChucktownSteve Posted October 7, 2016 #71 Share Posted October 7, 2016 (edited) We were on the Summit in August this year to Bermuda. We were in 1138, third cabin over from you. We had two lounges, one regular chair and foot rest with a table. That's our view. The pigeon is named Pina Colada by the bar staff below. He/she stayed a lot on our deck. I called it a he, my DW called it a she. He had been on the Summit for 3 months after getting on in Bermuda. Don't know if he's still on board. You'll have a great view and an almost private elevator aft. On deck 10 it's hidden in the middle of the starboard side buffet.

colombiangirl Posted October 7, 2016 #73 Share Posted October 7, 2016 I've been in 1141 twice, two years ago and this past August 14th. Those are amazing cabins!! You will love it. We got a kick out of Piña Colada all week as well. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrivesLikeMario Posted October 7, 2016 #74 Share Posted October 7, 2016 For anyone that wants more balcony space, the Cat. C1s on Deck 7 are much deeper than 1130 (especially) and 1138. Plus, you don't get the smoke and noise from the Sunset Bar. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
