Mower Lady Posted October 22, 2013 #1 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Hello, can anyone tell me which deck has the lifeboats on Dream? I've booked deck 5/6 outside plus & just noticed that some may have obscured views? I know I can book a particular cabin to avoid this, I know its being stingy:D but don't really want to.

Sheila49 Posted October 22, 2013 #2 Share Posted October 22, 2013 The lifeboats are well above decks 5/6. They are outside decks 9/10. Outside plus cabins are a very good size and central. I wouldn't bother paying to book one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geomagot Posted October 22, 2013 #3 Share Posted October 22, 2013 there are no obstructed cabins on deck 5/6 but cabins near the stern on deck 5 suffer from noise & vibration (engines) when ship is sailing (ie at night) I never paid to book an o/s+ either until I was put in one near the stern....now I shell out and book a cabin deck 6 (much quieter) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mower Lady Posted October 22, 2013 Author #4 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Thank you both for that, very helpful to make up my mind. Must have misread the website, sure it said some 5/6 cabins had obstructed views! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheila49 Posted October 22, 2013 #5 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Sorry didn't know about the problem on deck 5, only been on 6. We had 6054 first time, next couple of times had a standard outside near the front, only slightly smaller and one chair less! The deck plan in the brochure (if you have one) or on the website shows the positions of the cabins and the lifeboats and might be helpful.

StPiran Posted October 25, 2013 #6 Share Posted October 25, 2013 I stayed in 5145 this summer and the vibration noise kept me awake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomsonfirsttimer Posted November 3, 2013 #7 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Lifeboats are suspended on deck ten and the lifeboat drill it he'd on deck nine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovethesun22 Posted November 4, 2013 #8 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I've just booked for the first time on a Thomsons cruise, on the dream. I paid the £40 to have a choosen cabin. As I don't like any noise. Worth it for me :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaggersCruising Posted November 4, 2013 #9 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I stayed in 5145 this summer and the vibration noise kept me awake. We had 5150 in Feb/Mar last year and can't recall any noise or vibration. Well no more than expected for being on a ship anyway! Was a nice cabin though as didn't have that horrible dark wood paneling. Baggers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
