fragilek Posted May 6, 2014 #1 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I booked cabin 2602 on the vision of the sees. On the deck plans there is a blanked out cabin size gap opposite the cabin also there is an area that is boxed of in the stairway beside the cabin. Does anyone know what these are. Has anyone stayed or near this cabin or the one above on deck 3. Really worried I have made a mistake booking this room. If people think there is an issue can I call my TA to move cabin- is that allowed (first TA booking and first cruise with RCI). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what the blank area is, but you can move staterooms within the same exact category with no change in price. Just contact your TA.

cb at sea Posted May 6, 2014 #3 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Those "blank" areas are likely storage....nothing for you to be concerned about. You are in a very convenient location! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LMaxwell Posted May 6, 2014 #4 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I had a Deck 2 OV cabin just forward of the rear elevators, only a few rooms down from your room. I can't speak to the accessible features of your room, but the location was fine; nice and quiet, and the room had been refurbished and was very nice. I would have zero hesitation taking that room or location again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people think there is an issue can I call my TA to move cabin- is that allowed (first TA booking and first cruise with RCI). If you are referring to the boxed space across the hall ( not bedside) from the cabin, that is the service area for the cabin attendants. You will hardly notice any noise since it is not directly besides/adjacent to 2602. During the night while you're sleeping it's generally not being used. Yes you can request to be moved to another cabin in the same category and not incur a cost increase. However it's important to note that Accessible cabins are often booked a year or more in advance due to the limited amount. Additionally you stated in another post that you have 4 people in the cabin. There are only 2 OV Accessible Cabins on Vision class ships 2602 and 2102 that can accommodate 4 people so the other may already be booked. I noticed that you have not return to your post titled "? for wheelchair/scooter users on med cruises " Thought perhaps you may not have been able to locate it since it now appears on page 7 of this forum .

Here's the link http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2036541 Thanks for that- I assumed that all the accessible rooms would take 4 as they are the same size- I think its easiest just to stay put. I was most worried about the square box inside the stair/lift area as I have never seen that on plans before. I did have a look at the replies on the scooter thread but have been doing some research into an alternate plan for the ports. When I get a new hopefully more manageable plan together I was going to post back on to see what those with more experience than me thought about it. I am glad I asked it would have been a bit foolish to have hired the scooter and then not been able to use it most places :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
