Hey Tina Posted August 24, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I'm booking a cove balcony on the Magic and I keep reading things about there sometimes being noise because of what area of the ship is above your room. How am I supposed to figure out what is above my room! :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Tina Posted August 24, 2014 Author #4 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Well I appreciate that, but I guess I just don't get it. Because lets's say I find a room, and then click on Lobby, I am able to sort of see what could be above the room dependent on me remembering it's approximate location. Is there not a more precise way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hey Tina Posted August 24, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted August 24, 2014 NVM, I'll figure it out. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutontow Posted August 24, 2014 #6 Share Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) Try this Search the web for carnival magic cabins to avoid. I know it doesn't pertain to you but I always try to book a cabin that has cabins above and below me. I think noise is going to be hard to avoid with the lobby above you.

RuthlessBoss Posted August 24, 2014 #7 Share Posted August 24, 2014 What cabin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eng23 Posted August 24, 2014 #8 Share Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) On the Magic you will either have the Magic Lobby, Nothern Lights Dinning Room, and the Galley located above the Cove Balcony cabins. What is above your particular cabin? It depends on where your cabin is at. Is it towards the forward part of the ship? The middle of the ship? Or towards the back of the ship?

Robwerks Posted August 24, 2014 #9 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Hey Tina- Try this web site http://www.cruisedeckplans.com There is a feature where you can drag the decks beside each other for a comparison. What is quicker is to use the elevators as a guide. They do not move from deck to deck. For example if you are 5 cabins up from the mid ship elevators you can then go to the deck above and tell what is right above you. Fairly easy and a great way to spend some time cruising without actually being on the ship!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I didn't even think to google that but I bet i'll get some good information! From my (limited) research it sounds like being below the galley is worse than being under the lobby, and it sort of makes sense. I hope its accurate information. What cabin? Don't have one yet. I put 2309 on hold for 24 hours.

Iirc it has the Lobby above it. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. There are a few left that are not underneath the galley (which is a bad place to be under if I understand correctly).

I just looked at drag it decks. That cabin is no where near the gally. If picture placement is aligned, it's at the end of Northern Lights DR which is near the lobby. DR is carpeted.

It looks like 2309 is more under the forward dinning room. That should not be too bad as the dinning room is carpeted which should add a little insulation to the cabins below and the dinning rooms are not used 24 hours a day. It is true that being under the galley is not very desirable as you might hear carts and other equipment moved around and the galley runs almost 24 hours a day.

Eeyore_Lover Posted August 24, 2014 #15 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Hey Tina, I was in cabin 2309 on the Breeze and it was a good location. I have also been in 2277, which I liked even more because it is so convenient to the stairs, but there we did not notice nay noise other than the rude neighbors slamming their doors. I love the coves! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picomullet Posted August 24, 2014 #16 Share Posted August 24, 2014 http://www.cruisedeckplans.com/DP/Main/dragit2.php?ship=Carnival Magic This has always helped me. You can drag the decks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picomullet Posted August 24, 2014 #17 Share Posted August 24, 2014 http://www.cruisedeckplans.com/DP/Main/dragit2.php?ship=Carnival Magic Ok. You need to choose Magic or whatever ship you are sailing on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmcsharon Posted August 24, 2014 #18 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I guess those deck plans aren't to scale because if you match up the forward elevators, cabin 2309 is in the dining room. If you match up the aft elevators it puts 2309 in lobby. Either way...I'm also hoping it's a good location because I have that same cabin booked for my cruise in September! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hey Tina Posted August 31, 2014 Author #19 Share Posted August 31, 2014 After all that I ended up going with 2294! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
