Room above a lifeboat??

[Lintravel]

Hi. We have booked on Britannia, first cruise, and the rooms we have been given are above lifeboats I think. Our rooms are select fare, balcony with shower and sofa, unobstructed view rooms. Is this okay or do they impact on the view? Had next to no guidance from P&O when booking. The rooms is F508, 510, 512. Thanks for any advice.

The deck you are on doesnt have any obstruction from the lifeboats but the deck below (g deck) does. If you look straight down from your balcony you probably wont be able to see the sea but the same applies to all the decks above and looking downwards.

If it says unobstructed then your cabin won't have an impeded view. Only those on the same deck as the lifeboats will have a degree of obstruction.

Hi, we stayed in F507 on Britannia lady year so on the other side from you. It was a great cabin, the lifeboat didn't cause any problem. Plenty storage space. It was a bit of a hike to the staircases as we were just along from the midship lifts but not an issue for us. We would happily book the same cabin again.
