choochella Posted January 30, 2020 #1 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Does anyone know the range of inside cabin categories? They seem to range from IB to IF. Which is higher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggest you choose a cabin that is more likely to be quiet - passenger cabins above and below. Then consider how far forward or aft the cabin is.

choochella Posted January 31, 2020 Author #3 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Thx. I was just wondering which inside category is considered better. So, if I book an IF inside guarantee and was assigned an IB inside cabin, is that considered an upgrade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janetz Posted January 31, 2020 #4 Share Posted January 31, 2020 If your ship offers sideways inside cabins, grab one The layout is excellent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steelers36 Posted January 31, 2020 #6 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Doesn't matter what cabin type you talk about, the A is always considered the best (IA, OA, BA), and the F the worst. That said, different people have opinions that differ from what Princess considers better or worse. Some cabin types have number categories and those are higher than the letter categories. Again the lower number is the best - according to Princess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrak Posted January 31, 2020 #7 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Note that the categories change abruptly so a cabin right next door may be considered a "better" category by Princess and therefore cost more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, usually either side of a fire door between the various ship sectors: forward, mid-forward, midships, mid-aft and aft. One thing to look out for though is that a category like IB may be mid-forward and mid-aft on some mid-level decks (so a relatively good location) but also may be midships directly under the pool on an upper deck.

Yes, but strangely they often jump up several subcategories, rather than to the next one. Like, IF to IC, or BB to BF. You rarely seem to find IF bordering IE.

On lower deck those cabins may be IFs with ICs adjacent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
