Emerald Obstructed

[janetz]

Looking at a Panama cruise on the Emerald and considering an obstructed view cabin, forward on the Emerald deck

Seems like there are a few right between lifeboats. 
When I go to book it says fully obstructed.

Are the deck plans correct on the Princess website?

Thanks ahead 😊

Pictures that show most (some are missing) obst. cabins on all ships.

Pick a ship and scroll through the pix.

Thanks!!

It's been my experience that no matter what obstructed view cabin you book, even if it's one you know has a totally open view, the booking note always says "fully obstructed."   But the deck plans are accurate and renmar's website is a goldmine of reliable information.

Perfect.👍

The best is that you will have some light and a sliver of water view.

 

The worst is that you will have somebody clomping around outside your window in every tender port at 06:00...

I think I found a cabin  for us between two boats

We nearly always book one of these cabins.  For the price and the natural light, they can't be beat.

Best deal on P.  I like to book the ones aft because there a number that have no obstruction at all (e.g., E633 or E702).  They give you easy access to the rear elevators for getting to Skywalkers and  the Adagio Bar, great places for reading and watching the sea.  Also aft cabins will put you near the self laundry.

We had E415 in 2018 on the Emerald. It was well located and a rather unobstructed view.

Renmar and his wife (Theo and Anke) put a lot of effort into getting those pictures and all of us here owe them a great big THANK YOU for doing so. Those images have helped quite a few folks decide on cabins by letting them know exactly what the view would be. If you ever get to cruise with them be sure to tell them, "Dank je!"

I have been in E219 on Emerald Princess and this was the view and layout. 😊

Thanks Michael for your kind words.

 

I like to let everybody know that I transferred all the picture that are on my website to 🛳️deckplans dot com with the understanding that they always be free to view for everybody. My website will still be available but there won't be any upgrades of pictures especially for the new ships but 🛳️deckplans will do a good job of getting those when they come available.

Awesome

That is the cabin!! 😂

We normally go for a balcony but the pricing is way up for the Panama

I believe we are good!

I hope you and Anke can cruise again without some stupid restrictions. Chris and I would love to sail with you two again. We have met some pretty cool people cruising but only a few who are "special" to us. You two are definitely in that group. Keep yourselves safe and both of us really hope to cruise with you again.

 

Note: Tell Anke that I had toast and ham for breakfast the other day. 😁

Thank you everyone 

The link with the cabin locations was great!
Found two without any obstructions

Now to bite the bullet or not 🤔for January
