Heather White Posted July 3, 2021 #1 Share Posted July 3, 2021 What is the difference between V1 and OB? Could somebody please explain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isklaar Posted July 3, 2021 #2 Share Posted July 3, 2021 (edited) V1 is a specific suite category. OB is Oceanview Balcony suite, usually applies to a booking made where no specific suite is selected at time of booking, , ie cruise line allocates the suite number (guarantee or GTY status).

Heather White Posted July 3, 2021 Author #3 Share Posted July 3, 2021 Thank you. When I booked, I said I was happy to take "pot luck". Travelling on the Ovation, I could see that all cabins had balconies. My paperwork states that I am in Category V1, Suite Guarantee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalliowner Posted July 3, 2021 #4 Share Posted July 3, 2021 I think you will find that means V1 is the minimum you will be given , which is the minimum on the Ovation anyway. I am sure you will have a great time wherever your cabin is 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have taken a chance by booking a guarantee rather than a specific suite several times and it has always worked out very well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLSD Posted July 3, 2021 #6 Share Posted July 3, 2021 The one time we booked an OB instead of a specific suite, we were very pleased. In fact, we liked the suite more than the ones we had specifically chosen on other cruises. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Joanne It stands for suite, as in all of the guest accommodations on SB are suites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
