jp2001 Posted June 14, 2004 #1 Share Posted June 14, 2004 Upgrade??? I booked a 1A guaranteed and got assigned a 4A cabin. I know a 4A is a standard inside cabin vs. a A1 being a inside lower/upper berth cabin. But since the cabin I was assigned is no. 7345 and is right beside staircase/elevator (see this deck plan: http://leisure.travelocity.com/Vacations/Cruise/Ship/DeckPlans/0,2443,TCYCA_190_1402_,00.html), do you think I should ask to be put on the 1A Guaranteed list again? I fear a very noisy area, at every hour. What do you think? Carnival Valor for the Vampires Halloween Party: NCL Dawn, December 2003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brneyznfl Posted June 14, 2004 #2 Share Posted June 14, 2004 I wouldn't be worried about being near the stairs. I've had a cabin several times near stairs and I didn't hear a thing. However, I would be concerned about what is the big blank space shown on the deck plan on the other side of your cabin??? Jan NEXT CRUISE - MIRACLE 2/13/05!

tlynnie Posted June 14, 2004 #3 Share Posted June 14, 2004 That's a 4D, not a 4A. A 4A would still be Riviera deck, so you were moved several decks up . I got upgraded from 1A to 4D on my upcoming cruise and the difference saved me about $500. I'm sure you're in a good location! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Too many days since the Legend (10/03) Looking forward to Victory...6/04!!!

Rare finoky Posted June 14, 2004 #4 Share Posted June 14, 2004 We have never booked a gaurantee. However, we have always selected a specific cabin and always get one as close as possible to the stairs,elevators. We have never had any problems with noise and find that location to be very convenient.

mirrajay Posted June 14, 2004 #5 Share Posted June 14, 2004 One thing I have noticed about the 1A cabins is that most (if not all) are in the very front or back of the ship which tends to be where there is more movement. I would think this is a very good upgrade as I have been told that the elevator area is really not as noisy as you would expect it to be. Enjoy! Congrats on the upgrade!

PokrChick Posted June 14, 2004 #6 Share Posted June 14, 2004 Looks like a good spot to me too! I also like cabins near the elevator / stairs - just makes my cabin seem closer to the action. I'm sure with all the cruisers that stay in these cabins, they've done something to cut down on the bleed-through of noise. Otherwise, they'd get nothing but complaints. Relax and enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knights on the Beach Posted June 14, 2004 #7 Share Posted June 14, 2004 This is a good location! I think you did very well, booking a 1A and getting upgraded to a 4D.
