ckrobyn Posted January 25, 2007 #1 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Quick question for those of you in the know.... Are these cabins exactly the same? Would you choose one over the other - and if so, why? Thanks for the help :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isujim Posted January 25, 2007 #2 Share Posted January 25, 2007 ck Aren't these corner aft? One on port corner and one on starboard? Or am I confused with other cabin numbers? I would assume they are the same Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
familycruzer Posted January 25, 2007 #3 Share Posted January 25, 2007 I am guessing you are asking about a Voyager class ship, right? I stayed in 1394 on VOS and I asked the resident of 1688 if I could have a look at the cabin. My thoughts, the balcony was dark because of all the metal on the side. The room was a nice size though and a bit different in shape from a normal cabin. 1388 and 1688 are the same cabin though, just different sides of the ship.

FitzLA Posted January 25, 2007 #5 Share Posted January 25, 2007 They are exactly the same. No difference at all and no advantage in booking one over the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciderapple Posted January 25, 2007 #6 Share Posted January 25, 2007 They are exactly the same. No difference at all and no advantage in booking one over the other. Almost!

ckrobyn Posted January 25, 2007 Author #7 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Great! Thanks for the info. I just booked 1688 for our AOS cruise in February 2008 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calicruisefamily Posted January 25, 2007 #8 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Quick question for those of you in the know.... Are these cabins exactly the same? Would you choose one over the other - and if so, why? Thanks for the help :) We had 1688 on Voyager last month for the first time and "We loved it !" :) I would book that cabin again in a instant ! The room is much larger then a Reg D1 cat. and the Balcony is soo much larger then a D1 cat. Our friends from the M&M had 1388 and both cabins are the same. Another thing we loved about the balcony is that you can have sun and shade at the same time it is great for everyone. If you would like to see my pictures of 1688 send me a e-mail to cruzjandk@aol.com and I will be happy to send them over. Cali :) Monarch Baja 11/30/07 Voyager W. Caribbean 12/06 Voyager E.

over the edge Posted January 25, 2007 #9 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Great! Thanks for the info. I just booked 1688 for our AOS cruise in February 2008 :) Hey Ck That is great news. I thought you guys were thinking of changing plans for next February?? As you know, I snagged 1388 for next January. I'm pretty excited about it. I'll take lots of pictures for you. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie Voyager Posted January 25, 2007 #10 Share Posted January 25, 2007 As posted by someone else, they are exactly the same....but completely opposite! They are "mirror" opposites. The main thing that this effects is which side of the cabin the bed is on. I prefer my side of the bed to be closer to the balcony so I always take 1688! When you enter 1688 the head of the bed will be on the wall to your right. When you enter 1388 the head of the bed will be on the wall to your left! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EllieBB Posted January 25, 2007 #14 Share Posted January 25, 2007 I just booked 1688 for our AOS cruise in February 2008 :) We booked #1694 for our NOS cruise in February 2008. I had the same decision to make, 16 or 13 (94). I chose 1694 because I seem to have OCD...lol when I am facing the two doors, I want the one on the right. Ha ha! Have fun planning, I am! http://www.romain-moisescot.com/voyagerclass/virtualtour/aft/aftFR.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonnie Voyager Posted January 25, 2007 #16 Share Posted January 25, 2007 http://travel.webshots.com/album/42736707mJbKZS 1688/1388 is nearly as large as 1694/1394. Of course it doesn't have the larger bathroom with bathtub and it doesn't have the large closet, but it also doesn't have the large pricetag! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vermontvoyager Posted January 26, 2007 #22 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Hi Robyn... You will love cabin 1688.;) We had this cabin on Navigator last month and loved it. It is a real big D1 cabin with lots of room. We have cabin 1100 on Radiance next December that you had on your Radiance cruise and we are really looking forward to that cabin and cruise.:D Do you know if the sleeper sofa sleeps 1 or 2 people by chance ?

srqace Posted January 26, 2007 #23 Share Posted January 26, 2007 You will love 1688!! We had it last year and have booked it again for December 9. The balcony is great because it gives you a choice of sun or shade, it is really large and there is no one above you. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanafan Posted January 26, 2007 #24 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Great! Thanks for the info. I just booked 1688 for our AOS cruise in February 2008 :) I'll let you know in a few weeks.......but then again......we will cross paths..I will be all bummed out getting off the ship and you will be all geeked getting on board for 2 glorious weeks! I am pretty excited that I booked the Radiance in a JS 1100. Were you in that room, too?? Let's hope for fabulous weather!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
