lauriedun Posted April 5, 2008 #1 Share Posted April 5, 2008 We are looking at booking this ship-I have heard hump cabins give you the best view. Are they private? Are any of the decks better than others? Any pictures would be appreciated. Also, does anyone know if they are plexiglass or metal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue L Posted April 5, 2008 #2 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Center hump has the best view but you will see gorgeous views no matter where you are on the ship. I prefer midship and a floor between two floors of cabins rather then over any public areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnaK Posted April 5, 2008 #3 Share Posted April 5, 2008 the balconies are metal. On AOS (Explorer and Voyager too), the balcony openings on deck 6 are smaller than the ones on the upper decks. (The balcony itself is the same size, but the cutout "window" is more restricted.) Not a huge issue, but if you have the option, select a balcony cabin on another deck besides deck 6.

MiniMom57 Posted April 5, 2008 #4 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Here's a photo of the balcony on deck 6 of Adventure.....we LOVED deck 6 and will definitely book there again if we have the chance. We've had cabins on deck 6 on Explorer and Adventure, both near the elevators and couldn't have been happier with the location! http://thumb15.webshots.net/t/59/659/6/71/61/2782671610045486895DmUfLk_th.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lauriedun Posted April 5, 2008 Author #5 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Thank You! There is a center hump cabin right by the elevators. I guess I better grab it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicruiser Posted April 5, 2008 #6 Share Posted April 5, 2008 I think that hump cabins are great. I've sailed on the sixth deck and enjoyed the extra privacy from the surrounding metal partition. It did not obstruct views at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmfan Posted April 7, 2008 #8 Share Posted April 7, 2008 lauriedun...did you get your cabin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socalcruising Posted April 7, 2008 #9 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Okay, I'm dumb, but I don't know what a "hump cabin" is. Can anyone enlighten me? Also, what is a "DH"? I think it means spouse, but to me it means designated hitter. I figured out TA is travel agent.:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lauriedun Posted April 8, 2008 Author #10 Share Posted April 8, 2008 lauriedun...did you get your cabin? Yes! I got 7618...center hump! Marshabear...we are sailing 3/22/09...what is your cabin #? Take pictures for me! Is it the southern caribbean itinerary? Social cruising...hump cabins are where the ship rounds out in the center. Not all ships have them. I think DH stands for dear husband, although in my mind sometimes I choose a different adjective depending on how he is acting. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socalcruising Posted April 8, 2008 #11 Share Posted April 8, 2008 I think people that cruise must get along very well. All the boards are filled with references to "Dear Husband"! Thank you for the insight and I wish I could share but my DH is an XH.:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
