Sunrayz Posted November 10, 2008 #1 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I have just been assigned a state room on Valor for Jan 4/09 Sailing. I am wondering if I could get some info on this particular room. I am in Category 4F #9212. This is my first cruise for Son and myself, all help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You Carla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TicTac#2 Posted November 11, 2008 #2 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Hi Carla I'm not sure what information you are looking for. You picked a good ship- newer larger, (110,000 tons) so lots of people and space. The location of your room is high on the ship, which is great if you have a view to enjoy. The room location is very forward, which is no problem in calm or slight sea conditions, but if you get some higher sea conditions you may get some pitch (that up and down movement) if you don't have any problem with sea-sickness then you may even enjoy a little pitch. Lower and closer to mid-ships will give you a better ride in all types of weather. You will have other cabins above and below your location so should be quiet. The size of the Cat 4f is 185 square feet-find for two persons. Enjoy your cruise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunrayz Posted November 11, 2008 Author #3 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Thank You so much for the reply. It is an interior room, so no view. But I was concerned with it being so close to the front of the ship. Don't know if we are prone to being seasick, but I guess we will soon find out. Thank You again Carla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jencredible Posted November 11, 2008 #4 Share Posted November 11, 2008 We were in 9244 last month and it was a wonderful location. Although it was also an interior, and also our first cruise, I don't know if I'd ever book on a deck other than the Lido- it was so convenient- and close to everything- we loved it!

TicTac#2 Posted November 12, 2008 #5 Share Posted November 12, 2008 You may wish to take some medications -just in case. Remember you can escape some of the pitch (if that happens) by going to a lower deck amidships-the casino works for me :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted November 12, 2008 #6 Share Posted November 12, 2008 How do you fair when riding amusment rides? or riding in vehicles? Inside rooms ARE extremly dark 24 hours a day- take an alarm clock or use the telephone wake up service-- your body will try to sleep most of the day away. Make sure the agent has the reservationmarked as beds are to be seperated-- if you get to the cabin and they are not-- leave the steward a note on the bed or the mirror requesting they be seperated-- this will be done while you are at dinner. its a LONG walk to the buffet every day-- good luck. but if you turn right out of your cabin and head all the way forward-- there are stairs there that will take you outside so you can see the port when arriving and exiting-- without going far from your room. http://www.carnival.com/Deck_Plan.aspx?shipCode=VA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
