Cabin 16246 · Carnival Jubilee

Cabin 16246 is a Balcony (category 8G) on Carnival Jubilee.

Cabin 16246 is a Balcony on Deck 16 of Carnival Jubilee, far forward. You are at the top of the passenger decks, so the pools and the open air are just up the stairs, and you feel the ship move more than anyone below you. You are well out towards the end of the hull, which is where pitching is felt hardest. Right up in the bow, a head sea can send a shudder through the hull that midship guests never feel at all. We score it 6 out of 10 for steadiness.

It is 8 cabins along the corridor to a stairwell. Close enough to be useful, far enough that it should not keep you awake. We give it 10 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about, 6 out of 10.

Counting from the bow, it is the 28th cabin position of 64 along Deck 16. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door. Deck 16 also has Bridge, Lido Marketplace, Tides Pool and Big Chicken on it. There are 89 cabins along this deck, so the corridor is short and rarely busy.

It is booked as a Balcony. A balcony buys you outside space of your own and, on sea days, somewhere to sit that is not the pool deck. It is the step up most people make, and the one they find hardest to give up again.

Against the rest of the ship it is as quiet as anything on board. It suits light sleepers.
