Cabin 16269 · Carnival Jubilee

Cabin 16269 is a Balcony (category 8G) on Carnival Jubilee.

Cabin 16269 is a Balcony on Deck 16 of Carnival Jubilee, and it sits forward of midship. 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. There is some movement here, more than midship and a good deal less than the ends. Most people never think about it. We score it 7 out of 10 for steadiness.

You are all but on top of the lift bank, about 1 cabin away. Nothing on board is a shorter walk. The price is footsteps past your door and the lift chiming at odd hours. Quiet comes out at 7 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 8 out of 10.

Counting from the bow, it is the 44th cabin position of 64 along Deck 16. 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 noisier than three quarters of the 2,688 cabins on board and as well placed for getting around as any cabin aboard. It suits families running back to the cabin several times a day. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes.

Scored by Cruise Ship Wiki using model v1.8, from the position of this cabin relative to every public space on the ship. Each part is out of 10.
