Cabin 5240 · Carnival Jubilee

Cabin 5240 is a Cove Balcony (category 7C) on Carnival Jubilee.

Cabin 5240 is a Cove Balcony on Deck 5 of Carnival Jubilee, forward of midship. You are near the bottom of the passenger decks, which is the steadiest place to be, though it is a fair climb to the open air. You are far enough from the middle to notice a swell, but nowhere near the worst of it. We score it 6 out of 10 for steadiness.

You are practically next door to the lift bank, 1 cabin along. Nothing on board is a shorter walk. The price is footsteps past your door and the lift chiming at odd hours. We give it 9 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about it is 4 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Of the 164 cabin positions on Deck 5, this is the 18th from forward. You share Deck 5 with Spa Treatment Rooms, Thermal Suites, Cloud 9 Spa and Salon. There are 286 cabins along this deck, so the corridor is a long walk end to end.

It is booked as a Cove 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.

It suits light sleepers. It is a poor fit for anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
