Cabin 5285 · Carnival Jubilee

Cabin 5285 is a Cove Balcony (category 7C) on Carnival Jubilee.

Cabin 5285 is a Cove Balcony on Deck 5 of Carnival Jubilee, 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. This is the steady part of the ship. When it gets lumpy, midship is where you want to be. We score it 8 out of 10 for steadiness.

On the ship's plan Family Harbor Lounge is on the deck below, about 1 cabin along from you. A deck between you takes most of the noise out of it, and it is a short trip when you want it. Quiet comes out at 8 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about it is 4 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Counting from the bow, it is the 65th cabin position of 164 along Deck 5. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door. Deck 5 also has Spa Treatment Rooms, Thermal Suites, Cloud 9 Spa and Salon on it. 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.

Against the rest of the ship it is steadier in a swell than 85 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers and travellers prone to seasickness. It is a poor fit for anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
