Cabin E128 · Carnival Elation

Cabin E128 is an Ocean View (category 6E1) on Carnival Elation, 158 to 243 square feet.

Cabin E128 is an Ocean View on Deck 7, the Empress deck, of Carnival Elation, and it sits midship. You are near the middle of the hull, where the ship does the least moving. In rough water that matters more than most people expect. We score it 8 out of 10 for steadiness.

On the ship's plan the lift bank is on the deck above, about 2 cabins along from you. You will still walk to the stairs or the lift to reach it, so treat it as a landmark rather than a neighbour. We give it 10 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about, 5 out of 10.

Counting from the bow, it is the 79th cabin position of 174 along Deck 7. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door.

An Ocean View gives you 158-243 square feet. You get daylight and a sense of where you are without paying balcony money. The window does not open, so it is the view but not the air.

Against the rest of the ship it is as quiet as anything on board, steadier in a swell than 77 per cent of them and better placed for getting around than 93 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers and travellers prone to seasickness.
