Cabin U124 · Carnival Elation

Cabin U124 is an Ocean View (category 6D1) on Carnival Elation, 158 to 243 square feet.

Cabin U124 is an Ocean View on Deck 6, the Upper deck, of Carnival Elation. You are aft of midship. You are far enough from the middle to notice a swell, but nowhere near the worst of it. We score it 8 out of 10 for steadiness.

The lift bank sits two decks up, roughly 5 cabins along the ship 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 it is 3 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Of the 154 cabin positions on Deck 6, this is the 87th from forward. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door.

The Ocean View grade runs 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 and steadier in a swell than 77 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.
