Size of portholes on Nautica

Thinking of booking an outside cabin. We can have a window, possibly obstructed with no sofa, or a cabin with a sofa but a porthole - they look pretty small. How big are they please?

Go with the porthole cabin. The obstructed cabins are much smaller and really too small for two people, IMO.

Thanks for your helpful replies.

I believe that because the portholes may be required to provide egress for a fully grown adult in the event of an emergency their minimum size on a Passenger Ship is 400mm or 15.748 inches across.

If that does not give you pause at the buffet line, nothing ever will ;p

If that were the case I would hope to make it down the hall to the crew exit

even a small child could not get out that porthole :eek:

LOL. I hope you did not have to go to the dentist after writing your reply. Your tongue did detach itself from your cheek?

Better measure your waist size before you book a stateroom with a porthole. Betcha 90% of the PAX who chow down at the buffet would get stuck in the porthole. Ever notice that those kind of people load up , overflowing their plates as if they were having their last meal? ;p;p

Remember when Lucy was supposedly stuck in the porthole in one of her "SS Constitution" Episodes?

and she was not exactly hippy
