Cabins on the Carnival Venezia

[kermie1963]

I have an interior cabin on deck 7 in the middle of the ship. I got an offer for an ocean-view cabin on deck one in the front of the ship. Is the upgrade worth it?

[Riles34]

How much? And it really depends on if you want some light in the room or not. I was on Deck 1 interior and the elevators are great on the ship with minimal wait times, so keep that in mind. You choose the floor you want to go to from the outside and then it tells you what elevator to get on.

I would take an upgrade from interior to OV in a heartbeat as long as the upgrade cost is reasonable.

[kermie1963]

It is 168.

That’s too much for me. If it was a balcony, sure, but not just an ocean view.

Keep your deck 7 location. Deck 1 rooms can have a lot of noise and vibration during docking.

How long is the cruise?  I probably wouldn’t make the change at that price for a 7 day cruise, but probably would for 14 days.

[kermie1963]

It is 11 days.

Hi, did you get an email with the offer or you found it within your cruise reservation?  Thanks and enjoy your cruise.

its usually somewhere in the cruise manager with a message to upgrade and there is only one offer. if you decline, you will no longer get any more upgrades

For that particular cruise, you must mean. I don't believe we have ever accepted an upgrade offer, but we continue to get them from time to time. 

[kermie1963]

E-mail.

This is a toughie, for me. 

 

11 nt OV? Heck yeah. 

 

Deck 1? Uhhhhhh.... 

 

(I have an irrational aversion to decks 1 and 2.  Ive only recently shed my balcony only rule which lead to OV. Not too shabby! From that we have had two inside casino offer cabin offers we couldnt refuse.  Meh.  I like that natural sunlight!!!)

@kermie1963 if you don't smoke or have an aversion to the smell of cig smoke, you may want to reconsider a mid-ship deck 7 cabin (of any type) on Venezia. We had an aft wrap deck 7 in Sept and really thought someone was smoking near the mid-ship elevators. Cabin Steward said it's from the casino - he has allergies and struggled w/it his entire contract.

Just another point you may want to consider. 

Safe travels - enjoy your cruise!

Thanks. I hate the smell of smoke.

We were in a forward cabin last week on Deck 3.  The banging noises in the middle of the night (supposedly from ship movement and waves) we have never experienced before in 30 years of cruising - so loud and annoying.  Maybe had to do with sailing out of NY in rougher seas???  But apparently felt only in forward cabins . . .

When do you sail? I'm a month out and I'm cruising with friends who have a regular balcony, while I have a Cove Balcony. I may be able to answer your question.
