Probably the best way is to go to the Celebrity web site, pick a ship and look up the staterooms. I have included a link for you below on the Solstice. Just click on Stateroom Gallery. As you stated they are not all the same. ie: Only the Solstice Class ships include and Aqua Class Category. If you go more deeply into the web site they will show you the amenities that come with each class...

Thank you I will look into that .

Easy way to think of it is this--and it's pretty much true for all ships on all cruise lines:

There are really only four types of cabins:

Inside--no windows

"Ocean View"--a window to the outside

The different categories within each group (aside from suites) are really more to do with location than anything else...

All cruise lines will create different categories within the above groups with slight price differences...usually based on deck or on location within the ship...go one deck up in virtually the same cabin and you are one category higher...a cabin near midship may be one category higher than one toward the front or back...anf the "higher" category will have a marginally higher price...

They do this because some people perceive an advantage to a higher deck or a more midship location and are willing to pay a little more for that location...

Celebrity (and some other lines to some extent) have also differentiated groups of balcony cabins based on some added amenities--hence "Concierge" and "Aqua Class"...Concierge has a few added amenities and Aqua Class some special spa and dining amenities...but the cabins are basically the same as all other balcony cabins...

Suites, of course, are in different categories based on the size of the suite...all of which are larger than standard balcony cabins...

As far as I am concerned all inside cabins are basically the same--the layout is the same, the view :) is the same...The only difference is the convenience of the location and what deck you are on may be of importance to some...

Ocean View cabins, again, are all the same...and, for the most part, all on low decks...and, again, it's a matter of location...

Balconies are higher decks...and, in my mind, no difference between being on, say, Deck 7 and Deck 8...but 8 will be a slightly higher priced category...

Of course, if you find a cabin you like, don't worry about the category, the price difference isn't that much anyway...

But, really don't expect to see much of a differnece between, say, your 1C cabin and a 1A cabin or your category 10 inside from your category 11 inside...

Are you trying to understand the codes Celebrity uses or the shorthand words, or "codes", we use here on cruise critic?

The Celebrity codes are more or less explained in any of the brochures on the ships, or deck plans on their website, that describe the rooms and locations.

Here on Cruise Critic we frequent posters use some codes that are a combination of the codes used by Celebrity (see above) along with some abbreviations. Some common ones:

FV - Family view room - these are larger rooms designed to accommodate larger families.

CC - often used to refer to both Concierge Class rooms or to Cruise Critic. Celebrity recently tiered the Concierge Class rooms so now they might also be referred to as C1, C2 or C3 rooms.

OS - outside rooms which have no balcony (just a window)

Any others you're trying to figure out?

Larry is correct and brings up good points. Another use for CC is Captains Club which is the name of Celebrity's previous cruiser club. So if you see CC it could mean Concierge Class, Cruise Critic or Captains Club...

Seve, I just love that view from the inside cabin! :)

Not every cruise line categorizes their cabins in the same way. Some use a number system, some number and letters and others use just letters. And, there are no rhyme or reason on how the categorize things because on some lines, the higher the number or letter means the lowest cabin category while on other lines, the lower number/letter means the most expensive cabins.

Is the difference between C1 and C2 just location? I am booked in a C2 on Century. The cabin adjacent is a C1. I am assuming they are essentially the same, just curious. (Newbie question that I couldn't find the answer to by searching. I have learned so much on these boards in the past couple months. You folks are amazing!)

Like state lines, cruise lines are arbitrary and all about money. Where they draw the lines defies logic. M class 2C's on deck six are now C1's. And to think I once sailed in 6135 for the price of a 2C :):(. If they could find a way to convince people that an inside was worth as much as an outside, I am sure they would do it.:eek:

It really comes down to the desirability of the cabin. Generally C1 have something special about them, like a bigger balcony. For example on the M class ships the aft cabins with the big balcony and the 4 cabins designed to be second adjoining bedrooms to the Royal Suites on deck 6 are the C1 category. All have larger than normal balconys.

The difference between C2 and C3 in my opinion is more about location. C2 being more mid ship.

C1's seem to be selling out quickly now so generally they don't get price drops like they used to when there was only one CC class.

Probably the best way is to go to the Celebrity web site, pick a ship and look up the staterooms. I have included a link for you below on the Solstice. Just click on Stateroom Gallery. As you stated they are not all the same. ie: Only the Solstice Class ships include and Aqua Class Category. If you go more deeply into the web site they will show you the amenities that come with each class...   http://www.celebritycruises.com/plancruise/ships/ship.do;jsessionid=0000COQrEZky2Vk72w4UttCvt1f:12h3rnd1c?shipCode=SL&cS=SIDENAV

Don that is a great site!

We have sailed the Solstice recently. We are sailing on the Equinox in Oct and I know they are sister ships; I wanted to see the color variations between them.

I tried changing the above link to the Equinox, but couldn’t figure how. (I tried drilling down, but could not find the stateroom gallery for the Equinox.)

Any suggestions?

It depends on the ship. On the Century I believe that the only difference is location. I haven't been on Century yet so I could be wrong but that is my understanding based on looking into that when booking our upcoming Century cruise.

On the M Class the C1 cabins have larger verandas and the only difference between C2 and C3 is the location.

On the Equinox I see Veranda staterooms in categories 1a, 1b, and 1c along with 2a and 2b that all appear to be the same size. What is the difference between these 5 categories?

It is basically the location. The middle of the ship is considered the best place for limited movement.

The aft cabins are desirable because many like viewing the wake so the cruise lines charge more.

Cabins above public spaces aren't desirable because of the noise. Many like cabins on deck 7 or 8 because it is only a few stairs up or down to the public areas so they charge more for them. Really doesn't matter if youalways used the elevators. The lower decks also have obstructed views because of the life boats

Best to talk to your travel agent. If they can't give you a answer that you are happy with get a new TA

Happy cruising 🌊 🚢 🇺🇸 🌞

I couldn't understand why one of the posts stated that only Solstice class ships include an aqua class category, then realised this thread is over seven years old.

Everything you need to know about Celebrity Cruises cabins and suites

In keeping with the ambiance on Celebrity Cruises ' vessels, the brand's accommodations offer an elevated experience without going full-on luxury. That means Celebrity's passengers can expect more sophisticated surroundings and an upscale vibe at relatively affordable prices.

Like the vessels themselves, the line's cabins are well-appointed and elegant, with modern touches that appeal to a slightly younger-than-average cruise demographic.

Learn what to expect from each room type before you book with our primer for those who are new to Celebrity.

Celebrity Cruises cabin primer

Celebrity Cruises' fleet of ships includes more than a dozen vessels that fall into four main categories : Millennium Class, Solstice Class, Edge Class and Galapagos Class. Ships in the first three classes share similarities in terms of their cabin offerings. The Galapagos-class vessels are much smaller and include a narrower selection of cabin types and amenities. Because of this, the Galapagos Class will have its own section below; the other sections of this article do not apply to the Galapagos Class.

Although all of the ships' staterooms fall into the same general categories – insides, oceanviews, balconies and suites – the specific types of each vary across classes, particularly with regard to the most expensive options.

Even at the most basic level, nearly all accommodations include two twin beds that can be connected to form a king (most rooms) or queen; a desk and vanity area with a chair, drawers and a phone; nightstands with drawer space and reading lights; a sofa or plush chair; a coffee table; an in-cabin bathroom with shampoo, conditioner, body wash and towels; a closet with shelves, hanging space and bathrobes; a safe; a hair dryer; a television with a selection of movies and live TV, as well as shipboard channels and the ability to check the daily schedule and your onboard bill; a mini-fridge; a selection of outlets, including USB ports; and individual lighting and climate controls.

All cabins also come with the services of a room attendant, who will tidy your digs up to two times daily. All passengers also have access to 24-hour room service, which carries a fee of $9.95 per order, plus an 18% auto-gratuity.

Across the fleet, all ships offer connecting rooms, with some of the largest suites joining to sleep up to 10 people. The line also features special accommodations for solo cruisers on a small number of its vessels (specifics are noted below under applicable cabin categories).

Further, all ships offer several accessible accommodations across all main stateroom categories (except Celebrity Solstice and Celebrity Reflection, which do not offer accessible standard balcony cabins) for passengers needing extra space for wheelchairs, walkers and scooters. Those cabins feature wider (32-inch) doorways, a 5-foot turning radius, ramped bathroom thresholds, bathroom grab bars, lowered sinks and vanities, higher toilets, roll-in showers with fold-down benches, hand-held showerheads, lowered closet bars and accessible balconies (in select staterooms).

Unless otherwise noted, all cabins are designed for double occupancy. In most cases, solo travelers staying in accommodations meant for two people will be charged an additional cruise fare, known as a single supplement. Further, some staterooms are outfitted with trundle beds, pull-down bunks or sofa beds that can accommodate up to four people per room.

Inside cabins on Celebrity ships

Inside cabins on Celebrity ships run anywhere from 170 to 202 square feet, and they offer everything mentioned above. The one thing they don't have is a view.

As is implied by their name, they have no windows and no balconies for natural light or fresh air. These are stellar options for anyone on a budget or travelers who have trouble sleeping with any sort of light.

Celebrity Silhouette has four inside cabins available for solo travelers.

Oceanview cabins on Celebrity ships

Oceanview cabins on Celebrity ships come in at between 170 and 242 square feet, depending on the ship and type.

True to their name, these rooms offer views of the ocean from windows that don't open, so although there are no in-cabin ocean breezes, there is natural light.

They include all of the basic amenities listed above.

Balcony cabins on Celebrity ships

There are several veranda categories available throughout the Celebrity fleet, all of which offer traditional balcony setups. Types include basic balcony cabins (170 to 202 square feet, 38- to 53-square-foot balcony), Family Verandas (270 to 575 square feet, 106- to 242-square-foot balcony) that sleep a larger number of people and Sunset Verandas (194 to 228 square feet, 53- to 89-square-foot balcony) that offer aft views of the ship's wake.

The vessels also offer AquaClass and Concierge Class digs, which are essentially basic balcony accommodations with some extras. The former focuses on wellness and comes with free fitness classes, unlimited access to the onboard spa's thermal suite, dining at exclusive health-focused restaurant Blu, a healthier room service menu, daily bottled water, upgraded toiletries, discounts on spa packages and yoga mats for in-cabin use. The latter entitles cruisers to amenities like dedicated concierge services, as well as an exclusive luncheon, daily in-room canapes and sparkling wine on request.

Basic amenities are included, but what really sets these accommodations apart is that they provide cruisers with private access to ocean air – no need to venture to a public deck.

Infinite Veranda

As with standard balcony cabins, Infinite Verandas – which are only found on ships in the line's Edge Class – come with the basic amenities listed above, but they also grant a bit more interior space (202 square feet) in lieu of the usual walk-out terrace.

They earn their own category here because, as those who book the accommodations will find, instead of a traditional balcony, they have a window that can be raised and lowered with the push of a button. A set of see-through folding doors allows the area near the window to be cordoned off in order to make it feel like a more traditional balcony.

RELATED: 6 reasons to stay in a balcony cabin

Celebrity's three newest vessels each have several Infinite Veranda solo cabins for cruisers traveling by themselves. Celebrity Edge has 16, and Celebrity Apex offers 24, while Celebrity Beyond boasts 32. They offer 131 to 184 square feet of space with 42- to 45-square-foot interior balcony areas.

Suites on Celebrity ships

There are 10 types of suites on Celebrity's ships, four of which – Sky Suites, Celebrity Suites, Royal Suites and Penthouse Suites – appear on every single ship in the fleet. Two more – Edge Villas and Iconic Suites – are found only on Edge-class vessels. Another two, Signature Suites and Reflection Suites, are exclusive to Celebrity Reflection, and the remaining Sunset Suites and AquaClass Suites are new to the fleet with the debut of Celebrity Beyond.

Passengers booked in any of the suites in this category have access to the exclusive suites-only lounge and pool deck, known as The Retreat, as well as dining in suite-access-only restaurant Luminae.

Cruisers in these accommodations also receive a slew of perks, including higher-level Wi-Fi and drink packages (upgraded from the free ones that come with all fares); onboard credit; prepaid gratuities; free in-room bottles of alcohol; complimentary laundry, shoeshine, butler and concierge services; and priority embarkation and tendering, among other draws.

An explanation of each type of suite can be found below.

These are the smallest suites in the fleet, ranging from 251 to 362 square feet with balconies that range from 57 to 163 square feet. They're arranged in a studio configuration, similar to what you'd find in non-suite cruise-ship accommodations. They're the least expensive option for those who crave access to suite-level amenities.

Celebrity Suites

For cruisers wanting the step up their square footage or storage space, a Celebrity Suite will do the trick. Expect 394 to 498 square feet, plus a balcony between 51 and 105 square feet, complete with separate living and bedroom spaces, a sizeable bathroom (with a bathtub/shower combo) and tons of drawers and cabinets to help chronic overpackers stow their belongings.

Royal Suites

For an even bigger upgrade, Royal Suites come in at between 538 and 687 square feet with verandas measuring 72 to 195 square feet. Each has ample storage, separate lounging and sleeping quarters, and a generously sized bathroom with a shower and separate soaking tub that's perfect for relaxing after a day in port.

Penthouse Suites

Penthouse suites are the largest accommodations found fleetwide, ranging from 1,291 to 1,432 square feet with 197- to 1,098-square-foot verandas that are large enough for their own private hot tubs. The two-bed, two-bath setup with a separate sitting area and dining table that seats eight, makes these cabins great for entertaining or sharing with travel companions.

Edge Villas

These two-deck suites offer an upstairs-and-downstairs setup with one bedroom, two bathrooms, and a living room in 739 square feet of space. There's also a 211-square-foot balcony. These rooms are exclusive to the line's Edge Class of ships, and they boast access to a private plunge pool.

Iconic Suites

Iconic Suites -- which are in high demand, due to their limited numbers and plethora of extras -- are the largest on Edge-class vessels, offering 1,892 square feet, a nearly 689-square-foot balcony (larger than most staterooms onboard, complete with a private hot tub and daybed), a bathroom with dual sinks and a whirlpool tub, and an unparalleled forward-facing view from directly above the bridge.

Signature Suites

While Signature Suite accommodations are on the smaller side, at 441 square feet, the 118-square-foot balcony still manages to include an outdoor tub with a rain shower so you can soak while taking in the views as you sail. They also include high ceilings, a shower/tub combo, and separate living and sleeping areas.

Reflection Suites

At nearly four times the size of Signature Suites, Reflection Suites come equipped with two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a cantilevered glass shower that hangs out over the ocean for simply amazing views. All of this fits neatly into 1,636 square feet of space, plus a 194-square-foot balcony. Dual sinks, a separate soaking tub with a rain shower, high ceilings, a walk-in closet, and a prime corner location round out the opulent offerings. These suites are only slightly smaller than Iconic Suites, but their verandas are far tinier.

Sunset Suites

Similar to the wake-view concept behind the line's Sunset Veranda staterooms, Sunset Suites provide an elevated experience with the same stunning vistas at each ship's aft. Some of these suites are on the smaller side, comprising 296 to 575 square feet, plus a 53- to 242-square-foot balcony, but they do incorporate separate living and sleeping areas, making them feel more like true suites.

AquaClass Sky Suites

These rooms combine the space and enhanced extras of a Sky Suite (including access to The Retreat and Luminae) with the perks of an AquaClass cabin – fitness classes, thermal suite access, dining at Blu, daily bottled water, discounts on spa packages and yoga mats for in-cabin use – to bring passengers a more health-centric suite experience in 319 square feet with a 79-square-foot veranda.

Cabins on Celebrity's Galapagos-class ships

Because Celebrity's expedition vessels are much smaller, they warrant their own section. What follows is a breakdown of the cabin types – most of which are suites – offered on each ship.

Note that Celebrity Flora, Celebrity Xpedition and Celebrity Xploration have neither The Retreat nor Luminae, so suite passengers do not have access to those venues. Amenities also may vary from those offered on the fleet's non-expedition ships.

Celebrity Flora

The largest of Celebrity's expedition vessels, Celebrity Flora houses 50 cabins with a double-occupancy capacity for 100 passengers. All staterooms are classified as suites, with a mix of several types of Sky Suites, including some with Infinite Verandas (330 to 365 square feet, 65- to 86-square-foot balcony); Royal Suites (559 square feet, 129-square-foot balcony); and Penthouse Suites (1,288 square feet, 321-square-foot balcony).

Celebrity Xpedition

Significantly smaller is Celebrity Xpedition, which can carry 48 passengers across 24 cabins at capacity. Availability includes 160-square-foot oceanview accommodations; 175-square-foot Junior Suites with 45-square-foot verandas; and a combination of suites – Xpedition Suites, Royal Suites and Penthouse Suites – that run the gamut from 205 to 460 square feet with balconies ranging from 50 to 235 square feet. Given that Penthouse Suites on the line's other ships span 1,291 to 1,432 square feet with 197- to 1,098-square-foot verandas, it's easy to see that suite sizes decrease as ship sizes decrease.

Celebrity Xploration

The tiniest and most no-frills option on Celebrity's roster is Celebrity Xploration, which carries just 16 people in eight cabins at its maximum. Oddly, all staterooms are labeled as Junior Suites, but while half of them have balconies (180 square feet with 245-square-foot verandas), the other half (190 square feet) don't. It's also interesting to note that, in the ones that do have them, the balconies boast significantly more space than the interior living area does.

Bottom line

Celebrity's selection of basic cabins is fairly standard. However, when it comes to suites, passengers have a decent number of choices, and even the smallest and least expensive options offer coveted amenities and access to dedicated spaces.

Although there are suite types that span the entire fleet, the line likes to create experiences that are exclusive to some of its newest classes and ships.

Celebrity is one of the best big-ship cruise brands when it comes to everything from service and extras to in-cabin storage space, decor and even furniture layout. Overall, the line offers an upscale ambiance with a lot of value for your money, starting with inside cabins and running right up through accommodations at the suite level.

Learning cabin codes.

By Sphynxlady , March 21, 2017 in Celebrity Cruises

Recommended Posts

Is there a printout of codes? Although I have been on well over20 Celebrity cruises I dont know codes. Now that I read CC every day I woul better understand the conversation if I knew these. Thanks in advance for your help.

I mean cabin codes such as s1 c2. Thanks!

S1 means Sky Suite 1.

C2 means Concierge Class 2.

There used to be a "code" thread someplace on these forums. Perhaps someone else can direct you. ;)

So there is no printout that would list all cabin codes perhaps starting with least expensive and going up?

I looked on the X website and found these from looking at deck plans. This is for the S class ships. Other classes will probably have less. The biggest difference between codes within a category are deck and location. To know what code goes with what location, you need to look at the specific ship. From X's website, select your ship, then the deck plans. Each cabin is color coded and the legend is at the bottom. Hope this helps!

Sunset Veranda

Family Oceanview

S2 - Sky Suite

S1 - Sky Suite

CS - Celebrity Suite

RS - Royal Suite

PS - Penthouse Suite

Usually inside rooms are the least expensive and suites are the most, but in between them varies by sailing. I've seen A2 (Aqua) cabins sell cheaper than C3 (Concierge), then again, I've seen great deals on Oceanview. Supply and demand rules, so there isn't a 'hard and fast' rule about prices 'in the middle'.

Thanks so much Carole! My name is Carole as well.

Then you must be a super genius!

Perhaps someone knows what a YEY8-PROMO41 code is that is listed on your pre-cruise document and has a $24.95 charge only applied to the third passenger but that has been credited back to 0? The soda package is listed separately so that's not it. I didn't think we had any sort of internet package promo applied and even if so, $24.95 doesn't seem like enough. If no one responds, i'll call TA but CC is usually faster with an answer!

Do not have answer to that....

As for the cabins, if you order a printed brochure from X ( see website) there will be colo coded deck plans and all the codes..they also have deck plans for each ship online,

The Difference Between Stateroom Types, Categories & Guarantees: Demystifying the Stateroom Selection

When booking a cruise you'll inevitably have to decide what type of cabin (aka stateroom) you want.  What's the difference between an inside and an ocean view?  What are all these numbers? G1, B13? Are we playing bingo or going on vacation?  It can be confusing, but it's important to really understand the differences, at least conceptually, so that you not only book the right room for you, but recognize value and see through some promotional gimmicks.  We'll look at the differences between stateroom types  and  categories  and explain other things you'll run into, like guarantee rooms.

Stateroom Types

We'll start here because well, this one is easy.  Stateroom types are the top of the chart if you're thinking about different staterooms hierarchically (a word which, pronouncing correctly may be a deciding factor in future CruiseHabit giveaways).  There are four basic stateroom types (and of course, some outliers).  

Inside Staterooms

Yes, all staterooms are indoors, but this term refers to rooms which don't have a window or balcony (at least, they don't have a window or balcony facing the ocean - more on that later).  More often than not these types of rooms are the cheapest - but don't assume, as we've seen some cases where other categories are cheaper when supply and demand dictate such.  Often inside rooms have mirrors  and extra lights to keep you from feeling too closed in.  In recent years, Royal Caribbean and Disney Cruise Lines have introduced inside rooms with "virtual" portholes or balconies, which use large screens to display real-time views of the outside.  Several lines also have a selection of inside rooms which have port holes or windows facing interior sections of the ship.  Some inside rooms have the bed facing the door, while others have the bed sideways.

Ocean View Staterooms

These rooms (sometimes called "outside rooms") have some sort of window which looks out to the ocean.  Depending on the ship, deck, and other factors this could be a small porthole or two, a large window, or even a floor-to-ceiling window.  Similar to the different layouts of inside rooms, they may have the window(s) behind the beds or next to them - layouts vary. 

Verandah Staterooms 

Call them what you will - verandahs, verandas, or balconies - these are the most common and popular rooms on modern ships.  It wasn't long ago that, for a number of reasons (some of which you can read about here ), a cruise ship might have only a handful of balconies, all located high on the ship.  Now, on some ships, over 95% of the rooms have balconies, and you'd have to work pretty hard to find anyone complaining about this.  Having a balcony gives you the option of enjoying some private deck space at any time, along with great views even when the doors are closed.  You could even use a GoPro to capture great sail-away videos using the proper mount .  Royal Caribbean's Oasis class ships have some verandah rooms that have outdoor balconies, but which don't face the ocean.  These "Neighborhood Verandahs" are unique, and if you're okay with not facing the ocean, can be a neat option.

Do you like painting with a broad brush?  Great - because the last room type we're covering is suites.  This can mean a lot of different things.  On modern ships suites pretty much always feature an ocean-facing balcony (we're sure we'll end up updating this with some exception - and RCI's Freedom Class "Sweets" don't count).  Suites can be similar to but slightly larger than verandah rooms, or they could be palatial multi-story areas with separate entranceways, multiple bedrooms, their own pianos, etc.  In addition to some extra space, suites often come with perks like exclusive lounges and restaurants, butler service, and many things which may cost other guests extra.  How do you differentiate the different types of suites?  I'm so glad you asked - keep reading to find out. 

Stateroom Categories

Discussing categories is important because many people confuse categories with types.  We mentioned above that there are four main stateroom types, but there can be dozens of categories even though so many rooms are so similar.  If you look on deck plans, or at the options when booking a cruise, categories are usually expressed as a letter-number combination, like A12, or V4 - it varies by cruise line.  There are some good reasons for this wide variety of options though, so let's review. 

Imagine you're looking to book a verandah stateroom you may find the best price on a beautiful room and then find that it's really far forward (that's the front of the ship), and as such, may be a bit of a walk to some areas.  It's quite possible that the exact same shape, size, and style of room is available down the hall but more mid-ship, though at a higher cost.  These two rooms are the same stateroom type, but different categories.  You might also find that the rooms directly above or below these rooms are different categories, as often, the higher deck on which you find a room, the higher the category.  This can be important to think about if you're worried about seasickness, as we explain here , rooms midship and on a lower deck can be helpful.  Also consider if you want to consistently walk through a long corridoor each time you come or go.

The view you have can impact the stateroom category as well.  One of the most common reasons you'll find "lower category" rooms classified as such is because of what lines refer to as "obstructed views".  An ocean view room that has an unobstructed view of the water is usually in a higher category than a similar rooms which has it's view obstructed by a lifeboat or other equipment.  Obstructions could be directly in front of a window (or balcony) or off to the side, above, or below it.

Size & Shape

Not surprisingly, the size and shape of rooms can help determine their category.  Until you get into suites, the sizes will remain somewhat similar, but even an extra 20 square feet can be nice, as can certain layouts which allow for a bit more useful area vs dead space.

Window or Verandah Type

We previously mentioned that the exact type and number of windows which an ocean view stateroom has can vary, and this is true of verandah rooms as well.  You'll find rooms with larger windows to be different categories than those with smaller portholes.  The area below railings on some verandahs are glass, providing superior views, while others may have metal horizontal sections or be completely flat metal.  On some ships, there may be rather unconventional windows or doors, like those found in Infinite Verandah staterooms on Celebrity Edge series ships.

Over the past few years some lines have created staterooms which may or may not be considered suites, may in fact be similar or identical to other verandah rooms, but which have some sort of perks.  A common example are rooms which allow free access to otherwise costly areas of the ship's spa.

"Weird Rooms"

You may have already guessed, but this is not a technical term - we'll call it a CruiseHabit term.  While many rooms on ships are nearly identical (in fact, they're modular), there are some rooms which are outliers based on engineering constraints and other factors.  Rooms all the way forward often feature angled walls with different layouts.  Verandah rooms at the aft are frequently sought after for fantastic views from their sometimes much longer balconies.  Other rooms are just plane different in the shape, such as rooms on the corner of ships.  In fact, these rooms often different because of multiple factors, such as size, shape, window type, and location, and more.

Okay, but what are guarantee rooms? 

You may or may not have the option of booking a guarantee - and generally this is a guarantee within a type.  For example, an "Ocean View Guarantee" is a booking which means you won't pick your exact stateroom, but you're guaranteed to be assigned an ocean view room or better.  Some guests hear this and book a guarantee with a hope of an upgrade - and while that can happen, it's rare and you shouldn't bet on this.  Guarantees are usually priced quite a bit lower than a stateroom which you chose yourself, and they're a way for cruise lines to ensure they fill space while still charging other guests a premium for picking the room of their choice. 

It's critical to remember that you're surrendering your choice to the cruise line - so if you book a guarantee and you're assigned a room far from where you'd like, or with an obstructed view, etc, you generally can't do anything about it (though if space is available, you  may  be able to get a random different room of the same type.  If you're okay with this risk, booking a guarantee can be a great way to save some money.  

Watch Out For This 'Upgrade' Sales Technique

Now that you understand how cruise lines establish stateroom types and categories, you should also better understand a sales technique that is used quite often by many lines: the free upgrade.  Sounds great, right?  It can be - but don't get too excited.  These upgrades are usually for a category or two within the same type.  Usually, a line will offer a deal on a sailing where, for example, they'll offer the second lowest category for the same price as the lowest category.  Other times, for certain loyalty programs, guests will receive pricing for a room that is actually the price of the category below the room being priced.

This isn't a scam - it can be a nice perk, but don't get excited when you hear you're getting an upgrade thinking you're going from an inside to an ocean view.  You're likely going from an inside to a slightly nicer inside stateroom or an inside stateroom on deck two to an inside stateroom on deck five.

Final Statement on Staterooms

Ships today have many different stateroom categories, but if your new the to cruise game, it's the stateroom types you should focus on - but no matter what you do, don't put too much importance into picking a cabin.  While it's very subjective, we find nice staterooms nice to have, but not necessary - we just don't spend that much time in out stateroom, even when we have a particularly nice one.  If we can score a better stateroom (category or type) for a small price, then great - but often we're willing to take a more humble room and keep the savings for another cruise.  At the same time, we're frequent cruisers - so if you're looking at a once in a lifetime (or maybe just every few years) trip, then treat yourself with an ocean-facing balcony or even a suite.  The choice is yours.

These Are The Things You Should Never, Ever Do On A Cruise According To Experts

You might be guilty of some of these.

HuffPost Writer

Cruises are many travelers’ preferred way to vacation. They often offer all-inclusive discount packages, and there’s certainly something appealing about getting to visit multiple destinations without having to repeatedly unpack and repack your suitcase.

But the lure of relaxing and letting loose on a mega-ship filled with endless buffets, pools, entertainment spaces and more is not an excuse to throw all sense of etiquette out the window (or overboard). 

“You’re essentially sharing a huge house on water with a large number of people you’ve never seen and perhaps will never see again in your life,”  Jackie Vernon-Thompson , the founder of From the Inside-Out School of Etiquette, told HuffPost. “But your attitude should not be, ‘Oh, I’ll never see them again so I can do whatever I choose.’ There are protocols to follow to ensure you do not cause another guest to have an unpleasant experience.”

With that in mind, we asked etiquette pros like Vernon-Thompson, as well as cruise experts, to share some common rude behaviors you should avoid as a cruise passenger, and what to do instead.

Hogging Chairs

“Passengers known to cruisers as ‘chair hogs’ often leave personal items on chairs to claim them and then disappear for hours,” said Ashley Kosciolek , a senior cruise writer at The Points Guy. “Don’t be one of those people. This goes for anywhere on board, but it largely applies to sun loungers by the pool.”

If you want a prime location at the pool, commit to it. Don’t just wake up early, throw some stuff on your preferred chairs and then go back to bed or have a long, leisurely breakfast before actually using the seats. There are other passengers who would no doubt like to sit in those empty chairs. 

“Additionally, don’t commandeer chairs for family and friends who will join you at an unspecified time in the future,” said  Tami Claytor , the etiquette coach behind Always Appropriate Image and Etiquette Consulting.

Ignoring Health And Hygiene

“Don’t ever use your hands to touch food at the buffet,” Kosciolek said. “This is one of the biggest ways illnesses spread on ships. Use the tongs or other utensils provided.”

If you want to go back to the food stations for seconds, don’t bring your original plate or use your fingers or used table utensils to serve yourself. 

“Use a new plate if you return to the buffet line for an additional serving,” Claytor said. “Step away from the table or buffet line to cough or sneeze. Helping to minimize the spread of germs is invisible good etiquette.”

Don’t forget about handwashing as well, especially after using the restroom. 

“This should be common sense, but you’d be surprised by the number of people I see walking out of the stall and straight out the door,” Kosciolek added. “Always wash your hands.”

Do your part to mitigate the spread of illness on the ship. We’ve all seen the headlines about disease outbreaks on cruises. 

“If you feel ill, remain in your cabin and request a visit from the doctor onboard or go straight to their office,” Vernon-Thompson advised. 

Showing Up Late For Things

“Be on time, especially for shore excursions,” urged  Nick Leighton , an etiquette expert and host of the “Were You Raised by Wolves?” podcast. “Don’t make people wait for you.”

Remember that your lateness affects other people. Crew members might have to put in extra work to make up for the delay, and you can cut into your fellow passengers’ schedules. 

“Whether it’s to dinner, to a spa appointment or returning to the ship from an excursion, it’s inconsiderate to be late,” said cruise expert Stewart Chiron, a.k.a.  “The Cruise Guy.”  “The ship can be delayed departing and then arriving at the next port of call. Cruise lines can also leave you.”

He noted that showing up late to a dinner reservation or spa appointment can throw off the whole schedule for others too.

“Say you timed your spa treatment perfectly to go back to your cabin and continue relaxing before dinner, but the guy before you showed up 45 minutes late and rudely insisted on having his treatment,” Chiron said. “That eats into your time.”

Forgetting About Tipping

“Be sure to read the fine print on tipping when cruising,” said  Jodi R.R. Smith , the president of Mannersmith Etiquette Consulting. “Sometimes tips or partial tips are included. Sometimes certain staff tips are included and others are not.”

That includes “invisible” staff like housekeepers and porters, Smith added.

Err on the side of being generous with your tips if you’re unsure.

“Tipping culture is alive and well on most cruises,” Leighton said. “When in doubt if gratuity has already been included or what an appropriate amount should be, just ask.”

If tipping is going to be an issue for you, reconsider your travel plans. 

“Don’t remove gratuities from your bill,” Kosciolek said. “Hardworking crew ― including people behind the scenes who wash the dishes and do the laundry ― depend on them. Instead, build the cost of tips into your vacation budget so it’s accounted for. If you can’t afford to tip, you can’t afford to cruise.”

Disrespecting Dress Codes

“Even the most casual of cruises has dress codes, so familiarize yourself with what’s appropriate in different areas of the ship and at different times of day,” Leighton said. “While a tuxedo isn’t mandatory on most sailings anymore, rare is the cruise line that is thrilled to have you sipping evening cocktails in the bar with bare feet and a dripping bathing suit.”

Cruise ships typically offer a wide variety of sections and occasions throughout your voyage. Be mindful of your fellow passengers and try to dress appropriately for each context.

“For example, swimwear cover-ups should be worn in all areas outside the immediate vicinity of the pool,” Claytor said. 

Letting Your Kids Run Wild

“Do not allow your children to run screaming down the hallways for fun,” Smith said. “Your fun should not impinge on the enjoyment of others.”

Remember you’re still responsible for your children’s behavior, so if you want to go to the casino or have a child-free dinner, you have to arrange for childcare. You can’t assume other passengers or crew will take care of them. 

“Do not expect the cruise staff to babysit your children,” Claytor said. “Lax supervision in childcare can lead to dangerous and unintended consequences. If you do utilize onboard daycare, remember to respect the closing time. Never arrive late to pick up your child. It is inconsiderate to the staff.”

Chiron recommended setting ground rules before bringing kids onto a cruise. 

“When my wife and I traveled with my kids, we had talks with them, discussions of what they should do and shouldn’t do,” he said. “Some parents just unleash their kids and don’t care what they do, but this can have a negative impact on other people’s hard-earned vacations. I’ve seen kids go into the gym and take those big bouncy balls and put them in the elevator. Or kids running around a restaurant or a pool causing chaos.”

Chiron also emphasized the potential danger in this rude behavior.

“Sometimes parents think it’s an incredibly safe environment and nothing will happen or that the kids won’t misbehave, or there’s nowhere for them to go,” he said. “But we’ve seen kids who thought it was cute to throw deck chairs over the side of the ship, and it’s on video and the parents are held responsible.”

Pushing And Cutting In Line

“While packing your bags, don’t forget to pack a sizable amount of patience and kindness,” Vernon-Thompson said. 

This advice especially applies to unpleasant situations like long lines. Wait your turn. 

“Do not push ahead of others for buffets, shows or excursions,” Smith advised. 

“Let people exit an elevator before you enter,” Claytor added. “Don’t push into a crowded elevator. Don’t push ahead of people who are on line in front of you. Don’t get frustrated if the elevators are full. If possible, use the stairs and let people with mobility issues have first priority of the elevators.”

Similarly, respect people’s space in other situations.

“The hallways are pretty narrow in the cabin areas, so when you see someone coming, walk on one side to ensure you and the other passenger have clearance,” Vernon-Thompson said. 

Treating Staff Poorly

Smile and say thank you to the people working on the ship. Show courtesy and kindness. 

“Be considerate of the crew that cleans your room,” Vernon-Thompson said. “Try not to leave all types of personal items out for them to be subjected to moving it from the bed. Follow the requests and rules of the crew members.”

Remember the staff is working hard to make your vacation safe and enjoyable. 

Getting Too Drunk

“Know your limit of alcohol to prevent awkward or offense interactions with other passengers,” Vernon-Thompson advised.

Getting too drunk on a cruise can also lead to serious accidents and injuries, so crew members take these situations seriously.

“Don’t drink to the point of becoming loud, belligerent and disorderly,” Claytor said. “That behavior makes other people uncomfortable and puts the staff in an awkward position of policing your conduct, which distracts them from catering to the guests who are adhering to the cruise line’s policies.”

Making Excess Noise

“Don’t slam doors, play music on your balcony or otherwise be excessively loud in your cabin,” Kosciolek said. “Cruise ship rooms aren’t soundproof, and it’s nice to have some consideration for your fellow passengers.”

No one wants to spend their vacation listening to your music, show or conversation, so pack headphones. 

“Don’t use speakerphone in common areas, such as poolside, dining areas or theaters,” Claytor said. “It is disruptive to others. I recommend going to a private area or to your cabin. Use your indoor voice in common areas such as hallways. Respect in-cabin quiet time.”

Being Inconsiderate Of Fellow Passengers

“First and foremost, on a cruise, no matter how big the boat may seem, you will see the same people over and over again,” Smith said. “Be sure to behave appropriately.”

Smile and say hello to people and be considerate in communal spaces. 

“Some people go to the gym and hog the equipment and then don’t wipe it down,” Chiron said. “Or they’ll add their own bubbles to the jacuzzi.”

Cruises come with many opportunities for mingling, so try to be a pleasant conversationalist. 

“Don’t talk about your loyalty status if nobody asks you,” Kosciolek said. “We get it. You’ve been on TONS of cruises, but that doesn’t mean everyone needs to know about it. Bragging is tacky, and nobody likes a one-upper.”

She also advised against bringing up politics or religion at meals with people you’ve just met.

“If you have set seating, you might find yourself sharing a table with other cruisers,” Kosciolek said. “Vacation is not the time to bring up touchy subjects since you don’t know where your new friends stand. Instead, talk about other interests, where you’re from or what you plan to do in port the next day.”

Do your best to de-escalate tense situations and refrain from engaging in arguments. Similarly, respect those who aren’t interested in mingling with you. 

“Keep in mind, not everyone is looking to make a new friend,” Claytor said. “Be mindful of social cues. Don’t get offended if fellow voyagers fail to reciprocate your attempts at striking up a conversation.”

Smoking Outside Designated Areas

“Only smoke in the designated smoking areas,” Claytor emphasized.

In addition to limiting your smoking to the places where it’s permitted, pay attention to your surroundings.

“Always be aware of the direction of the smoke,” Vernon-Thompson said. “If it is going into an area where people exist, shift your position.”

Throwing Things Overboard

Throwing things overboard is not just rude ― it’s a serious rule violation. Those who disregard this rule will be subject to fines and potentially barred from traveling with the cruise line in the future. 

“Don’t throw garbage overboard,” Claytor said. “Courtesy should not only extend to people but also to the environment. Remember to properly dispose of all trash.”

She also advised against hanging your clothes on your balcony railing to dry. 

“Resist the urge to hang wet items on the balcony,” Claytor said. “These items may blow in to the ocean or on to the balcony of another cabin.”
