Cabin 9475 · Carnival Magic

Cabin 9475 is a Premium Vista Balcony (category 9C1) on Carnival Magic, 230 square feet plus a private balcony of 85 square feet.

Cabin 9475 is a Premium Vista Balcony on Deck 9 of Carnival Magic. You are well aft. Out at this end you feel the sea. In rough water the movement here is noticeably stronger. This far aft you may also pick up a hum from the propellers, usually at night when the ship is making speed between ports. Some people never notice it, others find it soothing, a few cannot ignore it. We score it 3 out of 10 for steadiness. If you are at all prone to seasickness, look elsewhere.

We give it 10 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about, 7 out of 10.

Of the 148 cabin positions on Deck 9, this is the 147th from forward. That puts you right at the aft end of the run, where the corridor stops and the footfall dies away.

The Premium Vista Balcony grade runs 230 square feet. The balcony adds another 85 on top of that. A balcony buys you outside space of your own and, on sea days, somewhere to sit that is not the pool deck. It is the step up most people make, and the one they find hardest to give up again.

Against the rest of the ship it is as quiet as anything on board, livelier in a swell than most of them and better placed for getting around than 98 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers. It is a poor fit for anyone who feels motion badly.
