Best way to get a Cat 3?

[HappyLawyer]

i also found out due to the great people here that some cat 3 are larger then others, even have bigger verandahs, someone sent me pics and the number so i called up and requested it.

Thanks for all your replies. I called allseasons and got my Cat 3 for the April 22, 2006 cruise. Now, I just have to worry about paying for it.

Does anyone have any pics of a Cat 3 that is not a handicap room? I saw one on DCLtribute and castaway but would like to see some more to make sure it's worth the thousands of dollars

That's who we used too. They have been great. I have changed dates a number of times and each time they were able to secure me a midship Cat. 3. We have 8034 for our December 2006 cruise.

Please don't laugh, roll your eyes, or sigh! What's the big deal with Cat. 3 rooms, are they the best on the ship? We finished our land & sea a few weeks ago, TA never stressed importance of picking a Cat. Please enlighten me? We just had an inside stateroom Deck 6. Hoping for a verandah if I can swing a 7 day western in 2007.Any suggestions?

On our cruise, I had a Cat. 4 and my parents had a Cat 3. We were right down the hall from one another. The Cat 4 was fine for my family. We were in the room very little and I would not pay more for a suite.

However, it was a special occasion and my parents are used to luxury, so it was nice for them. Plus, there was room for a lot of us to gather in there for chats if we wanted.

I have a small photo album of a Midship Cat. 3 (8034). If you want to see it, PM your regular e-mail address to me.

There are some good pictures of Cat 3 staterooms on the DCL DVD!

We secured our March, 2006 Cat 3 stateroom when we sailed this past September, 2004. The booking agent on board the Magic (Donna) faxed our request for us. When the 2006 dates/rates were announced in October, DCL called with our reservation. We even received our $200 onboard rebooking credit. Very nice!

Afoss...Fax your request now. Chances are very good that you are not too late! Good luck.

Happy Sailing, everyone!

Yes, the DCL DVD has pictures of Cat. 3's, but they're Midship ones, not Regular Cat. 3s. There is a BIG difference between the two (the mid-ship Cat. 3 has a triple wide balcony, bigger living room, and the pull-down bed is in the living room -- the regular one is a double wide, smaller living space, and the pull-down is in the master bedroom). I just don't want anyone to be upset if their suite doesn't look like the one on the DVD.
