The Central Sea Terrace is one of Virgin's most-booked cabins. Cabin 9282Z delivers it from a midship, starboard side position on Deck 9.
Midship stability meets oceanfront living in these thoughtfully positioned cabins. You'll find yourself perfectly centered between dining venues and entertainment decks, making every ship experience just an elevator ride away. The terrace catches both sunrise and sunset beautifully, while the cabin's adaptive lighting system shifts from energizing daylight to intimate evening ambiance. Smart storage solutions keep your space uncluttered and zen.
About the cabin number itself: the letter at the end of every Central Sea Terrace tells you which side of the ship you're on. A-suffixed cabins sit on the port side (left, facing forward); Z-suffixed cabins sit on the starboard side (right). Cabin 9282Z ends in Z, so it’s a starboard-side cabin — its mirror twin 9282A is the identical layout on port.
What makes 9282Z specific is its placement. Midship is the steadiest stretch of the ship — the smart pick if motion matters to you. Deck 9 sets your elevator distance to dining and the pool deck. the "Z" suffix puts you on the starboard side (right, facing forward). One cabin-specific detail: it has the forward elevators practically at the door. Prefer to compare the whole category? See every Central Sea Terrace cabin →
Bed position can make or break a cabin. Here's exactly how it sits inside 9282Z and what's on either side of you when you sleep.
| Bed configuration | Sleeps | Convertible |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Queen (2 Twins) | 2 | Yes — at no extra charge |
Cabin 9282Z's bed runs forward-to-aft, feet toward the stern — you open your eyes facing back over the ship's wake. The bed is set toward the cabin door, so most of the open walking room falls on the terrace side — handy for dressing, storing bags, or slipping past without waking a sleeping partner. The 1 Queen layout converts to 2 Twins at no extra cost — ask for the configuration when you book.

The Central Sea Terrace is an upgraded mid-ship balcony category with extra interior space. On every ship in the fleet, 9282Z sits on Deck 9, midship and on the starboard side — within steps of the elevators. Here’s where Cabin 9282Z sits on the Deck 9 plan.
