Its not cloaking, but wether or not the search engines will think its alright will depend on how you do the redirect.
google has a hardon for what they call “sneaky” redirects.
Make sure that the user is aware that they are being redirected to a new page.
To ensure your inocent redirect is not taken as something else, make sure you use a 301 permanent redirect as oposed to a 302 (temporarily). You may also want to make that page unaccesable to SEs, you can do this by blocking them through your robots.txt.
