Apparently there are the swinging door arrangement and the sliding door arrangement. Beyond that there are probably "left" and "right" versions - whether the stateroom entrance is on the left of the living space or the right. From the sliding door table, it appears the port and starboard PV cabins are mirror images. So let's see, on the port side there are the two door arrangements, and two handed (left or right) arrangements which makes four different layouts, then the mirror images on the starboard side of the ship, but those would be topologically the same as cabins on the port side.

Aren't you glad you asked?

Thanks for the details! 🙂

Here's a door version. Opens inward. Sorry not tidy. Call it well lived in after 13 days. 

 

Thank you very much!

I don't think there is any "standard" PV room (Penthouse Veranda).  There are ones with doors and ones with sliders.  Here again is the list of rooms with sliders.  If yours is not on this list, you have a door/window.

When I said standard PV, I meant one with a door not a slider. Are there different window/door combinations throughout the ship even within the PV category?

Looks like we will be joining you!  We just made a provisional booking!!  I am so excited. Now I need a house/dog sitter for nearly five months.

It looks like we will be joining you too!  What enhancements are they planning for the Star for the WC?

Hi Cabogal.  Very good question, one which we wonder about as well.

We are also currently schedule on this October Lisbon to Miami (we are also on the previous Rome to Lisbon portion).   We are torn about whether to hold out or not or take the money at the 120 day mark.   I try to be positive but I just can't see how the cruise will happen.   And even if it did, would it even be any good?  Certainly the portions on the ship would be, but I seriously wonder if many of the ports will even be open, especially Lisbon, Spain, France, and Italy.   It would become a very expensive hotel at sea for us.   If we stay the course and wait, Viking could I think keep the cruise open, but just not stop anywhere.  For us that would not be worthwhile.   I toy with the idea of cancelling and then doing this cruise at a later date (but it is not offered in 2021 so would have to pick a different transatlantic).   Decisions decisions....

Hi CCWineLover, we are also on this cruise from Lisbon to Miami but we are not sure if it will happen or if we will want to go. We have the 24 hr risk free guarantee so even if we wait until the last minute we are supposed to get our money back or a voucher and we have several other cruises booked even into 2022! I hope that they cancel it if we cannot go to ports.  Like you said I don't even know if we will be able to go to Lisbon in October.
