Does anyone have a copy of the menu for the Haven restaurant? I found numerous ones online but they are nearly impossible to read. Thanks--

I am Platinum Plus and my sister, who is sharing my cabin, is not.  She will be able to board with me.

Thanks, Turtles! It would not have appealed to me on my previous cruises, when you could still smoke on the balcony (and when I was not traveling solo, as I will be on this one). Since you can't do that anymore, I don't expect to be spending as much time out there. Plus I like to sit out there in my nightshirt (!) in the morning, having coffee so more privacy is better! I know from experience how cold it is on sailaway and for the first day or so when leaving from NY in the winter. So a partially enclosed balcony will certainly help with that.

Thanks, MusterDrill for your take on it. I could not find any pictures of one on the Gem, just the Jade. So I was wondering if the Gem's were the  same. I see your point but I'm thinking I might like it for the privacy and to be able to be out there more on a cold weather trip out of NY. It's probably pretty hot though, once you are down in the caribbean. Still thinking it over.

It's been a couple of years since I have been on NCL. Looking at a cabin that only has another cabin on one side of it. It lists as a partially covered balcony. What does that mean exactly? Does anyone have a picture of one? I assume this is the result of some of the upgrades on the ship. Thanks in advance.
