That's the thing, it doesn't say if the cabins are available. For balcony decks 9-11, the only option is to pick a guaranteed cabin that will be assigned later. I just came back from a cruise today and want to plan another one to have it to look forward to, so we're in the early stages of planning. I looked at cruises in October, December, and next April and it was the same for all of them...I couldn't pick specific balcony rooms on those decks.
