My wife and I just returned from the 3/17/08 Hawaiian cruise which was fantastic - except we booked a premium suite C755 and Princess failed to tell us that the view through the bedroom slider was obstructed by a 2 1/2 ft. support strut. Worse the base of the strut and its placement 3 ft. in from the side and half way between the railing and the slider effectively reduced by half the useful part of our deck. We visited friends in a vista suite D739 which cost less had the same floor plan and a deck that was twice as deep, just as wide and w/o a strut. To use our deck we had to move the chair around the table when we came outside because the space was reduced so much. I believe all premium suites on the aft portion of the ship have narrower than expected decks.
