Quick google search brings up multiple results. Maybe one of these will work out for you:

Our first cruise was on the Pride and we had an extended aft balcony and loved it. We've also been on the Miracle and the Freedom and we find that we prefer the smaller Spirit class ships. It was much easier to navigate. The aft extended balcony is all we have ever done as we fell in love with it. I love the view you get from the back of the ship, but am up for saving a few hundred in lieu of the view.

The site has been a little mucked up today.
I chose 1 deck and it showed cabins from 3 different decks. Weird.
Good luck getting what you want.
When are you going?
We're doing the June 2, 2013 cruise to Freeport, Grand Turk and the private island (forget the name). It was kind of a last minute thing. Glad I waited as it looks like we'll be getting a $350 OBC along with Past Guest Pricing due to a VIFP special.
Would love the bowling alley balcony, but my guess is it's probably booked. It's just me and my wife, but I like space.

I went back into the booking engine and its odd. If I select Balcony as an option, that room shows up. It also shows up if Premium Balcony is chosen and with an extra charge.

It's weird because when I book, it states its a premium balcony. When I google premium balcony, and when I look on carnivals site, premium balcony rooms appear larger in the pictures and have granite countertops. I'm going to talk to the PVP tonight and see.
The attached picture is off of Carnival's website. That room is definitely bigger than the Extended Balcony Aft's I've had.

We've been on three cruises and each one we have gotten an Aft extended balcony which we loved. This go around, we are thinking of saving a couple hundred and going with a premium Balcony (7341). I have read conflicting reports sayign that the premiums are bigger, but the square footage seems the same at 185. Does anyone have reliable info and pictures on what a premium balcony is on the Pride? I am going to be booking this evening.
Again, we loved the views on the Aft extended, but I'm willing to save a couple hundred if there is something more compelling in getting a Premium Balcony in the aft section of the ship.
Thanks!

I've only cruised on Carnival, but have had the pizza on three different ships. Pizza probably makes up the majority of my diet. The Carnival pizza is pretty good IMO.
The sad part is that the quality varies from ship to ship.
Pride: The first slice I got was pretty bad. It was a greasy mess and very bland. I went back later and got some fresh slices and it was wonderful. The crust was a nice thin crust with good flavor. Pizza was cooked well. Subsequent trips were just as good.
Miracle: Pretty much same as the Pride, but it was definitely better. They key here was every time I went for pizza, I waited for fresh out of the oven which will certainly have an effect.
Freedom: Awful. Every time I got a slice, whether it was fresh or had been sitting, it was not cooked enough. It also seemed like the "chef" was skimping on the sauce as the slices were lacking in any type of red indicating sauce was on the slice. The chef also seemed to appear like he did not care to be there and was extremely unfriendly. Not uncommon to see lines here though. I really don't think this guy was normally a pizza guy, perhaps he was put there as punishment.
In your opinion which cruise line/ship has the best pizza?

Glad I could help! They key to a good pizza is very high heat - get a pizza stone or some clay tiles for the oven. You can also find great recipes at pizzamaking.com by going through their forums.
