Sky Aft Balcony vs. Owner's Suite

Recommended Posts

Have read a lot about both. Can someone tell me what the major differences are? I read about getting things like sodas, juices, water, 3 bottles of alcohol, but I can't tell what you get at each level and what is free vs. fee. FYI - 4 day cruise.

The owners suite is also larger in size with a hot tub on the balcony. If you book the owners suite, make sure you get the 8th deck suites. The 9th deck do not have full size hot tubs.

So the difference is really size of the suite and location. Owners suites are front and penthouse is aft. Plus owners suite gives you a few more bottles of alcohol. There are videos of each suite on youtube. You just have to decide if the price differnence is worth the extra space and alcohol :)

The biggest difference is the balcony does not get the suite perks. We sailed in the Owners Suite on the Sky and the cabin is HUGE! The balcony had a jacuzzi and it has tons of room to kick back and relax. The owners suite has two bathrooms, a bar, more closet space than you would ever need, a living room and dining area. You can dine in your suite from any restaurant, just let your butler know. You do get 3 bottles of alcohol free, plus champagne in your cabin on embarkation day, appetizers or desserts brought to your cabin daily, priority disembarkation at ports, breakfast and lunch in Cagneys and more but that's all I can remember right now. If you sail in the owners suite you also have a special check in at the port and you will get a personal escort onto the ship and taken to Cagneys for lunch. No lines! :D

Hi Jolly

The penthouse and Owners suite on the Sky get the same perks except the amount of alcohol and water in the cabin.

The penthouse gets a bottle of champagne, water. But the suites are equal with all other perks.

The way I read the OP's initial question was balcony vs O'S... Not PH.

Yes thats the way I read it too. So wouldn't that mean the differences were a lot

shower vs whirlpool tub

small vs large (3-4x the size)

OS - dining table & separate bedroom

non-suite perks vs suit perks

etc.

The OP post's does ask what the difference is from the Sky Aft Blacony vs. Owners Suite. I don't see anywhere where the OP ask's about a Penthouse.
