wesail7seas Posted July 28, 2011 #1 Share Posted July 28, 2011 We just received our cabin assignation for an August 23rd sailing on Royal Caribbean's Brilliance of the Sea. Oh yes,they upgraded us by one category.Now we have a balcony with a 50% obstructed view. And basically,they tell us,that's the chance we take with a "guaranteed" cabin-there is nothing that can be done. So beware when you are booking a "guaranteed" cabin.You might get a better cabin with a lousy view.:mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted July 28, 2011 #2 Share Posted July 28, 2011 How much $$$ did you save by booking the gty?? That would go a long ways for me in making the view just fine. I love saving money. If you really want that other balcony, its probably not too late to pay for picking your cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted July 28, 2011 #3 Share Posted July 28, 2011 The "obstructions" (if it's one of the last cabins aft) is the window washing ladder. It obstructs nothing. Yes, you will see it, but you'll stop noticing it after a few mins. Don't worry too much about this! We booked one of those cabins (last one available!!!) and stressed about it....for absolutely no reason! It's all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesail7seas Posted July 28, 2011 Author #4 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Yes,it is one of the last cabins aft. Thanks cb.You made us feel better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesail7seas Posted July 28, 2011 Author #5 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Hey Firefly,Well we booked late because of circumstances,and there are no other cabins with a balcony. But you're right - no need stressing about the view when there is a whole ship to enjoy. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. Twice Iv done OV obstructed on RCL and it just adds things to look at in the view to me. Never bothered me. (yea i know you have a balcony, but obstructed isnt that bad). Iv done some last minute bookings myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
