michelle2 Posted September 15, 2005 #1 Share Posted September 15, 2005 I'm 54 days out and just found my room number. I booked a 8A guarantee and so far it looks like we got a 9A! I found my room number using the BookModify method. Does anyone have details about this room category? It looks like it is a little larger than a standard balcony. What a great upgrade!

cruise-wife Posted September 16, 2005 #2 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Don't know about Spirit class 9A's, but we had one on the Victory which is Destiny class. The cabin is MUCH larger OR the balcony is much larger with a somewhat larger room depending on the location of your cabin. You will be very pleased.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idors8 Posted September 16, 2005 #3 Share Posted September 16, 2005 We are booked on the Legend leaving Sept. 26 in a 9A. Here is a virtual tour of the room. I can't personally vouch for it but it looks very nice and it is bigger than a standard balcony room. The balcony is bigger also. There are only 8 of those rooms on the ship, 2 each on 4 decks. Just so you know, the two 9A rooms on the Upper deck (5241 & 5243) have partially obstructed views. http://www.cruisesupport.com/travel/cruises/virtual_tour_popup.jsp?path=/images/360/mgi/817/LE/deluxe2041_mj.ivr&mediatype=5&shipname=Carnival%20Legend&accommodation_id=&category=&desc=Deluxe%20Ocean-view%20w/Large%20Balcony%20(Category%209A) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GottaLuvCruising Posted September 16, 2005 #4 Share Posted September 16, 2005 We booked a balcony guarantee on the Spirit Hawaii cruise last year and were upgraded to a 9A. We were thrilled! Our room was larger that a standard balcony stateroom - almost L-shaped and the extra room just felt more spacious. It wasn't until we visited a dinner companion's stateroom that we realized how much larger ours actually was. Our bathroom felt smaller than they usually are (or maybe we've gotten bigger :( ). Our balcony was HUGE. I'd estimate that is was 10 ft x 8 ft. And we loved it. Particularly for Hawaii, where the weather is always perfect, the balcony was wonderful. I have three pictures I can email if you'd like to see them. Just email me at gottaluvcruising@earthlink.net and let me know if you want all three at once, or just one at a time.

barbemm Posted September 16, 2005 #5 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I'm 54 days out and just found my room number. I booked a 8A guarantee and so far it looks like we got a 9A!

Hi, I had a 9A on the Spirit..There are the l shaped ones and the regular ones. We had the regular shaped one. It is about 6 feet wider than a regular cabin and so is the balcony. Has a few extra chests of drawers and had a very nice hutch where the desk area is. I liked the size of the cabin, but I am not fond of aft cabins and since this cabin was aft we never booked it again. I try to book more mid ship and prefer to book cat 11's...but a 9 is definitely bigger than an 8...enjoy your upgrade. Barb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
