Cabin choice advice for an RCI newbie

[tinsoldier]

Hi - been on P&O a couple of times but looking at a 7 night trip on Navigator of the Seas from Southampton. Was interested to see cost of virtual balcony cabins but the RCI website didn't give me the option of booking a 'J' grade cabin - does that mean they are all sold out? We were looking at May 2107 so seems unlikely they are all sold already. If we can't get a VB we were thinking of an OV right at the front of the ship on deck 7 (grade 'I') which overlooks the Helipad. Anyone had any experience of these cabins? Anything we should be aware of?

 

Thanks

I was looking online, and saw the VB available. I've never been in one since the did the remodel, but I've been in a Promenade cabin on Navigator several years back and really liked it, I imagine the VBs are nice too. Navigator is a great ship, you'll love her!

Were you looking on the .com website? I'm using the .co.uk website and definitely can't see any VB's available to book. Glad to hear you enjoyed navigator

I have been inside a VB just to look around. You lose the two seat love seat and get only one small club chair. And that chair is sort of in front of the "balcony". I wouldn't book one. I would much prefer an oceanview.
