perkygirl Posted November 20, 2005 #1 Share Posted November 20, 2005 Are the baclonies on Adventure of the Seas all glass like the Navigator? If I am doing the Southern route which side of the ship is better, port or starboard? Which balcony cabins are in a very good location? Hump, forward or aft? If I am doing the Western route which side of the shipis better, port or starboard? still trying to make up my mind!! looks like it will be a balcony Adventure vs Navigator.

family cruisers Posted November 20, 2005 #2 Share Posted November 20, 2005 Hello... We had a hump balcony on the explorer of the seas. It was totally private with metal all around. Only way you could see your neighbors was to look over the railing but then you couldn't really see into their balcony, only if they were also looking over the railing. Hope this helps.

TxKroozer Posted November 20, 2005 #4 Share Posted November 20, 2005 We recall the balconies on the Mariner, like the Adventure to be glass on the side rail so you can see through them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKeeganS Posted November 20, 2005 #5 Share Posted November 20, 2005 I believe on deck 6 on the AOS, the balconies are all steel with the wooden railing. On decks 7 and higher, the bottoms are steel with a 2 foot glass panel at the top so you can see when seated on the balcony. We have stayed in cabins 6230 and 7230, which are forward. What we like about them is they are in front of the lifeboats so you can see straight down to the water. I assume you would have a similar view from a hump cabin.

Luv4dacruise Posted November 20, 2005 #6 Share Posted November 20, 2005 Out of the 5 Voyager class ships, the first 3 to be built (VOS, EOS and AOS) have metal balconies. The latter 2 (NOS and MOS) have glass. The Adventure is metal..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't tell from the view of the deck plans on the website. Thanks! this will be my 2nd cruise and DH-to-be's first.

luckyprincess Posted November 20, 2005 #8 Share Posted November 20, 2005 I just booked the Navigator with a balcony. Are you saying I'm going to be able to be constantly viewed by the people next to me? They said it was a private balcony! Also, can anyone above see me? I'm on 1610 on the 10th deck. Help!!!

love2vacation Posted November 20, 2005 #9 Share Posted November 20, 2005 On the Explorer the sides (dividers) between the next door balconies were made from a white corrugated material edged in metal. You would have to lean way out and stick your head around to see in the balcony next to you. I figured this was pretty private. You could hear others out on their balcony but not see them! The font part of the balcony- looking out to the ocean had a wood railing and the bottom part was clear Plexiglas. Because of this, we had an awesome view of the sea from inside, as well as outside. The Navigator is a sister ship to the Explorer so it would probably be the same:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKeeganS Posted November 21, 2005 #10 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I think on the AOS and the EOS, the front portion of the balconies looking out toward sea contain more metal than those on the later Explorer class ships. I don't think the dividers between the balconies changed. If you are leaning against the railing of the balcony, you can see people doing the same to either side of you or directly below you. However, if you are seated on your balcony, it is pretty private (unless someone does lean around the divider). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
