Stefanosthecruiselover Posted September 3, 2017 #1 Share Posted September 3, 2017 I have the opportunity to upgrade to an Extended Balcony (7162) on the Carnival Pride for free. Should I go with it? I am worried about the lifeboats partially blocking our view. They would be 2 decks below us. I currently have a normal balcony on deck 6 aft (6236).I have the opportunity to upgrade to an Extended Balcony (deck 7) on the Carnival Pride for free. Should I go with it? I currently have a normal balcony on deck 6 aft. I am worried about the lifeboats, that would be 2 deck below us, partially blocking our view.

n6uqqq Posted September 3, 2017 #2 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Take the extended balcony. You will still be able to see the water below past the life boats. Think of the dream class ships where most of the balconies look down on the promenade deck. The view is better on the extended on the Pride.

Uctalum01 Posted September 4, 2017 #5 Share Posted September 4, 2017 don't worry too much about the lifeboats being 2 decks below. I've been in one of the obstructed view balconies on deck 5 of the Pride with the life boats right there and I'd do it again. I'd have to dig through my memory cards to see if I have a photo from the balcony. couldn't find one on my phone, but it was easy to look beyond the life boats and still have a fantastic view.

We usually book a standard cabin AFT, but we wanted to try an Ext. balcony. I loved, loved it. DH liked it. Same sq. footage on the interior, but balcony was much roomier....go for it!!!

shoppingfever Posted February 16, 2018 #8 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Anyone have suggested extended balcony cabin numbers for the Pride? Deck 6, 7, or 8? Also, any to stay away from because of life boats or the extended part of the next set of cabins? Thank you in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you in advance! 6232 ( 4 person room ) and 7258 and 8232 are the cream of the crop triple length balcony. You have to book these rooms way in advance as they sell fast.
