Voyager Class and Aft Cabin Soot

[train]

We have Mariner's #9690 booked but wanted to get any updates on soot problems with the aft cabins.  I searched around CC and the internet and found conflicting reports:  some say do not book an aft, some say they had no problem with the Voyager class aft balconies and soot. Has anyone had any recent experiences good or bad?

The soot varies based on engine operations, prevailing wind, etc.   One cruise can have no soot reported at all, and the next cruise can get a bunch of soot complaints.

Have had 1388 on Navigator and no problems with soot.   But as Bob said, can vary for every cruise.

We had daily problems on Indy! 😮

No soot problems in Mariner 9392 in September. 

 

However like other's have or will point out the wind direction relative to the ship when they incinerate or clean the scrubbers plays a major role.  Maybe I just got lucky.

Thanks all!

We had a 2 bedroom aft  suite on the Adventure and never had any problems with soot.

Soot not a problem. .....superstructure extends 20ft past balcony rail ( deck 9 not so much) , i love aft, avoid these.
