Chairs in room?

[Lindanuf]

We have an ocean view balcony on our upcoming symphony cruise and see the 2 chairs on the balcony.  We have 3 people in our room and are wondering if the is a chair at the desk inside so we can have 3 chairs on the balcony?

There is a chair at the desk.  It is small enough to carry out. With the furniture already out it might be tight, but you can probably make it work.

Thank you

You can also ask your stateroom attendant for an extra chair for the balcony.  If they can fit it, this would be better than using a chair that is not designed to be outside.

Rarely will all of you be on the balcony at the same time.  Just bring the vanity chair back inside when not in use!

I know. I'm tilting at windmills here but ... How could you possibly know how much time they intend to spend on their balcony, or how often it will be all 3 if them? [emoji849]

We put the upholstered chair from a JS outside on Brilliance.  Very nice

You know you'll never get a response.

That little vanity chair on Symphony has a back that is about 6 inches tall.  If you have a jr suite you will have a arm chair.

My husband and I love spending time on the balcony and if we’re out there I can guarantee our 7 year old will be out there too.

Maybe a blow up chair is in order

But if we left it out it might blow away.  We’ll just bring the vanity chair out.

Which could get soaked if they wash the balconies.

[brillohead]

Ask the cabin steward to bring you one of the little Adirondack chairs from around the kiddie pool!

Not really their problem.  If they choose to wash the balconies so indiscriminately as to soak an upholstered chair, they’ll surely remedy the situation.  If I had left a chair out there and I came back to find it soaked from a cleaning, I would contact my room steward or guest services and have it replaced promptly.

They don't indiscriminately wash the balconies. On Adventure 2 weeks ago we received a note in our stateroom one night that they would be washing balconies the next day and that we should not leave anything out there.

I get that. But unless it’s completely automated, they should still be checking to see what is on the balcony.

Why not just ask your steward for a proper chair to sit outside rather than risk ruining a piece of furniture. After all, we’re not talking about Carnival here.

So the process would be to check every cabin that are being washed for what is on those balcony's.  They will then need to check on the balcony's below the cabins that are actually being washed. 

 

There are drains on balcony's that may or may not drain on a lower cabin balcony.  While it may easy to see a person on a balcony from a higher level.

 

To do this they will need to knock on many doors, with no guarantee they have reached everyone.  

 

I am not sure what is the surface covering is for the vanity chairs, but there could be a fire risk,  see the Princess ship that had it's balcony's catch on fire.  They were surprised that the fire moved through the balcony dividers as they had a very, very, high flash point.
