That makes at least 2 of us 😁

 

I'm an oddball.  I want a cabin with a bed and at least a portal.  Won't pay extra for balcony, although I've taken them when they are all that's available or at the same price for one reason or another. I'm rarely in my cabin.  I'm out and about all day and evening and up late in the casino at night.  The cabin is a place to sleep.  I'm an early riser and my husband likes to sleep in, and he also snores, so on ships that have spas, I get a spa pass and go when they open and do my lounging and showering there.  I rarely spent any time on any balcony we've had.

It never occurred to me that anyone would book a cabin  (other than a guarantee) without first checking the deck plans!

As for the balcony , I've never had any expectation of complete privacy when out on one, whether its on a ship or on a building. Of course you can see and be seen if you're at the railing. If you're that shy, stay further back, closer to the wall.

When we booked our January 2020 Summit cruise, I looked to make sure there was no cabin across the hall (to cut down on congestion if everyone is leaving their cabins at once) and I checked to make sure it was cabins above and below.  That's it.  I didn't realize it was a hump/slant cabin until about a week later when I was talking to my sister about her cruise on the Summit this October to see if we had the same rooms.  So it is possible for people not to realize the actual outside location of the cabin when booking.

Well of course it's possible- if you don't bother to look at the deck plans. They provide the deck plans for a reason.

Thank you for your snarky reply.  You are the just the kind of person that makes me not want to even come to this site let alone comment.  I did look at the deck plan, but didn't pay attention to the "contour" of the side of the ship.  Relax and try to be friendlier.

If you would have read ChelleBee's post, you would have seen that she did look at the deck plan.  She checked for what was important to her at the time.

I'm sure you don't mean to sound condescending, but your posts do come off that way.
