Balcony Room On The Pride

[CRUISIN IKE]

Has anybody had a balcony room,7a category with an obstructed view? We were told when we sat down we would see ocean, the only time we would see the lifeboats would be when we stood up and looked down. Can anyone verify this information?:confused:

Those are ok you can see out ok, the deck of the balcony is flush with the top of the Life Boat, only 6a which is a deck below will have the lifeboats in front of you.

THANK YOU FOR THE INFORMATION, MY HUSBAND IS DRIVING ME CRAZY, HE CAN'T RECONCILE 7A WITH ROOMS 5166 & 5168. WE'VE BEEN ON TWO CRUISES AND THIS TIME HIS COUSINS ARE COMING WITH US AND HE WANTS THEM TO ENJOY THEMSELVES TO THE HILT AS THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ON A VACATION FOR 15 YRS. PERSONALLY I WOULD GO CRAZY!

THANKS AGAIN-CRUSIN IKE & SANDY:cool::cool:

BON VOYAGE

the lifeboat at that balcony is a 7A above is a 8 which they cant look downand see water either

 

the cabins you mentioned at connecting cabins. You can also open the divider on the balcony and making onelong balony. To do that visit the pursers desk as soon as you board. Only a limit amount of dividers can be opened. (both people from both cabins need to be present

Well... I don't know about seeing out when sitting down. I believe the top of the lifeboats come to the top of the railing... anyone have pics...?

When we were on the Pride with my aunt and uncle, we were next door to them. We were able to have the dividers opened between the balconies and it was really nice. You will enjoy having this open. Makes for a nice big balcony and you don't need to go into the hall to get to each other's rooms.
