zumbagold Posted November 27, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I’m looking to book a balcony. Never been on the ship. Advice as to location? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MommaBear55 Posted November 27, 2023 #2 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Any location except deck 6, as most balcony cabins on deck 6 are obstructed. We like deck 9 or 10 midship 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatka Posted November 27, 2023 #4 Share Posted November 27, 2023 We just returned from our #10 on her. If picking balcony I recommend 10 - 12 midship to avoid any possibility of obstruction any directions including beneath. (Lifeboats) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starry Eyes Posted November 27, 2023 #5 Share Posted November 27, 2023 (edited) I think you have been given good advice above. Nevertheless I will add that on some sailing on that class ship, the obstructed balconies (or guarantee balcony bookings that may be assigned obstructed balcony categories) can be much less expensive. While not optimal, people in obstructed balconies still have a private space with sea air and a view when standing (the degree of obstruction varies). If perchance budget becomes an issue for you or others reading this thread, with the correct attitude an enjoyable cruise can be had in an obstructed balcony on deck 6. Deck 6 would be a convenient deck. Edited November 27, 2023 by Starry Eyes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare little britain Posted November 27, 2023 #6 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Avoid anywhere in the 6676/7676 area as this is right above the bus shelter. ( smokers area) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine3601 Posted November 27, 2023 #7 Share Posted November 27, 2023 We love deck 6 as it is convenient to walk down/up to deck 4 or 5 to the promenade, two70 and dining rooms. We have had some nice balconies and JS on deck 6. Not all cabins are obstructed but even some that are sold as obstructed have great views.

Beer Belly Posted November 27, 2023 #8 Share Posted November 27, 2023 We booked 10580, wanted to be near to elevators and stairs, prefer more mid-ship, at the time, best we could get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruise a holic Posted November 28, 2023 #10 Share Posted November 28, 2023 We like cabins above and below- not far from elevators- I like deck 9- facing ocean . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riviera Posted November 28, 2023 #11 Share Posted November 28, 2023 FYI:Last year we were on deck 6 quite near the theater. Lots of loud music during “ we will rock you” shows & rehearsals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
