I'm a bit concerned after looking at this photo of the Cabana mini suites located in the top half of the sphere.  It appears that the balcony glass goes up much higher than in a standard balcony cabin.  This is a deal breaker for us if we cant get fresh air in our faces, and we are booked in one of these cabins for the Sun on Aug 3rd.   Does anyone know if this is the case?  Thanks much

To me it looks as though the balcony is the same height as the normal ones but the bottom of the glass extends further down into the deck below meaning the gap between the two floors is smaller but you shouldn’t need to be on tip toes to see over the glass. No doubt it’s this way to make the sphere more apparent. Obviously only an assumption until the ship is launched.

 

Edit - looking again it seems the sphere balconies are the same as the normal balconies but there’s glass instead of the metal superstructure at the floor of the normal balconies. Hope this makes sense.

I agree with @Geoffa30. If you zoom in on this pic it looks like the top of the balcony's line up but the glass extends down past the white steel structure to keep the look of the "sphere"

The rake at the electronic Holdem tables on cruise ships is much higher than the typical Vegas casino. 

And the game moves much faster without the dealing or counting of chips. They are cleaning up on the hold'em table compared to a real dealer/table

Hands down the most fun excursion we have ever done! Dominica is a great island, would like to go back someday for a week.

We also just got off this ship. Never smoked a day in my life but never been all that sensitive to smoke either. I didnt smell any smoke in our room. There was a strong smell in and around churchills on deck 6 forward. The casino wasnt as overpowering to me and I didnt notice it much outside of the casino. Niether my wife or I felt is was an issue.

FWIW
