Show me your aft!

[Room Service!]

I WILL NOT!

Seriously never had the luxury of an aft. Someday....

[Rockportgirl]

Great room- I'm glad we did it once, but it was pretty noisy. We'll stick with regular balconies from now on.

 

 

 

[Back That Aft Up]

Great job of backing that aft up! :)

[Jsaxm]

also the balcony lights are turned off by the Bridge at night so don't plan on reading there at night unless you bring a book light. thats for the aft wraps and just the afts right below the Lido deck but the lights are for most all on wraps..:eek:

 

I have never heard anyone else post or mention anything about them turning balcony lights off on the ship from the bridge. To the contrary, I have seen many posts on here about "bad" neighbors who leave their balcony lights on all night......

On the Carnival Legend last October sailing away from Tampa...see the Sunshine Skyway bridge we passed under?

 

 

We loved it so much we are booked again in November 2011 :)

Thats only on side balconys...search balcony lights on aft..thats where you will find that info..I have had 2 on aft both wraps and that is standard procedure. You can turn them on in port..but not while at sea...

So that would explain why members of the balcony club like it in the aft. :D

You could have a convention on some of them!

 

I did an aft on Mariner of the Seas and it was 2 1/2 times as deep as these. I didn't like seeing where I'd gone. Had to put a suitcase out there since there was not enough room under the bed.

Then why have I seen videos on YouTube of the aft wraps, while at sea, with the lights turned on?

Better late than never....here are some photos of our Aft Balcony on the Glory from June... cabin 8459

As far as the lights on at night thing goes, on the Ecstasy, we could turn our aft balcony light on at night; however on the Triumph we could not. Perhaps it has something to do with the way the ships are designed that stipulates the "no lights on at night" rules.

We have booked our first Vista Suite and are so exicted. Does anyone have pictures of this room? It is suppose to have a separate living room & bed room.

 

Thanks

Are you sure they weren't the rooms lights with the curtains open? I was informed that they turn them off by the bridge for navigation purposes.. I also got a 300.00 check back from Carnival because they didn't come up front about not being able to use the balcony at night on sea days, which made it not useable at night..except for some activities...Trust me call Carnival and they will tell you about the lights now.

Carnival paid you because you couldn't use the balcony light at night?

Yes ..If you go to the BBB you will find our settlement..It was not the money for the balcony lights as the settlement ..it was not informing a buyer of a service of the details ...Ppl get the aft wraps for the use of the balcony..if one can't use the balcony for a period of time on a cruise and they are not informed then how is one to make an informed decision on how and if they want to spend their money on it...Thats why a received a check..for them Not informing me that the lights were not useable on a part of our cruise.

Some ships do and some don't..best to call Carnival and get the low down on the ship you will be taking

Yep, watched the guy turn on the light switch, walk outside, and in his panning around you could clearly see the three lights were on. He was in room 6329...the same room I'll be in, thus the reason I looked for the video.

The Aft wraps are fantastic if you have a large group, and even better if you can get the adjoining cabins across the back of the ship and open them all up. Party time!!

[stargate fan]

I am considering aft 7330 on Destiny. Does anyone have info as to the size of the balcony and whether we can have deck loungers on it? Is the cabin situated like a regular balcony cabin?

 

Thanks.

the aft cabins across the back are laid out the same as on the side.

the only difference is the two middle ones--- which will be a few inches smaller and no reported sofa.

the aft balconies are larger- I can not see a lounge chair out there as it will take up your space

 

empress deck 7 is the best deck-- see if you can chose another cabin for the sofa
