Sorry, another Hump Balcony question

[jjl64]

We are getting ready to book our first S-Class cruise for January 2013 and have a question about the larger balconies on the hump. I've read that the 1st and 3rd balconies are larger than the 2nd and 4th, but not sure if that is facing forward or aft.

 

For example - are the balconies in 9207 and 9211 larger than 9209 and 9215 on the Silhouette?

 

Any insight would be appreciated!

No. 9209 & 9215 are the bigger balconies.

Thanks so much for the quick reply!

That's correct. It's the first & third "off the hump" going both forward and aft. Here's a thumbnail that shows the proportions of the sizes of the angled balconies.

Just booked the Jan 20th 2013 Silhoutte sailing in cabin #9209! Can't wait for our first S-Class experience! :)

We were right next door in 9211 on our last S-Class cruise. It's right outside the card room, quiet, and very convenient place to be on board the ship. Enjoy your cruise.
