50something Posted February 14, 2013 #1 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I am a bit confused. We have booked cabin 10510 on the Jewel and when I checked the deckplans it is classed as a family cabin. The bacony and mid ship balcony look exactly the same. Is there any difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novastar Posted February 14, 2013 #2 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I don't think there is any difference in the size of the cabin but some of the family balconies sleep 4 instead of 3. I think they are grouped somewhat together so there might be more kids in that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We booked one on the Epic for next January (deck 13) because we needed a balcony room across the hall from an inside room that sleeps at least three, for our children. I wish that we were getting a bigger room for the bigger price, but unfortunately not.:rolleyes: Carol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bacony and mid ship balcony look exactly the same. Is there any difference? As the others have posted, accommodates a third or fourth berth. Location is closer or more convenient to the Kid's Club areas. Will be the exact same on the inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
50something Posted February 15, 2013 Author #5 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Many thanks for your replies. as a recently retired teacher I try to avoid children whilst on holiday! I am hoping there wont be very many on this cruise - 21st April out of New York. Is this a holiday period n the U.S? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toledo Posted February 15, 2013 #6 Share Posted February 15, 2013 No, it's not a holdiay. Most of the spring breaks will be over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fergusonvt Posted February 15, 2013 #8 Share Posted February 15, 2013 April 22nd through the 26th is when most VT school close for their spring vacation. I would imagine some other NE states do something similar. I probably wouldn't have booked that week myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
