privacy issues on M class balconies HELP QUICK!

[hav2travel]

Ok, this is the situation. I have a choice of Con. class cabin on the Contellation. If I take 9038 a triangle balcony. Is there a privacy issue from folks to the left or the right of me. Also are there any close up shots of those cabins to help me choose.

 

Help quick

If you have a chance to get one of those cabins, I would take it. We were in one last year and whileyou do stick out more, the extra space was welcomed.

Do you have any photos? & was it easy for other to see you on the balcony while sun bathing?

9038 is one of our favorite cabins - we had it on Millie. 9043 is another great one. If you sit way out at the point you can be seen by those behind you. If you sit back, the normal space, and have the lounge chair with the "feet out" you'll be fine. Just remember, no sun on this balcony. The overhand is very wide.

I have a few pics, but I have no idea on how to get them to you. Others will see you if you are out on point.

We had the same cabin but on Deck 7 on Summit this past March -- 7080 and loved it. There is a thread you can search and find pictures. Do a search for Cabin 7080 and you will see all the cabins from deck 6 to 9. I wouldn't hesitate to get this cabin again and tried on our upcoming Hawaii cruise but it was already taken :(

What it comes down to is if you are shy or not.

The search tool brings up quite a bit of commentary on 9038 too. I haven't looked through them, but there may be reference to a picture:

Post a new thread on the Cabin Selection section and maybe you'll find some pictures when you brouse it. It would look the same on any of the M Class Celebrity ships.

Very nice cabin. We had had the attendant bring a padded lounge chair out and that's where I spent most of my crusie :) Seriously, the balcony is great. Unless you hang out at the railing, you won't see anyone else and they won't see you.

 

Another feature of this cabin is that there is very little wind while cruising along. I like that.

Enjoy,

Thank you all for your help

That's been my cabin twice on Millie, once on Infinity and will be again next April. you have privacy and the shape makes it extra roomy.

 

take care of "my" room!!!!!

Balconies are never totally private. There are separations between the "walls" that separate each balcony, and people on either side of your balcony can clearly "peek between the cracks" and see your balcony clearly, even far back to your glass door, so if you're planning on nude sunbathing, or other extracurricular activities on your balcony, you're not going to be 100% private.

"peek between the cracks"

Sorry Darcie. When I started reading about nude sunbathing on the balcony, this phrase just sort of jumped out at me:D

I think I can see your point Phil :D

[hav2travel]

Ok guys. you sold me. I booked it!

 

Now, I did not mean NUDE sunbathing. Just plain old sunbathing. But topless is fine with me.

Phil, I didn't realize what I posted until I read your post. Now I'm "cracking" up LOL.
