Better to ask your room steward than to ask here! ;) The only correct answer you will get here ranges between definitely, maybe, maybe not or absolutely not!

Tillie43 Posted November 19, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Thanks Tazmantoo. I guess the question should have been stated anyone had luck in this regard or to just not ask at all. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Hlitner Posted November 19, 2013 #4 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Having been in Deluxe Veranda cabins on that ship for 49 days in the past year we have a couple of thoughts. If you want an extra chair your best bet is to quietly ask your cabin steward (and perhaps make it worth his while) who might be able to find you an extra chair. My other thought is that the verandas are pretty small and a third chair is going to make things a bit tight. But it's certainly doable.

cruz chic Posted November 19, 2013 #5 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Just curious, why do you have to ask quietly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1cruiselvr Posted November 19, 2013 #6 Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) Just curious, why do you have to ask quietly? Because the cabin steward is not suppose to take deck chairs and put them on people's private balconies. If you ask quietly, they do it quietly, then they don't get into trouble. Sometimes the steward says no he can't do it, other times, the steward is willing to take a chance in order to please you.

sail7seas Posted November 19, 2013 #7 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I agree it will make for lots of furniture on that verandah. They are chairs with ottomans vs lounge chairs but they take a fair amount of space. That is in addition to round table and chairs as well as side table.

SO who do you think the steward's boss is going to accuse when he finds out there is an extra piece of furniture that is not suppose to be there?

Yeah, that makes no sense at all. Would someone really scream or talk that loud? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakkojakko Posted November 20, 2013 #10 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I have asked for a lounger twice and never discussed a tip (different ships). When returning from our eveningmeal it was there. The stewards offcourse received a generous tip when the cruise ended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
