Tamaracklady Posted January 19, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 19, 2014 We're travelling next month on Independence in stateroom 1400. Does anyone know if there is an outside light on the balcony? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted January 19, 2014 #2 Share Posted January 19, 2014 There was a light in the same cabin on the Liberty so I would assume there is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouhunter Posted January 19, 2014 #5 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Should be. Some over-sensitive people get upset when their neighbors leave them on overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamaracklady Posted January 19, 2014 Author #6 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I hate light while sleeping and wouldn't want even a sliver coming through the curtains so no worries about leaving it on overnight. Just hope to enjoy the balcony if the kids fall asleep early! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gcvt Posted January 19, 2014 #8 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Enjoy 1400 - those cabins are the best! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
workathome Posted January 19, 2014 #9 Share Posted January 19, 2014 We had the same cabin on liberty in Nov. LOVED IT!!!!! Yes there is a light. Enjoy your cruise I'm very jealous. It was our first cruise and I really don't know how we would do any other cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaknzoey Posted January 19, 2014 #10 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Yes, there is a light. Some selfish people who only think of themselves sometimes leave the light on overnight so those who are trying to enjoy their balcony cannot see the night stars, or have privacy, or have a dark room to enjoy a good night's sleep. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nanwel Posted January 19, 2014 #11 Share Posted January 19, 2014 fUNNY, on a different cruise line - room steward would turn on the light at night, and it took me 2 days to figure where they hid the switch to turn in off (behind the mirror) I did not even know the mirror moved!

It was our first cruise and I really don't know how we would do any other cabin. So true. I took the GF on Freedom for her first ever cruise. 1400 showed up as available during a random website check one late night and we got it...so lucky! I'm taking her on her third cruise in April but "regular" balcony cabins will never compare. She will always think back to 1400 LOL! We'll probably be 'suite-only snobs' by 2015 - she now knows that's the only way to get a bathtub :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSPhone Posted January 19, 2014 #15 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Just hope to enjoy the balcony if the kids fall asleep early! I was thinking with the kids asleep it might be more fun if the light was off :eek: :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some people just forget to turn it off and they aren't selfish:rolleyes: Or maybe it's THEIR light, and if they want to leave it on for whatever reason, they can.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvery Seas Cruiser Posted January 19, 2014 #17 Share Posted January 19, 2014 It can be quite light even without a balcony light if folks leave their draperies open and the interior lights on. That can shine quite brightly out onto the balcony too. I do agree that many folks don't even know that they can turn the balcony light on and off and don't know where the switch is--usually behind one of the draperies.

lady_cruiser Posted January 20, 2014 #21 Share Posted January 20, 2014 The lights on our balcony never, and I mean "never", work. As well as those on the cabins on either side of us. I was told that one side of the ship has the balcony lights turned off so they won't interfere with the bridge and navigating of the ship at night. Of course we just keep the drapes open with all the lights in our stateroom on so we do have lights on our balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
