rp23g7 Posted October 9, 2015 #1 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Can anyone tell me about E401? Just got "upgraded" from L115, which is the very forward cabin on the top, starboard side of Regal, to E401, from the look of it, is at the aft end of the 3rd life boat on the starboard side, above Facets and Meridian Bay on the Promenade. Thanks everyone in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks everyone in advance. We had L115 on the Royal. It had 100% unobstructed view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks everyone in advance. E401 is a "deluxe" balcony cabin, the cabin is a bit bigger and includes a loveseat, small sofa, where L115 does not have the loveseat. Nice to have the loveseat IMHO.

rp23g7 Posted October 9, 2015 Author #4 Share Posted October 9, 2015 We had L115 on the Royal. It had 100% unobstructed view. yeah i figured the "obstruction" was the overhang of the upper deck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribill Posted October 9, 2015 #5 Share Posted October 9, 2015 yeah i figured the "obstruction" was the overhang of the upper deck Overhang is not considered an obstruction. Original ship design had the glass part of the balcony be a steel plate instead. That is when the cabin was designated as obstructed. Next year L115 is being reclassified as a more expensive unobstructed balcony cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on how accurate these cabin numbers are it may not be as bad as you are imagining. https://sites.google.com/site/royalregalprincess/home/8-emerald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akeasley Posted November 16, 2015 #11 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Deluxe balcony cabins are nice...had one on the Royal Lido deck a few years ago. I love the Lido deck b/c of the convenience to the pool area, buffet, etc but at least you'll have a bigger cabin with the upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They came back to post that E401 has a lifeboat in front of the balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rp23g7 Posted November 16, 2015 Author #13 Share Posted November 16, 2015 (edited) I did not take a full balcony picture, but here are some taken from the balcony. One of the life boat davits was to the right of center of the balcony and the top of the lifeboat was even with the deck. There was a cable running across from the davit to the next one, I had to stand on the chair to get a semi unobstructed picture. You can see the railing on the balcony next to us how it angles out, the next door cabin gets a bigger balcony, not sure what size the room is.

Yes, I didn't notice the date of the OP's original post. Also, unfortunate that they didn't get a good picture that could have been added to renmar's site.
