What are the large balcony cabins? 177 sqft with the 80.sqft balcony? Because even Royal says Oceanview with Balcony have the same size balconies as Large Balconies which doesn't make sense. 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Awestover89 said above its Royals travel agent site...much more accurate. Well cabin size is pretty basic. And shrinking them to jam in more would not surprise me!!!

Obstructed view cabins....they look the same to me. They certainly did not cut the cabin size by almost half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken - If you don't mind me asking, What are the dimensions of the J1s, 10722, 11722 and 12722? They appear slightly different on the Deck plans. Also the J1 on deck 6 has to be somewhat obstructed due to the Life Boat right below on deck 5. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately it’s a standard measurement that is for the majority of cabins in that category. If there are a few cabins that are a slight deviation they don’t publish those specifically.

That's a J3/J4 Junior Suite, cruising power has that as a 267/81 BUT, and here's the interesting part. In the more details section of cruising power it's also listed as 301/81. HA. Actually, all of the cabins have different values under the description tab. Looks like the description tab lines up with what's on the consumer website, while the info tab has different values.

Thanks and I appreciate the fast feedback. I am studying the deck plans to determine which cabins to book when we decide. My eyes could be playing trick on me but the J1 on 10, 11 and 12 look very slightly different on the deck plans. Still not a big deal as they are all in a good location. Thanks again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possible that's for the JS on Deck 9 mid ship, J3s. On other Quantum Class ships those have 2 Bathroom in the cabins.

timf2001 Posted September 16, 2019 #191 Share Posted September 16, 2019 The Costa ship should give Meyer Turku good practice for the upcoming Icon class ships. Hopefully those don't get pushed back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovescats5 Posted September 16, 2019 #192 Share Posted September 16, 2019 We have a hold on a Grand Loft for March 2021 and 2 different people from RCI gave a balcony size of 109sf. What happens if it is late getting to the US, would they operate like if there was a hurricane. I guess we would be far enough off the first sailings that our sailing would not be affected?? Not much left for the Star Class hopefuls, I know when we were looking there was not much to be had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare vacationlover_mn Posted September 19, 2019 #200 Share Posted September 19, 2019 In my experience booking new ships, it seems like the first sale price (for balconies), is the best. Is that other people’s experiences, or should I wait for something like Black Friday to book (for feb 12, 2021). Thx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
