firefly333 Posted April 17, 2020 #1 Share Posted April 17, 2020 When I skimmed it when I received it this morning I thought oh $170 good price for a spacious balcony, I would so do it if they hadnt already cancelled this cruise, too bad. I happened to reread the fine print, spacious balcony... or LARGER CABIN. I'm booked in a pr for the view. So they could just move me to a spacious interior and not the pictured cabin right? There is a heck of a difference between a spacious interior and spacious balcony which is pictured. You can get a balcony for 145 it says, so it is the safer and cheaper deal, the other sure seems meant to trick you, but maybe it's me. Never did a royal up before. Obviously wouldnt this time since they already cancelled it. Is this royal up typical? .. that you have to read the fine print and might get something other than the cabin pictured?

beardedladies Posted April 17, 2020 #2 Share Posted April 17, 2020 It's compared to a standard balcony - the 'spacious' could be a more spacious cabin or more spacious balcony compared to the standard balcony cabin. You won't get a spacious inside room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have plenty of time to read the very lengthy Royal Up thread - just about every issue with Royal Up is discussed there, including the do's and don'ts. Here's a preview - the pics and descriptions can be a bit misleading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have stayed in a spacious OV balcony on several RCL ships and never had one that large. I have had some wonderful extra large balconies with this category and try to book it whenever available. I am 99% sure that photo is a jr suite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok biker, but I went thru 5 pages trying to find the royal up thread, and didnt find a way to search for it. I will read it if it comes back to the top.

It's difficult to search, I know, but limiting the search to RCI and titles usually finds it: It also helps to use combinations - I didn't find it until I took the space out between Royal and Up - thanks @John&LaLa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare John&LaLa Posted April 17, 2020 #7 Share Posted April 17, 2020 The balcony cabin that is really worth upgrading to is the ultra spacious one. Its as big as a JS. Used to be called Family Balcony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firefly333 Posted April 17, 2020 Author #10 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I'm booked solo and it says per person. Do they really mean per person? Or based on double occupancy? I'd move to a balcony for $145 if I got that offer in the future. ... if it's really per person Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
