Trying_It_All Posted March 26, 2023 #26 Share Posted March 26, 2023 On 2/5/2023 at 1:55 AM, Travrat said: I would prefer to have the extended balcony and choose B3 deck 7 aft on all 4 of the O cruises(3 on Marina, 1 on Riviera) I have been on. The vibration is only bad when docking and setting sail. It’s a good alarm clock in the morning and I’m usually not in my cabin when setting sail. I’m about to book a B3 deck 7 on Marina for Oslo to London. My first cruise ever. How early is docking? Do you have any pic of the extended balcony you’re willing to post? It seems odd number cabins are more popular for the orientation to views on this sailing, and the best available was in the aft section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here you go (post #5): I searched the forum using "extended" then scrolled until I saw images on the second page of hits. You can probably find more with the same search if you like.

Lvntrvl Posted February 13 #30 Share Posted February 13 Does anyone have a picture of the extended verandas on deck 7 of the Marina? Specifically wondering if they have glass or solid railings. We don't mind the vibration, but we want the view. Thank you for your comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovetocruise20188 Posted February 13 #32 Share Posted February 13 The 2 sided balcony was great - lots of room with 2 loungers, small table and chairs. Marina 7111 in Nov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lvntrvl Posted February 14 #33 Share Posted February 14 Our friends have the cabin next to us. do the veranda doors open to allow us to visit with each other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benita Posted February 14 #34 Share Posted February 14 We were in 7123, a PH2 on the Vista which is two cabins from the end, aft. Fabulous balcony. No issues with vibration or motion- seas were very calm. We take the PH1- all the way aft on Marina or Riviera when we can get them- 7135 or 7130. Sometimes some creaking, but not much difference in motion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just tune out any noise. Usually only entering or leaving a port Our favorite cabin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IWantToLiveOverTheSea Posted February 14 #37 Share Posted February 14 (edited) 16 minutes ago, IWantToLiveOverTheSea said: I just got off Riviera, room 7131 with extended veranda. There were regular metal railings, exactly like the picture above by See More. Furniture was the same. I had to remember when I went out that people above could see me if I went to the railing, but that was no big deal. The room was noisy due to thrusting in a few ports when docking (Asian ports) but it didn't bother us.

I didn't ask or try, but I think the answer is yes. But I think you have to ask your room steward to unlock them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went all the way up the ladder to Dominique Nicolle to have the end portion of veranda opened so my friends next cabin could come over. The answer was NO. Don't know if they have had a change of mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it depends upon the itinerary as we have been able to have door opened on some ships/itineraries but not on others...just my thought 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerfan75 Posted February 15 #41 Share Posted February 15 Since the partitions are for slowing the spread of fire, a GM probably must give way to the decisions of the Safety Officer or Captain… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were told it could be done, but only while in port. While the ship was moving, the "door" between balconies had to be closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
