Bxc53 Posted March 13, 2023 #1 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Specifically , Balcony and Club Balcony Suite on the Encore. We are planning our first NCL cruise and wonder what the extra $ gets. Floor plan maps look almost identical. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare genealogyfan Posted March 13, 2023 #2 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Here's a link to the NCL website of what you get with a club balcony and the other descriptions of the types of cabins. https://www.ncl.com/why-cruise-norwegian/cruise-accommodations/minisuites-and-balconies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsammo46 Posted March 13, 2023 #3 Share Posted March 13, 2023 In short the club balconies will be in better areas on the ship and will have larger bathrooms and showers. You are also granted a bottle of champagne on embarkation day and one free bag of laundry, at least that's how it was when I was last in a club suite in April of 2022. Things with NCL can change a lot and quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sailing12Away Posted March 13, 2023 #4 Share Posted March 13, 2023 You also get some snacks brought to the room 1-2 times during your trip, depending on the length of the cruise. My folks were in a club balcony suite in September and had chocolate covered strawberries one day, and cookies another on a 10 day cruise. Slightly bigger and nicer bathroom, better ship location, free bag of laundry, and some bonus snacks. Otherwise there's not much difference.

Isn't Champagne only sparkling white wine that comes from the "Champagne" region in France... so technically "Champagne" on NCL ship is only sparkling wine because it doesn't come from Champagne, it comes from Chardonnay: https://www.vivino.com/CA/en/duc-de-valmer-blanc-de-blancs-brut/w/1389221 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
