Obstructed balconies on Edge

[Steve H]

We are thinking about booking an Australia and New Zealand cruise next year on the Edge. Looking at maybe a guaranteed partially obstructed iv. Not crazy about the IV balcony to begin with but the Edge is the ship in Australia at this point. This is our first cruise on the Edge class how bad is the obstruction we usually sail on S class. Thanks.

Have you considered a Sunset Verandah?  Large traditional balcony with beautiful views of the ship’s wake.

We have but fairly expensive.

This would be an example of a partially obstructed view  on Deck 6.   Would recommend checking out Cruise Deck Plans and select ship.    Many of the rooms have either youtube videos or pictures.   May give you a good idea

This may help also if you are choosing a room.  It shows the percentage obstructed.   The one posted above would be the worst case.

We had an obstructed view on the Edge and Apex.  If you look at the deck plans on Decks 7 and 8 forward there are cabins that have real balconies but have "porthole" openings.

Much cheaper and the view is fine.
