covered balconies

[snag]

Hi, could someone please tell me if deck 9 on Pacific Encounter is covered. Thanks Snag

I know that some are only half covered but not sure about all.

 

I would like to know an answer this question as well

 

Hope someone can help

All balconies on deck 9 are completely open, meaning those on higher decks can look down and see what you are up to.😂 Also means no shelter, but honestly neither scenario has ever bothered us in the least and we use the balcony a lot.

Deck 10 are partially covered, so if you want full shelter you should be looking at Deck 11 up.

Thanks for that.  Thought so.

 

But the bonus of course is the mini suite and Larger balcony.

You're welcome.

Yep, in our opinion the pluses outweigh the minuses, particularly if you opt for a Byron mini suite.

Tried the Byron suite last time.

 

Not really for me.

 

Not the sitting around type - prefer to walk..and walk,,,and walk out in the fresh air on the promenade deck

 

To pool was good though and fairly empty

 

But prefer the bigger cabin though

Everyone is different and I respect that.

We love the Byron, great views, not too crowded, comfy seating, et al. We tend to take the stairs a lot, so get plenty of exercise. We also enjoy the Byron 'perks' - breakfast at Angelos, canapes in the cabin most evenings, Nespresso machine in cabin, priority embarkation (and disembarkation), priority tenders. Last cruise we hadn't booked our dining preferences pre cruise and about 5 minutes after boarding and going to our cabin, the maitre 'd was on the cabin phone to discuss our preferences and book us in.
