nat9511 Posted October 10, 2012 #4426 Share Posted October 10, 2012 We paid for and picked our seats because I won't fly unless I get an aisle seat. The extra cost was worth it for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reimer Posted October 11, 2012 #4427 Share Posted October 11, 2012 We are planning a cruise on AOS in January 2014. I would like to know a couple things about her cabins as it's hard to find specific info about the balconies. I found some info and pictures about her aft balconies, so that's cleared up. Here are my questions: 1) Do just the balconies on deck 6 have the half wall half glass panel or do all of them? 2)Do any of the cabins have connecting balconies? Or are there just connecting staterooms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are my questions: 1) Do just the balconies on deck 6 have the half wall half glass panel or do all of them? Balconies on deck 6 have a steel wall, with no glass. Balconies on other decks have half steel and half glass. 2)Do any of the cabins have connecting balconies? Or are there just connecting staterooms?No balcony dividers can be opened on Adventure. See answers in RED. I'll try to post an example if I can find one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted October 11, 2012 #4429 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I wasn't able to directly post photos, but if you look at this link, you can see some photos: http://voyager-class.com/pictures/cabins/balc_E/gallery.html If you click on the "Voyager, Explorer, and Adventure" section, you can see the differences in the balconies.

I know what you mean by the full steel wall and the half and half now. I was just a bit confused. Also I know this is the AOS thread but our other option for a Carrib cruise in Jan 2014 is the Jewel. Do you know if that ship has connecting balconies? We are pretty much decided to book on AOS but connecting balconies with another group may be a deal breaker.

I've no direct experience on Jewel, but I believe I've read posts here on CC that say no Radiance class balconies can be opened. The ships that I know have balcony partitions that can be opened are: Navigator, Mariner, Freedom, Liberty, Independence, Oasis, and Allure. Even though a ship has balcony partitions that can be opened, it does not mean it will be allowed. It's up to the ship's management. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So basically they didn't start doing that with their ships until the 2nd generation Voyager ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckrobyn Posted October 17, 2012 Author #4434 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Just giving my favorite thread a bump up to where it belongs! :) Is it February 17th yet? :rolleyes: Can't wait to be onboard - feels like forever since we skipped last year and did a B2B on the Freedom. Does anyone have pics of Owner's Suite 1300? Would love to see them :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what I did too. It only cost me $25.00 to book our seats there and back. I thought it was going to be $25.00 per seat there and $25.00 per seat back but was pleasantly surpriesed!

Ocean Boy Posted October 28, 2012 #4444 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I am not aware of any recent dry docking and I think the transformation would take a bit of doing that isn't going to be accomplished while the ship is cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping to find out if they had the new menu yet (search didn't help) and what you like or dislike about that class of ship.

I remembered you like sailing out of SJ so I was watching for a post from you. I love sailing out of San Juan. The southern itineraries are awesome. What I like most about the Radiance class ships is that the covered solarium is at times a welcome retreat from the southern Caribbean heat. It is also cool to be able to see the ocean from just about anywhere you happen to be inside the ship. There really is a lot of glass. What we missed was the Royal Promenade. We really enjoy hanging out there in the evenings. I don't know if you have been to the southern Caribbean before but if you have any questions about the islands just ask away.
