sunandfun Posted August 13, 2009 #1 Share Posted August 13, 2009 We have a sweet 16 balcony cabin booked on Millie - can anyone tell me if there is a larger table available on that balcony for eating outside, or the possibility of getting a lounge chair(s)? With the extra space it would be nice to be able to utilize it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

excitedofharpenden Posted August 14, 2009 #3 Share Posted August 14, 2009 :confused::confused::confused: Excuse me but -------- what is a Sweet 16 Cabin ???? On the M-Class ships they are the first eight balcony cabins on each side of deck 6 and have a double sized veranda that isn't evident from the deck plans. There's are a few pictures of the balcony to 6025 in the picture link in my signature. To the OP, even though those pictures show a lounger which was delivered without an issue, all I have read her says they will no longer do this so it's just the standard two chairs and a small table.

Andym Posted August 14, 2009 #4 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Phil, we slipped the steward $20. We had two loungers within the hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gracecarmo Posted August 14, 2009 #5 Share Posted August 14, 2009 We tried the $20 method....no go. (tried this on 2 different cruises and still NO). Went down to the desk and they said that they would send two extra chairs, not loungers. We got the two chairs and that was the best we could do. This was last year on the Connie.

c-to-sea Posted August 14, 2009 #6 Share Posted August 14, 2009 It all depends on the ship and the crew of the moment, I think. We could not get a Sweet 16 for our Transpac in April but did get 7049 with the larger triangular balcony. When we boarded, there were 2 loungers already there from the previous cruise and they were not removed. Although it made it a bit crowded, we used them a lot and were able to invite people in for a glass of wine a few times and sit out in the warm weather. You should still try the Cabin Steward incentive ploy. You never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LunaSeaRetreat Posted August 14, 2009 #7 Share Posted August 14, 2009 When we arrived at our sweet sixteen cabin on the Summit in November there was a small table, one chair, and one lounge chair. That worked for us. Cynthia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichYak Posted August 14, 2009 #8 Share Posted August 14, 2009 On Millie in Feb '08, our cabin steward refused to get us a lounge chair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackdiamond Posted August 14, 2009 #9 Share Posted August 14, 2009 I thought that the sweet sixteens had been converted to the low level CC's on the M class. Am I correct? If not, then they might be a good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunandfun Posted August 15, 2009 Author #10 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Thanks very much everyone - I was planning on giving a good tip anyway to see if we could score a lounger or two.. doesn't hurt to ask...would be a shame to waste all that extra space. We booked the room as a Category 2C, it was about $80 cheaper on our cruise than the CC cabin...which I would have gladly done, but when this one has the larger balcony I chose not to go with the higher category.

If not, then they might be a good deal. Have the Sweet 16's been reclassified and priced higher? I know the aft cabins have been, but hadn't heard anything about the sweet 16's.

If not, then they might be a good deal. No, they are still 2Cs. They are 170 sq ft and not 191 like the CC cabins. It seems that some can get loungers and others can't. Another of those inconsistent policies. Don't you love 'em?;) Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
