Fun lovin Posted May 13, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Hi we have booked a balcony guarantee on Celebrity Equinox for June 27 th sailing out of Rome. Just wondering if anyone has any experience of booking guarantee balcony? What were chances of view being obstructed? And if there is an obstructed view is it very intrusive?

Rare Essiesmom Posted May 14, 2015 #2 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Fully obstructed balconies are category 2D, and are obstructed because the tenders are outside your cabin and the roof will be level with the railing of your balcony. You will have a view while standing, but not sitting. Category 2C are considered partially obstructed because the smaller lifeboats are by the cabins and the roof of the lifeboats is level with the floor of the balcony. You won't have a view down, but you will have a view out when sitting. We did a balcony gty and got a 2A on the hump. Lovely location. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fun lovin Posted May 14, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Thank you so much for that information. I don't think I'd mind the obstructions too much so long as it wouldn't block the sun!! On RC I booked a balcony and this time opted for the grt. Maybe we will be as lucky as you. thanks again you were very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzanne123 Posted May 21, 2015 #4 Share Posted May 21, 2015 I booked a balcony guarantee and got 6256, a great C2 cabin. Here are some pictures of the view from the doorway, sitting on the balcony, looking to the left from the balcony and looking straight ahead while standing at the rail. I saved a bundle and didn't mind the obstruction at all. Quiet cabin just a couple steps from the elevators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
