On Bliss, 9208 probably has the bed near the balcony and the sofa-bed near the bathroom since it is shown to sleep 4. It's also a connecting stateroom with 9206.

 

For the mini-suite category on BA/BA Plus ships, if the stateroom sleeps 4, the bed is near the balcony. If it sleeps 3, most are bed near closet. There are some mini-suites that sleep 3 and have the bed near the balcony (no pullman). With your preference, a "sleeps 4" will have the sofa-bed near the closet and the bed near the balcony. 

 

I'm not sure about the H5 but I believe that the sofa-bed is near the balcony. You can still access the balcony without disturbing the person sleeping on the sofa-bed, though. 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for the reply, that helps!

Thank you to all for your input, especially Jamie. 

On my Bliss sailing Haven is only category that is sold out. We have a mini suite booked with 2 adults and a 15yo. We would really like to upgrade to a Haven room. All Haven rooms have available offer to upgrade except H3. I noticed that some (H2,H8,H7) only have 2 or 3 rooms available. We would love an H6. So do you think strongest bid should be on cabins with most availability?? We are not bidding on H5 because the only layout I see is with extra bed near balcony door and we want to get to balcony in the morning without waking up our 15yo. Does anyone know if this is only layout for H5?

I’ve spent way too long looking through pages and pages of this thread trying to decide how much to bid!

I've looked at my cruise and done dummy bookings seeing at least 15 rooms available in almost all categories that I’m able to upgrade to so I’m assuming the cruise isn’t close to full yet. When is peak season considered to be?

I'm cruising on the breakaway western Caribbean out of Miami 14th April so wondering if spring break is over and the ship will be quieter then (from the UK so not sure on spring break dates!)

 

Thanks everyone for all the info lots to take in but very helpful!

My daughter was on spring break (college) from the Boston area last week, but Mass. school vacation week (highschool and below)

  is April 14 week and NH and Maine school vacation week is April 21 

Hi All,

   When I choose a Cabin for our April Bliss sailing I selected a mini suite because we have a 15 yo travelling with us and we wanted him close to the door so he can sleep late and we can get to the balcony in the morning without disturbing him. All of the pictures on the website show the pull out couch near the entryway to the room. After I booked the room I saw a layout drawing showing the couch near the slider to the balcony.  Our room is 9208. Does anyone have experience with mini suites? Or this room in particular?

Also I have the the same question about H5  rooms. All of the pictures show same pull out couch next to balcony slider. Is this the only layout for H5 rooms? Trying to decide if I bid on upgrade. 

Thanks!

Happy Cruising!

How do you find out how many cabins are left on a particular sailing?

Hi, We are sailing on the Bliss on April 21st. We just sent in some upgrade bids.  Do they always take til 2 days before to confirm or deny you?
