No pics and have not been in one but the walkway you are talking about it a deck that others (if they find the door) can go out on and see in your window.

firefly333 Posted April 11, 2010 #3 Share Posted April 11, 2010 I lost all my pictures too when I reformatted. They used to be 6Bs, and since the wall in front of the window pretty much blocks all the ocean view (very obstructed), they changed them to inside category. You can see some ocean maybe if you are tall enough to see over the wall, but can see the sky for sure, and if its raining or sunny at least. Yes, it is a public deck, and my experience was the door out there can slam and you can hear it .. but a great location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Essiesmom Posted April 11, 2010 #5 Share Posted April 11, 2010 These pictures are of Carnival Splendor 7203. And the deck in front. this is what the decks look like. My cabin was below the bridge: This is my window, you can just see my doll Essie sitting in it: Be aware that the odd shaped cabins on the ends are usually HC accessible. It's a lovely place to be when coming into port, but when you are underway it is very windy. There shouldn't be people out there at night because if you are underway, there is nothing to see, and it will be quite windy. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sailaway4 Posted April 11, 2010 Author #7 Share Posted April 11, 2010 Looks nice but we were scared of being so far forward.I would not hesitate to book it but afraid of it being rougher up there.Went with a balcony instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrmende63 Posted August 28, 2010 #8 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Looks nice but we were scared of being so far forward.I would not hesitate to book it but afraid of it being rougher up there.Went with a balcony instead. The forward motion scares me too...but I took the chance and booked a 4J on our Back to Back cruise on the Carnival Destiny. I could not pass up the price on a "inside" that had a window and we can go out the side doors and see the ocean. I am an Aft kinda gal, but we shall see!

canlin1 Posted August 28, 2010 #9 Share Posted August 28, 2010 My sister and I booked cabin 1003 on the Glory Panorama Deck back in April on a Western Cruise. We loved this room and hope to find similar bookings on future cruises!!!! The obstructed view is a solid railing, but you have sunshine and horizon from your window. When you go out on the deck, you absolutely can see the water. I am 5'3" and the railing was up to my chest area. The cabin is on the corner of the bow, over the bridge and is huge by cabin standards. We felt like we were in a hotel room. It apparently was handicapped but not billed as such, or we never would have taken it, wouldn't want to take it from someone who needed it, and, if we did get upgraded, would have been disappointed that the new room wouldn't have been like this one. It was a little windy when moving, but certainly nothing to worry about. Having an almost deserted deck to yourselves when coming into and going out of port was really nice. Try it!!!

jrmende63 Posted May 6, 2011 #11 Share Posted May 6, 2011 How did you like the 6205 4 J cabin. I'm thinking of booking it for a June cruise Pros?- Cons? I had cabin 7102 a 4j on the Destiny. We loved it. I will always book these cabins if available on the ship. The space in front was great. No seasickness. Loved loved the cabin. Only con was the aft dining room was really far. But we justwalked down our hallwayto the last big set of stairs. No problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a walker and don't mind walking off all the food I eat on a cruise. LOL I usually tend to do at least a full set up stairs up/down each day anyway. I was more interested in the different shaped room set up and location regarding movement on the water. So far everything I read does not seem to reflect any problems.

LisaT12 Posted May 8, 2011 #14 Share Posted May 8, 2011 We also booked this cabin-type for our Aug. cruise on Glory....first time for us looking forward to seeing what it is all about....we just couldn't pass up the deal!!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C&THollings Posted May 8, 2011 #15 Share Posted May 8, 2011 I was in room 9201 in March on the Glory. I love the room location, but the door was kept locked when we got on the ship. After may complaints from the cabins up front, the doors was unlock for 3 day's, then locked again when kids kept running in an out slamming the doors. When I asked what they were doing I was told a scavenger hunt for Camp Carnival.. shame on them for sending kids out there. The door was unlocked the entire time one the Liberty. But regardless, I love the rooms in up front of the ship. 9201 is a HC room, hubby is HC. It's convenient to be close to the activities on the Lido deck, and the theater is just straight down the elevators. Unfortunately the dinning was on the other end of the ship.
