mic123 Posted September 29, 2011 #1 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Hi All, I am planning to book for next Dec on the Constellation and have been researching CC on cabins. I finally decided on 6143 or 6144 but then had a question about the balcony. Does anyone know if this balcony has any cover from the elements? One picture I found looked as if it was copmpletely uncovered. Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not knowing to where the smoke might travel, we always book balconies on the Starboard side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mic123 Posted September 29, 2011 Author #3 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Thanks! I had no idea about the smoke. So, better option would be 6144. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One picture I found looked as if it was copmpletely uncovered. Thanks for your help. they are about 50% covered. We have been in 6143 and 6145 a few times and never had an issue with smoke.

If only Posted September 29, 2011 #8 Share Posted September 29, 2011 I thought smoking was not allowed on the balconies. It is not allowed on the balcony but it is allowed on a small section on deck 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mic123 Posted September 30, 2011 Author #9 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Thank you for all your responses. I ended up booking 6144. So excited even though it is over a year away :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackdiamond Posted September 30, 2011 #10 Share Posted September 30, 2011 However, on the port side you have a much better view for your own private sailaway party complete with the furnished bubbly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare vickykay Posted September 30, 2011 #12 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Had 6144 on the Summit a year ago - great cabin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazerboy Posted September 30, 2011 #13 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Every time I see people posting about 6143, I want to say "why are you asking about MY cabin.":D We've had both cabins at the same time when cruising with friends, and really like them. Because the balcony is twice as big as regular verandah cabins, you get a veranda's worth of shade and the same amount in full sun, perfect if one likes and the other doesn't like sun.

mic123 Posted September 30, 2011 Author #14 Share Posted September 30, 2011 It sounds like it will be great. I really had to do my homework as my husband thinks he doesn't like cruising. I go with my Mom and daughter each year. He went on one (Millenium) with me back in 2000 and said it wasn't for him (too long - It was only 7 days)...I think I ran him around too much. :) He gave me a cruise for my Birthday present so I want to make sure he has a great time so we can go on more!! Hence the reason for the shorter 5 day, and finding a great cabin so he can relax on the balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
