Novice cruiser w/ question about cabin

[DEZERTRATZ50]

We are sailing on the FOS in June and have booked an E1 deluxe private balcony stateroom. Looking at the cabin on the ship it has and asterick and states stateroom has 3rd pullman bed availiable. Stupid question, I admit, what does that mean? What is a pullman bed?

[PantherFan]

A pullman bed drops out of the ceiling like a top bunk on a bunkbed. It allows the room to sleep 3 people. When it is not being used you don't even know its there unless your looking for it.

Although not a balcony cabin or RC cabin, this is your typical pullman

It means you have room for me to join you.

That is where the room steward sleeps at night :)

That would be one way to get ice when you need it.

Not to mention having your cabin serviced first thing since he is right there.

Nice picture. Is this on the new Disney Wonder? That looks like one of their new virtual portholes on the wall.

Thank you for all your responses (even the silly ones ;)). I really appreciate the picture.

Total off topic but one of the comedians (one of the good ones) on a cruise had this bit about going to the bathroom in the middle of the night and coming out to having his bed made and a towel animal on his bed. It then leads to him looking under his bed and finding that his steward lives under there. Hilarious. And, when you have a good steward, seems so true!

That would be the Dream, but yes, I believe it is.

I think that's one of the most brilliant ideas for cruise ship cabins!

Me too! Leave it up to Disney to come up with this...so cool.
