MikeNJ1109 Posted July 28, 2016 #1 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Good morning, folks, When cruising, my wife and I normally prefer balcony cabins as far "aft" as possible, especially on Freedom Class and Brilliance Class ... we love to watch the wake and because the balcony is much larger than normal. We are booked for a cruise next year on Harmony, on what we've been told is a balcony cabin "on the hump" (Cabin 12196). We have heard that balcony cabins in this location are highly coveted and have a large following. For those that have stayed in hump cabins, we'd appreciate learning what makes them so special -- what are the differences to "regular" balcony cabins? Thanks, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted July 28, 2016 #2 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Larger balcony than the same category stateroom in other locations. More dramatic view from the balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Michael On Oasis class, 12196 is a D1 which has a larger balcony. The hump makes that larger balcony possible. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halfapair Posted July 28, 2016 #4 Share Posted July 28, 2016 We were "On The Hump" on our last cruise and are booked on the Oasis at Christmastime in room 12600, on the hump once again. We loved it because we could see up & down the full length of the ship. The views were amazing. Can't wait to do it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topcruiser16 Posted July 28, 2016 #5 Share Posted July 28, 2016 We have a D1 hump balcony booked on the Harmony for the TA this coming Oct. Does anyone know if they have a lounge chair on them or if one can be requested? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, speak to your stateroom attendant and one will be provided if it's allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langley Cruisers Posted July 28, 2016 #7 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Hi Mike, As mentioned, it's the larger balcony on the hump in this class which is so coveted. We enjoyed a hump balcony on Oasis some years ago and since we were 4 in the cabin, every extra bit of space helped! We asked for and received a lounger, but I'm not sure that is still done/permitted. Normally we go either far forward or aft and do not care about hump cabins, but the hump on Oasis was really wonderful. :) . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
