Rare 3rdGenCunarder Posted September 19, 2017 #4 Share Posted September 19, 2017 That isn't a partial view. Those are on Lower Promenade, not Main. We had a midships cabin on Main, and we had a window over the bed. Not a huge window, but bigger than a porthole.

RMLincoln Posted September 20, 2017 #5 Share Posted September 20, 2017 its Holland veendam room 679 My Veendam deck plans shows 679 on Main deck, starboard, DD category, and full view, no obstructions. We like that location, it's on a mostly dead hallway aft of the elevators, so little foot traffic. There is a door at the aft end of the hallway which goes out onto a small outside deck, so there is easy access to the outside. And that little outside area has a stairway up to the Lower Promenade deck. The window (roughly 2.5 ft high x 3 ft wide) will be over the head of the bed if you use a queen bed configuration, or between the beds if you use a twin bed configuration. You will have a good view of the ocean. Enjoy, m-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crystalspin Posted September 21, 2017 #6 Share Posted September 21, 2017 charlie, If you're asking to compare 679 with a PO on the Lower Promenade deck, numbers in the 300's to lower 400's, -- the view from 679 will have nothing in the way of your view. Even NON-obstructed LP (D,E,EE) deck windows have the promenade (boardwalk) taking up about a quarter of the view from the bottom, plus the railing, and usually or always something overhead (the roof or a lifeboat). The PO rooms have more stuff in the way -- possible wider supports including the hull coming in from all sides, or equipment, etc. HH Fully Obstructed views have stairs, near-total hull encroachment, etc. All rooms/views on the LP may have people walking by as well! If you google IMAGES for this phrase: 'cruisedeckplans.com veendam 420' the first three images should be from a NON obstructed aft stateroom (420). As you see if you look out the window from the side (like, if the bed is together as a queen) -- there is an upright pillar support. If this had been dead center, the room might be classed a PO. None of the above (especially not people!) will be outside the 679 window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
