There’s a couple at the back of the hump that are classed as obstructed which are very good .we have had this one a couple of times.

 

 

What cabin number is that ? Any idea ?

The obstructed aren’t so bad ,the life boats are about shin height.

Some have very little.

You must be 9 feet tall if this is shin height..

This was the answer asking about the picture with the balcony circled in red.  This would be starboard side, so would 6246 on port side be equivalent to 6646?

Sorry it’s a bit early in the morning herein Australia,these are usually classed as obstructed.

 

6646 is this cabin

Thank you so much for your quick response.  This is good news for us.  We're booked in 6246 for our upcoming Alaska Ovation cruise.

Really appreciate this post! I have 6246 booked for a B2B and had my fingers crossed for minimal obstruction. Ended up choosing this one because it was the one I noticed that was available for both weeks.... yay!

They are great cabins next to no obstruction . There’s a door on deck 6 that goes into 270 ,you beat the crowds .

Can you both check in the safe for me I think I left $50 in there.

Have been on deck 7 in the past.  On 7, it is only obstructed if you try to look down from your balcony to see the side of the ship.  Will be on deck 7 again next month.

Sure...I'll look. Then play in the casino once found, and will send you the proceeds! Australia is on my bucket list to visit, so maybe some day I could just bring it to you!  🤣🤣

So... cabins on deck 7 opened up and my TA tried to get me moved. She called twice, and both times was told because I have a gty cabin I was not allowed to be moved. 😩. Since hold times are over an hour, I think that’s the final word we will get from them. Bummer.

If you call enough times you'll eventually get moved - don't mention you had a GTY booking. Also, you need to ensure that you are asking for the exact category.

Will they do it for me, or I have to get my agent to call?  She is swamped with work, and hold times are an hour +.

Pretty sure your reservation is labeled with TA info, so while they may talk to you, your TA has to do the request.

I was afraid of that. While I don’t mind being on hold all day and keep trying to get an agent who will change my cabin... my travel agent has other things to do and people to service. I hate asking her to do more than she already has. She’s on hold with Royal now... this is call number 4 into them. I think after this, we are done.

CruiszBrug, would love info re 6246 obstruction.  I'm on it coming up in October.

Thanks very much and hoping your cruise was wonderful.
