E1 Balcony, Deck 7, Forward on Brilliance

[Seabreez]

The ship's diagram of decks in RCI brochures show
the balconies being larger on deck 7 than on decks 8,9 & 10 for Cat E1. True or not?? Probably not.
We have Cabin 7030, Port. If anyone has pics of
any cabin close to us I would love to sneak a peek.

Didn't acutally see one.. but from the outside they DID look bigger (the balcony) and they didn't have the "obstructions" that the E3s had.
I'd like to hear of anyone's first hand experience.

Yes the balcony is bigger, but the extension of the balcony does not have a glass or steel barrier between it. It's just a plain 4 foot or so high railing..
So basiclly its a regular balcony, plus a 2 foot extension with a railing seperating from the neighbors...
We didnt have a problem with it at all...

Can your neighbors look over at you on the balcony?
Is it "private"? [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_confused.gif[/img]

Are the E3 cabins on Brilliance Deck 7 obstructed at all? It looks like the E3 balconies along the straight ends have life boats underneath. How about the E3 on the hump??? Any obstruction? Thanks!

Thanks for the info KeeponCruzin. I was tired last
night when I read your reply and the mind was
just not working. Maybe a better cabin will become
available but I can live with what we have at the
moment.
