Thumbs up Bigger balconies and cabins on Millie class ships

There are 16 cabins on deck 6 in category 2C that have balconies that are twice the size of the standard balcony. They are just forward of the lifeboats and just aft of the forward oceanview cabins. They are the first 8 2C cabins on both sides of the ship. I was in 6035 and a client in 6020.
The oversize balcony is not reflected in the deck plans, but they are fully twice the standard size.

The 2 forward corner oceanview cabins on deck 6 and 7 are huge, probably between 250 and 300 SF. The cabin window looks forward and this would be the choice for anyone looking for added space without the extra price of a suite. The cabins are 6004, 6005, 7002 and 7003.

There are also other larger balcony cabins that are reflected in the deck plans, an example would be cabins 7173, 7175 and 7177, and the cabins opposite them on the starboard side.

Excellent info, Reggie. I had noticed that on the brochures but I was not sure if it was that way in actuality.

This was already covered in an earlier thread.

These cabins are over the theater and are extended out further. There is a set of cabins on RCI's Radiance class like this for the same reason.

We had a cabin like this on Serenade OTS, and really liked the balcony. When we booked the Infinity for Jan 07, it was tempting to get one of these, but since it will be a 2 week cruise, I opted for one of the aft CC's.

Great post too.

I just had a senior moment and spaced it out.

Oh well, maybe the info on the deck 6 and 7 will be of use
to someone. I had someone booked in 7002 and although I knew it was larger, I didn't know how much larger till I saw it for myself.

If you have any pictures, be sure to post them! There are a few pictures in Webshots of the ship in that area, but it is hard to tell for sure how big the balconies are.

Deja Vu all over again. Now that you mention it, I do recall the topic. Thank you anyway Reggie for jogging my memory!

I believe that it is designed simular to the Radiance class. I am posting this picture of the Radiance to show how the balconies extend out more. The balconies are almost twice as deep on the cabins way up front, same for cabins near the aft.

It seems that PIC was taken from one of the balcony cabins on the hump.
Did you have one of those cabins and how was it?

Popeye

Yes we were on the hump in cabin 9584, it was great.
Good views fore and aft and central location.
I booked 13 months ahead to get it.

Hi Reggie: My TA just told me he has cabin #6045 on Infinity, Penthouse deck, Catagory 2C. Is that one of the bigger balcony cabins? Thanks.
