Family Rooms on Explorer

[CoJoRo]

We are planning a multi family cruise in Alaska on the Explorer of the Seas for 2018, with one family comprised of 2 adults and 3 kids.  A balcony/oceanview room is a must, so we're thinking of options for a family of 5.

 

I realize it's impossible to know exact prices for these rooms until the sailings come out next week, but can the group give some perspective on how the general prices of these room compare?

Any input is appreciated!! Thanks in advance!

The cheapest connecting option is usually 2 connecting Promenade view rooms.

 

With the 3 options you listed, I can see it going either way, but I'd expect two balcony rooms to be the most expensive.

I may be wrong (or they're quite limited and I've never seen them), but I've not seen any triple occupancy promenade view staterooms.

Thank you! I can't get a good idea of how much that family panoramic room would be, so this info helps 🙂

For future reference: my sister's family of 5 snagged a family ocean view panoramic for roughly the same price as my family of 4 in a junior suite. That's an amazing deal!!
