RobWhatley Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Hey Guys and Gals! Hope all are well! I'm having 2nd thoughts about the Jr Suite booked for Jan 28 2018 FOTS 6 nighter. I booked it because Cindy's "vacation" has always been to "lay" on a recliner chair on a balcony/shade and read herself to sleep. That's her "down time", her absolute pie in the sky vacation. I noticed in the RCCL Jr suite pictures, the balcony had a regular chair, and what appeared to be a loung chair (one with a totally different back) shown in the picture, but not fully shown. I'm hoping and praying there really "is" a lounge chair. Before I started calling RCCL to see if there is in fact at least one lounge chair on a Jr. Suite balcony, I thought I'd ask you upper classmen cruisers. Would any of you that know for sure, enlighten me? I know there's not a chance in heck, of "requesting" one, if they are not a part of the norm., and I understand why. I know the regular balcony rooms come with 2 "chairs". Any information is appreciated. This will be our 2nd cruise. :) We're counting the days. Thank you all, Rob Rob and Cindy Whatley Auburndale, FL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arebee Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 I don't know about suites but we got a balcony on the back of the freedom once. It had 2 lounge chairs, 2 regular chairs and a table. And had plenty of room to spare. If I ever get to go on her again you can rest assured I'll be looking for that one again. The room was 1402.

Thanks Arebee! I swear you look familiar! Lived here all my life. In business and all over Winter Haven, over the years. :) Appreciate your input.

WAAAYTOOO Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 To be honest, the only place where I have seen loungers on JS were in the aft balcony cabins with the extended balcony. I don't recall the regular JS having loungers. It's been a while since I booked a JS though. RobWhatley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melski94 Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 While not FOS, we had 2 lounge chairs plus table and 2 chairs in each JR suite on Liberty. We were about midship in 1300/1302. RobWhatley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLMoran Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 I think @WAAAYTOOO has the right of it. I've seen a fair number of JS photos / videos while I had been looking at my own room selection options, and only the ones that RC labeled as a "JS with large balcony" had a lounger. I think the balcony area on the standard port / starboard side rooms is just too short / narrow to accommodate a lounger. Likewise, those regular JS rooms also have only a small round table on the balcony that can hold a cup of coffee or two and maybe a small plate for pastries or the like. [EDIT] Aaaaaand right after I post that, @melski94 puts the lie to my statement! RestingBird and RobWhatley 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiny260 Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 Again, as @melski94 says, this is not FOTS, But Liberty OTS from June of this year, room JS-9258, little forward of mid-ship on Starboard side, 2 regular chairs, small table and 2 lounge chairs, chairs recline completely, I believe these are basically the same chairs that are in the Solarium on this ship.

cruise-y Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Just got off Liberty and the Junior Suites all have 2 loungers and 2 regular chairs and a table, as Tiny said. This is exactly the same setup on Navigator as well. The balconies are very nice and large, but I actually would have preferred one less lounger to make a little more leg room. The loungers lay flat. They aren't super comfy. You can see in Tiny's photo RobWhatley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest toodle68 Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Same as others, 2 loungers and 2 chairs and a table (liberty). We actually found the loungers to take up too much space and would have preferred some chair that converted to a lounger instead of both.
