PRE-CRUISE EXPERIENCE
We booked our cruise - Deluxe Obstructed Balcony - on 1/12. Nice room; large balcony; fun position at the front of the ship.
A week later Princess put Balcony Cabins on sale, at HALF OFF, what they had been the week we booked.
The room was nice. The beds are comfortable. The bathrooms are tiny.
The balcony was large. Occasionally windy - twice we had a 1-2 hour slot, when some would be uncomfortable, due to the wind.
