Navigator, White Wall or Clear Plexiglass Wall Veranda What is the Difference and How to Tell When Booking

 Navigator, White Wall or Clear Plexiglass Wall Veranda

What is the Difference and How to Tell When Booking 

What is a Veranda?? It is a private balcony you can go out on attached to your cabin. You can sit and enjoy looking out over the ocean or the shoreline if you are in port. There are at least 2 chairs or a chair and a bench and a table for you to use there.

Are you booking a veranda and want to know the differences between the different kinds and how to tell what you are getting?? First off understand that SOME verandas can be partly or mostly obstructed. That simply means that there is something blocking your view off of it. Usually that is on Decks 5 or at the back of the ship on other decks where the white wall scoops to give the ship it’s beautiful lines.

Disney Cruise Line does not always make it easy to tell if your cabin is White Wall or Clear. I do not know why they are so nonspecific on something people really feel is important. But there is a way to know!

When you book if it says Navigator Veranda it may be a white wall with a big hole in It or a short white wall. If it is the big hole you are partly obscured from looking out but it is wonderful because you get less breeze while sitting there. It is harder to see out without standing but still nice for getting some fresh air.

Navigator Veranda also includes just white wall that is about 2.5 feet high with the upper area completely open. Being a Dwarfish Giganticus (giant dwarf), I’m only 4ft 9in tall sitting on these verandas I can not see over the wall. Still, I like these because they are slightly less expensive than the Clear Wall, more open than the Navigator with the hole and I still get to enjoy the sun in quiet.

Clear Wall Verandas have a Plexiglas wall that is about 2.5 ft high. You can easily sit in the chairs provided and enjoy the full view!! If you have connecting veranda cabins you can even open the walls between to get a larger veranda for your party.

Now how to you tell if you have a white or clear view wall?? Look at the cabin category cabin you have picked. If it is category 6 or 7 it will have a White Wall. If it is category 5 or 4 it will have a clear wall. Category 8 are white wall Navigator with the hole or partly obscured.

When booking make sure you tell your Travel Agent or the DCL representative you speak with your Veranda Wall desires! You do not want to get to the ship and find you have a Navigator Hole when you want White Wall or a Clear Wall. If you don’t tell them they can’t know.  Sadly, the DCL website does not tell you the category of the cabin when you are looking. If you book yourself, it will only tell you when start to check out.
