The offset on the second and third deck creates a very small French Balcony which is one of the smallest in the industry, however this allows for a much larger Veranda on the opposite side. For this reason we always recommend the upgrade to the Veranda Stateroom for those looking to jump up from the Standard Stateroom. Standard Stateroom (E, F) - Stateroom size: 150 sq ft French Balcony Stateroom (C, D) - Stateroom size: 135 sq ft Veranda Stateroom (A, B) - Stateroom size: 205 sq ft Veranda Suite (AA) - Suite size: 275 sq ft Explorer Suite (ES) - Suite size: 445 sq ft All staterooms feature these amenities Hotel-style bed 79 in x 63 in (with optional twin-bed configuration); luxury linens & pillows Free Wi-Fi (connection speed may vary) 40" flat-screen TV with infotainment system featuring Movies On Demand, plus CNBC, FOX, National Geographic & more 110/220 volt outlets & USB ports Telephone, safe, refrigerator, hair dryer & individual climate control Private bathroom with spacious glass-enclosed shower, heated bathroom floor & anti-fog mirror Premium Freyja toiletries; plush robes & slippers available upon request Bottled water replenished daily Stateroom steward & twice-daily housekeeping Space under bed for storing suitcases Roomy wardrobe with wooden hangers For the rooms that include airfare (or reduced fare options) check out our video for tips on maximizing your included air from Viking. https://youtu.be/S5CY9OnaMN0
