Creator's Key Takeaways

I recently went on symphon of the Seas and I intentionally booked a virtual balcony cabin just so I could do this video

it was a video camera pointed out at the water and that was it not only that it was pointed out straight ahead

this virtual balcony cost me an extra $300 for this cruise over a regular inside cabin

on the positive side it made the cabin seem a lot bigger when it was actually on

Creator's Tips & Advice

Consider if the extra cost for a virtual balcony is worth it given the limitations
Check if the virtual balcony is functional before booking
