Creator's Key Takeaways
I originally booked an inside cabin to keep cost down since I was doing three cruises back to back on different lines crazy right but I was lucky enough to get an upgrade to this obstructed view balcony room
it really made a difference being able to step outside for fresh air and having that natural light come in just made the room feel so much more spacious
overall even though it was technically an obstructed view the experience was much more than I expected for my first time on kunard
I have to make sure you lock the door there's air that you can feel the air coming through and it whistles
