I just read some bad news, and hopefully this does not pertain to us.
We are booked on deck 7, sort of the middle of the ship. I just read where the lifeboats are right below, and they have a covering, and if you have a balcony, this obstructs your vision.
brneyes, like Sonny says, you need to relax. There is NO WAY to anticipatate or prepare for every possible problem.
They are going to pop up (or maybe not) and when they do, you just deal with them --calmly and intelligently. At the rate you're going it's going to take you half the cruise just to calm down.
EVERYBODY is there to make sure you have a wonderful time--and you will have a wonderful time. Enjoy the planing and preparation.
The outlook is GREAT!!
