Fall Colors cruise burning questions
 
We are about to book with the Sea Princess sailing out of New York on October 3, 2008. Just a few months away!! We have a choice of either aft or forward on Dolphin Deck (category D) or category DD on Caribe deck either forward or aft. Both are unobstructed views. The Caribe cabin is 173 square feet and the Dolphin deck cabin is 155 sq feet.

So this is it. Do we choose FORWARD or AFT and is it Port side or Starboard side?????
The Caribe cabin is only about $45 more per person than the Dolphin deck cabin. We got a great price of $3956 total for the two of us for the ten day cruise in Cat D on Dolphin deck.

I welcome any and all comments and/or suggestions. Who has been on this ship for the Fall Colors cruise?? Anyone???

Thanks

This is a great area to cruise in, but be aware the weather can be very iffy. I have no advice on what cabin to take, but if it's not too late, find a Celebrity or Holland-America cruise. Either is preferable to the Sea Princess, in my opinion (we have been on this ship), and the prices are very similar.

Of those two I would go aft. The motion will be felt less. have fun. :-)

I love the Sea Princess. I have been on her (and her sisters) many times.

Pick an aft cabin.

I should say - pick a cabin closer to the back then the front. The aft cabins on that class of ship are suites and minisuites.
