Planning our first Alaska 7 day cruise May/June and looking at 2 different cabins. I believe starboard side to see the sunrise?
1. 7181 starboard side extended balcony middle.
2. 7243 starboard side regular balcony middle.
Smoking areas are on Deck 3 (starboard side, forward), Deck 9 (starboard side, forward) and Deck 10 (starboard side, forward).
Should I forgo the sunrise and book port side to avoid any smoke issues?
Should I go with extended balcony ($80.00) more? I know the lifeboats will be 2 decks below our balcony.
TY in advance
