downundermatt Posted January 24, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Forgive my ignorance, but I'm an Aussie planning my first Transatlantic in early May, and am wondering what the weather will be like. Which side of the ship will have the sunnier aspect ? I am most flexible with my dates and departure port, should I hold off on booking or book now ??? Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never done one, but took the boot to England once in September and it was very cold outside on the boot. Don't know about the sun, sorry. Hope this helps some Cindy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For instance: Are you going from South Africa to Argentina or vice versa? Or, how about going from Britain to Canada or vice versa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ab0si Posted January 24, 2011 #4 Share Posted January 24, 2011 The south side will get more sun. So, if traveling America to the Old World, there will be more sun on the right (starboard) side. Weather. As stated, it depends from where and to where (hence/whence?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
