SUMMIT - What cabin area?

[Balto Bob]

What area of the ship would be best for both ride AND location. One kid - 9?

 

Thanks

There is less motion in the center of the ship as opposed to the ends and there is less motion as go towards the bottom of the ship. Therefore, a cabin on a low deck in the center of the ship will experience the least movement. The funny thing is that some of the most prized cabins such as an aft cabin with a balcony are on the higher decks and experience the most motion.

Having only cruised in the aft cabins on the "M" class ships, I don't think there is much motion at all. You are on a cruiseship afterall (where have I heard that before???:rolleyes: ). Just got off the Summit and had a corner FV cabin. With a kid, I am assuming at this age in the same cabin with you, I would go for one of these on decks 7 or 8. The ones on deck 9 are noisey from the outdoor cafe above. The FV's have very large verandahs and also are actually two rooms, seperated by a divider. One room closest to the verandah has two sleeper sofas and a T.V. with VCR. The other room is your normal cabin, with all that you would expect there.
