E1 Aft or D2 midship?

[lauraapp]

We were upgraded from an E1 to a D2 midship...suddenly a E1 aft on the Mariner Cabin 9692 became available. This is for a Transatlantic cruise, what

should I do, keep the D2 or take the E1 after (bigger balcony).

We love aft cabins, bigger balcony and bigger view!

Aft

I'd take midship. Had our first aft in Feb and could not stand seeing only the wake. Also a long walk. Big balcony is overrated

[Puffinater]

I would take the aft.

I'd rather have a mid-ship cabin. I love watching the ocean as we glide through the water. Also, I like to be in the "center" of everything. Not as much walking. :D

I love the aft balconies. They are large and usually have loungers. It is a longer walk, but the exercise makes it easier to justify eating a little more. I have had a hump balcony. I enjoyed the convenience of being near the elevators, but I enjoy the bigger balcony more. (I have an aft balcony on the TA.) See you onboard! Carolyn

I'd take any D location over any E cabin. I'll never book an E again. I made that mistake only once. A transatlantic is too long to be in that tiny room with less floor space, less storage and tiny love seat.

Corner aft for the price too.

I would take an E on Freedom class for a short (3-5 nights) cruise if the price difference was hundreds of dollars, but otherwise I'm with you. It was just a wee bit tight for DH and me, spoiled people that we are.:)

I would do midship, too...especially on a TA....could be a rougher ride. And the normal balcony is fine for 2 people!

More "down time" on a TA means more balcony time. Take the aft.

 

The space difference between E and D is insignificant, to me, as compared to the much better balcony.

 

And on a TA, you really need the exercise. ;)

Corner aft for the price too.

 

Not a corner aft. One in.

Here is another vote for the aft cabin. We really have enjoyed the larger balcony and didn't find the walk to be a deterrent.

 

We really loved the extra space. And the hallways are quieter with less foot traffic.

We had that cabin on Navigator & loved the large balcony,would book that cabin again in a heart beat:D
