lmsjt915 Posted September 25, 2012 #1 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Um, should I jump on this deal? We sailed on the Liberty last March and looking into the same ship for next year. Loved it SO much. I could pay $699 for a D-1 on the hump (port side) or $799 on the hump for JS starboard side. I think I prefer the port side but give me pros and cons of the starboard side!

39august Posted September 25, 2012 #2 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Who cares what side? Take the JS for that price!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molly361 Posted September 25, 2012 #3 Share Posted September 25, 2012 That's a great deal. Is that a resident rate? I am only seeing $899 for a JS for March 2013 on the Liberty. Hop on it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would jump at a JS regardless of where it is, especially at that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lmsjt915 Posted September 25, 2012 Author #7 Share Posted September 25, 2012 No, it's a 5 night western to Cozumel and Belize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted September 25, 2012 #8 Share Posted September 25, 2012 No, it's a 5 night western to Cozumel and Belize. Nice..Why am I only seeing Mar16th JS at $1349pp...5 night western includes Cozumel & Belize :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAWS Posted September 26, 2012 #9 Share Posted September 26, 2012 We always book Starboard side. Always. Never been sorry either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
critterchick Posted September 26, 2012 #10 Share Posted September 26, 2012 No, it's a 5 night western to Cozumel and Belize. We were in a starboard side cabin (E-1) for that itinerary last November, and it was hotter than Hades on the balcony almost every day as we always seemed to be on the sunny side, whether in port or at sea. But I would take the JS anyway.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shonandsuzie Posted September 26, 2012 #13 Share Posted September 26, 2012 We just snagged that same price on a JS on Liberty for February (5 day). Ours is facing aft but I tried to trade for a JS on the hump. But, they told me the hump ones only can accomodate 2. :( Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beth C Posted September 26, 2012 #15 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Great deal - our JS on Liberty last January were $719 and $849 for the 4 and 5 nighters... the best part - 3rd pax were only $299 and $329... I was # 3 :D 9 nights @ sea and 18 C&A points for under $700... SCORE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady_cruiser Posted September 26, 2012 #16 Share Posted September 26, 2012 We paid $1299 and $1499 for our Jr. Suite so run don't walk to the nearest phone and grab that Jr. Suite. Run Run, stop reading and run to that phone.....:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxxedout2 Posted September 26, 2012 #18 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Hi OP... Three things about port vs starboard come to mind sailing from FLL out of PE to Belize...done it several times. 1. On Liberty OTS, the aft port elevators are the only ones that go up to deck 14 (Viking Lounge)...not a deal breaker. 2. Leaving Port Everglades the Web Cams all scan the port side of all the ships leaving. If you want your relatives to see you on your balcony while sailing out of PE..get a port side balcony and drape some kind of colorful banner on your railing... Some folks with iphones actually watch themselves leave port on the Web Cams. OPTION...just go to top deck, port side, and stand at rail as you go through the inlet. 3. The first sea day you cruise along the Island of Cuba as you head to Belize. If your balcony is on sunny port side you see the tall mountains of Cuba in the distance...personally I enjoy that scenery. If your balcony is starboard, you see water and sky that day from a shadier balcony. Again OPTION...walk around top decks if you choose starboard. Of course the JS is nice...so the above may not matter at all. If so...disregard this post. Lucky you...my favorite ship...LOS. Have fun! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knittinggirl Posted September 26, 2012 #19 Share Posted September 26, 2012 That's a wonderful price! Five night cruises can cost almost as much as a 7 night cruise. And prices are strange. I think our five night cruise in an inside actually was only $20 per person more than the four night out of Galveston. Also, double credit depending on your C and A status. We heard March is bug season, so take along the repellant. Belize is wonderful, but the bars on all the windows made us a little nervous. We took the open carriage ride, and loved the horse portion. The motor portion came w/o seatbelts. But I did get some great shots from the carriage. Need tips to enter St. John (?), the oldest church in Central America. Personally, if we see it again, I may stay outside and get more shots of the exterior. There's a beautiful old tree in front. March may be spring break, but at least a Junior Suite lets you hide from the kids if you wish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cigar King Posted September 26, 2012 #20 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Personally we're on one of these and have gone with the hump balconies. (We have one, my brother and his wife have the adjoining) I considered the hump, but decided that with a short cruise, not in December, the extra price just wasn't worth it.

knittinggirl Posted September 26, 2012 #21 Share Posted September 26, 2012 We've done mostly hump JS, but we did an Aft Suite on our cruise to Hawaii. Going east/west, we got either the sunset or sunrise all the way out and back. Something to consider on a FLL to Cozumel run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
