CRUIZIN SUZAN Posted February 19, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I'm thinking about calling the upsell fairy & am looking for suggestions. If I have a choice of a port balcony or starboard balcony- which is preferable for a Bahamas sailing to Port Canaveral, GSC & Nassau.....and why? Thanks in advance for your insight.

Demonyte Posted February 19, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 19, 2016 In ports of call there is no difference as the direction of the ship docking can vary on each cruise because of weather, maintenance needs, crew lifeboat drills, etc, etc. Only sure difference is leaving from and getting back to NYC - when leaving you'll have views of Statue of Liberty on starboard side and when getting back, it's on port side.

spidybabe Posted February 19, 2016 #3 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Port side to see Manhattan skyline with the freedom tower , starboard to see lady liberty. Try to be topside when going under the Verrazano bridge-- its amazing. All not to be missed sites...all beautiful. New York is an amazing port to sail from. Fantastic sites all around. Only time side of the ship matters is during sail away, and you never know which side they will dock at ports. Safe sailing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRUIZIN SUZAN Posted February 19, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted February 19, 2016 For the info. I was able to score an aft cabin, so that helped with my indecision We sailed out if NYC before- it's breathtaking. It will be cool to be on an aft balcony for the Varrazano pass under. Thanks again for the tips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
