Get the right cabin for you - Cruise tip

by Marcia Frost (RSS feed) on Jan 9th 2010 at 7:44AM

Not all berths are created equal.

Keep in mind the following tips when choosing a room on a cruise ship:

The quietest rooms are in the middle of the ship and – if you really want to sleep later – you won't see any signs of a sunrise in an inside cabin.
Unless you like to climb stairs, choose a floor that's close to the main deck.
Elevators on cruises are slow so you don't want to rely too much on them. Also, rooms near elevators can be noisy.
Finally, call right before your cruise to see if upgrades are available. If the ship isn't full, the cruise line may give you a better cabin for little or no extra money.

Happy cruising.
