Julie Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 Port, starboard...does it matter which side I pick? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mworkman Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 Depends on where your cruising too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocLC Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 Typically, no. The only exception might be if you're doing a one-way Alaska sailing. Otherwise, whatever you don't see on the way into a port, you'll see on the way out. Or, hedge your bets and get an aft or forward facing cabin.

Matt Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 I generally don't think so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RestingBird Posted April 22, 2017 Report Share Posted April 22, 2017 My wife booked our first 2 rooms on port side (I think), so now my ocd has put us on that side for the next 3 out of 4 cruises. I'm trying a starboard on Brilliance, might be a long week going the wrong way to get everywhere ? DocLC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRC Posted April 22, 2017 Report Share Posted April 22, 2017 I've noticed that I tend to favor the starboard side (like 90%). No particular reason, I guess I book it without realizing it. Southbound Alaska I purposely selected a port side balcony, but I don't think there was any advantage to it for me, as if it was daylight I wasn't down in the cabin anyway.

Does this mean you will be in an "odd" numbered room or an "even" numbered room...that is very important to an OCD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're on the port side of the ship and the ship docks on the port side, to an OCD does that mean you'll be docking faster than the folks on the starboard side?
