easybay Posted April 27, 2012 #1 Share Posted April 27, 2012 The cabins I am looking at are 9588 (Balcony $1100 pp) and 9572 (Junior Suite $1860 pp). Is the extra space worth the extra 1500 for the week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scubadoobie2 Posted April 27, 2012 #2 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I can't speak from experience because I have sailed only in balcony cabins. If you won't miss the money, why not? I'm a little on the cheap side; would rather use the difference for excursions, etc. But, for my 5/20/12 Eastern Med cruise I booked a balcony (again) and then learned that due to price drops a JS was only a TOTAL of $222 more for the two of us -- wife & me -- for the entire cruise. Naturally, I JUMPED on it. I'm sure it'll be worth $222 more especially since it is also a hump cabin. Go with the right attitudge -- VACATION TIME, HAVE FUN! -- and you'll be happy with whatever cabin you choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easybay Posted April 27, 2012 Author #3 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Well, I don't want to cheap out.........but the extra $1500 could nicely pay our bar tab, or our excursions! This is definately an upgrade from our last cruise (a last minute buy - outside cabin with obstructed view, that was on a deck with people walking by)! I keep thinking how we will probably only be in our room to sleep and change..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Host Star Posted April 28, 2012 #4 Share Posted April 28, 2012 if you are working towards becoming a diamond member of RCI then I would go with the jr. suite,,, double points .. besides there is a lot more room in the cabin... if this cruise is a long way out,, you could book the balcony and watch for a price drop on the jr. suite...

cb at sea Posted April 28, 2012 #5 Share Posted April 28, 2012 We don't even check the price of anything smaller than a JS anymore....they are more the size of a hotel room.....tried a smaller cabin on our 1st cruise,..NEVER again! Back then, a superior OV had a tub, so we booked that....it was so small, both of us couldn't stand or walk at the same time. So, it's JS"s all the way,now...must have a bathtub and more space! I don't vacation to be cramped! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
