138east Posted August 3, 2019 #1 Share Posted August 3, 2019 If I book Empress, do I want to be forward or aft and why? Which decks do I want to look at? The cabins are small so I’d like to have good access to the public areas. One one of the larger RCL ships I would typically be booking aft near the elevators because of the WJ, dining, and Viking Crown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelplus Posted August 3, 2019 #2 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Middle is the best because of the motion. Empress is a small ship so do you want to be closer to the theater or Main dining room? Also being 6 cabins away from the elevator and stairs is a bonus, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tatka Posted August 3, 2019 #3 Share Posted August 3, 2019 We just booked new amazing Bermuda days nights 3 nights itinerary with St George’s and Hamilton (couldn’t pass)! inside at 8th floor. Honestly ... even on larger Grander everything is very close. On Empress we feel if public are even closer we will gain tons of weight! 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marci22 Posted August 3, 2019 #4 Share Posted August 3, 2019 I would choose mid to aft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might I see you then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am booked on May 11. I saw that you might be with your husband. That would be great as we have been missing each other in the winter. I also saw that Carol M will be on that sailing. I am booked on deck 7 by the forward elevators. Some other friends from the Explorer and Anthem are looking at these cruises as well. I’m really excited about docking in St George and Hamilton as well as sailing between the two docks. I have MTD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Priszm Posted August 5, 2019 #7 Share Posted August 5, 2019 This past April I was in 7123 (or maybe 7125) and the location was fantastic! Very centrally located, no noise issues at all. Although honestly, with it being a smaller ship it doesn't take long to get anywhere. I highly recommend you go read "Empress B2B - 14 Nights on the Biggest Little Ship" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Carol. It will be so nice to see you again. We also have MTD. Love Bermuda and could not pass up the chance to dock in Hamilton and St. George. I will be sailing on Anthem the cruise before you do this year. Missed last winter all together because I had to take care of my mom. I also have several friends that I met on Celebrity Summit many years ago that have also booked this sailing. I feel like I will know half the folks on board.
