Alaska Cruise - deck 14 or 12?

[PixieMom3]

On the Bliss and currently have rooms next to each other,  port side, on deck 14 (with cabins above and below). Looks like there may be rooms available that connect on deck 12. If they are still available is there any advantage (other than the connecting door) by going to deck 12? Would starboard be better for Alaska if they have something there?

Deck 14 near the forward stairs is good. A few steps from the observation lounge food and beverage on Deck 15. Port side marginally better, but nothing significant.

We did Alaska on the Sun and booked an Aft-balcony, which was perfect.  You didn't have the cold wind like you would on either starboard or port and you could see so much.

If you are going one way from Vancouver to Seward, book starboard unless you go with an aft.   Even if you do port, in both Glacier Bay and the Hubbard Glacier the Captain will do a 360 so everyone can see the glaciers.
