Spirit Starboard or Port

[TOMTOMRN331]

Looking at changing our room category and just curious if starboard or port had preferential views? Sea days I know it doesn't matter. Does the ship dock in the same orientation each time? Mostly interested when we are docked in Nassau as we are staying on ship.

 

Thanks in advance

No. The orientation always depends on several factors like weather, maintenance needs, crew training needs (mandatory lifeboat testing/drills), etc.

The captain turned the ship around when we docked in Nassau last week and the port side of the ship ended up facing the dock, but that was because we were in the last slip. In St. Thomas we tendered and in Tortola the starboard side was next to pier.

You won't tender in St. Thomas

Well, since we just tendered in St. Thomas aboard the Spirit, you really can't say that you won't. It all depends on how many ships are in port on that day. The day we were there, which was Wednesday, November 25th, we were one of 6 six ships, so we were tendered.

We're one of 4 ships scheduled for STT so fingers crossed we won't be tendering. I was surprised too but given the number of ships in port that day (11/25), totally understand. :)
