Port or Starboard balcony for Norwegian Fjords? (Eclipse)

[spanner14]

Good morning,

 

Can anyone help me decide whether to go Deck 7 port or Deck 10 starboard for an August Norwegian Fjords cruise on Eclipse? Both cabins are near the forward elevators.

 

I know that aft balconies would probably be great but I'm limited to accessible cabins and both the 2B on Deck 7 Port and the C3 on Deck 10 Starboard are accessible (and affordable! ;))

 

I just wondered if one side or the other might have better views in the Fjords.

 

Thank you!

Hi,

My wife and I have done the Fjords 3 times and either side is fine. However if you are going as far north as the North Cape, then a starboard cabin would be more preferable.

I was on that cruise last year (well, a very similar one, in May) and had a starboard balcony. We had great views, particularly in Geiranger, so I'd recommend going for that side. That said, it's the sort of scenery that's all around - sailing in and out of fjords - so there were good views on both sides a lot of the time.

 

It's a lovely area, enjoy :)

Seems to me that on the way up you see one side from your balcony and on the way down you see the other side?

Ha, good point! :D

 

Thank you everyone, I think we'll go with Starboard. :)
