1A or C3 for same money. Which?

[PoppyandNana]

For an upcoming Caribbean we can have the choice of a 1A on the slant facing forward amidships OR a C3 on deck ten in a normal cabin fairly far forward.

 

$40 separates the two. Which would you choose?

[Essiesmom]

Which deck? I would not go for deck 6 for the 1A, but for other decks, I would go for the 1A over the C3 unless you want the concierge perks. EM

[Duanerice1]

Yea, depends on exact location but I do like a larger balcony. For the C3 they do have footstools which make sitting on the balcony a bit nicer. Other than footstools the other perks would not outweigh the larger balcony.

 

No one can answer but you.

Do you need the Captain's Club points? Concierge gives extra over verandah.

I would take C3 because of more CC points, Concierge perks and priority boarding/lunch and disembarkation...

[TeaBag]

if tier points mean anything to you, you will get 2 more/day in the C3 than you will in the 1A. You will also get the bottle of sparkling wine in your cabin and the crudites each day (sometimes edible, sometimes not!), plus lunch in the MDR on embarkation day.

 

In the 1A you get the fabulous balcony.

I would go for the 1A large hump balcony cabin especially in the Caribbean. Don't care for the crudites and lunch in MDR is only till 1 pm on embarkation day.

You don't say which ship and that matters. If you're talking about an M-Class, then definitely get the extra square footage that the C-Class offers. If you're talking about S-Class, then go with the C-Class if you want more points.

Wouldn't be M class because they don't have 1A cabins ;).

Ship is the Silhouette. The 1A is on deck 9; the C3 is on ten.

[QuakerBoy]

1A all the way for location.

[BILL-WI]

The 1A any day over the C3. The 1A will have a balcony that is 1.5 times to 2 times lager than a normal cabin. You will spend time on your balcony in the Caribbean.

Another vote for the 1A and the big balcony and great location (unless you really need/want the extra CC points).

[MustBCruzn]

1A all the way for location.

 

Ditto! The extra large balcony is wonderful!

[Cruise Junky]

I'm faced with the same thing, they are the same price on Solstice next year, we took the 1A first off the hump

[nmg85]

1A for me

[drakes2]

1 A ..... no question!

[pumpkin 11]

1A for sure. If spending time outside is something you do a lot, I would choose the 1A. Deck nine on s-class is great. It's nice to have a private space to escape from the crowded upper decks. If not, take the CC points if you're not elite.

The C3 and use your CC 1 cat upgrade to get the C2 on the hump on deck 9.
