LittleBitBojangles Posted August 14, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Hi. I’m sailing solo on the Equinox in December. Aft cabin Deck 10 (Sky). I’m trying to get an idea of the view from the balcony. I have dreams of seeing the aft wake. I’ve not been able to find either an aft photo of the ship or see a layered side view “floor plan” of the ship- something that can give me an idea of what the view will be- obstructed by the flag, only see the metal overhang from the cabin below. Solo sailing means double fare. If my view isn’t what I’ve dreamed then I won’t spend all that hard saved money on an upgraded cabin. Thanks for all your sage advice. 🙏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just came off the Equinox in an S1Aft corner on deck 8 (also solo). It was FANTASTIC and the view is awesome. If you're in one of the couple of S2's Aft on 10 & 11 then congrats--you'll get a great view and at a really super price with only compromise being the side window and a sliver of side balcony. Have a great trip! PS Sorry the pic doesn't show much wake but sun was a bit off to the side. Trust me, you'll see the wake! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d have to sell my house in order to afford a S2. I’m paying $400 extra for an aft cabin which is in the center of Deck 10. As it is a 7 day CC Aft- not a suite- for a solo cruiser is $2800. Your view does look lovely. Thank you for your beautiful picture and well wishes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your beautiful picture and well wishes! i apologize for the unnecessary cabin info. Where you typed "sky" I thought you meant suite, not deck. Re-reading, it looks like a pretty obnoxious brag and it wasn't my intent. anyway, you will enjoy many hours out on the balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmhdoogalsatsea Posted August 15, 2018 #11 Share Posted August 15, 2018 😂😂...Isn’t cruising solo (except for the $$), the best vacation??? YES indeedy. I had avoided it for years out of fear that being solo wouldn't work well on a ship, but loved it last year. This year I had a friend come along for an 11 nighter, and that was fine, but it was wonderful to being back to "on my own" onboard last week! happy travels. PS I chatted with a couple on board who commented " Oh, you must meet lots of people on board when traveling solo." to which my quick, quirky and truthful reply was " NOT if I can help it!" :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
