Fantasy cabin selection aft balcony

[PrincessEsq]

I’m new to Disney and still trying to figure out the cabin categories. I plan to book on Fantasy and it appears the aft balconies are 5E. They’re available on decks 6-9 for the same price so I’m trying to decide what’s the best cabin (6910, 7194, 8684, 9174 or 9674).

We love the aft balconies. Have 9174 booked for a cruise this October. The verandas are huge and you get two chairs and two loungers. You can't go wrong with any of those choices.

It's all about what is best for you.

Deck 9/10 is great for quick 1 flight of stairs up to the pool deck but you will hear some noise from Cabanas.
Deck 5/6 is nice if you have kids in the kids club and puts you closer to the activities on decks 3/4/5. But then you are an elevator ride or 5 flights of stairs away from the pool deck.
Deck 8 has the aft laundry room, for the longer cruises it's nice for not having to take your luggage up/down a floor or to the other end of the ship.

Almost every section/ floor has something that can make it the best room for someone but also the worst room for someone else.

Aft verandahs are our favorite. We have stayed in 8188 and 9174. Both had slightly wider verandahs due to the housekeeping closet being next to those rooms. The deck 8 aft was very convenient for laundry access as well  I would choose deck 8 or higher to avoid the aft flag blocking your view.
