INDEPENDENCE DECK 12 CABIN QUESTIONS

[bigal3967]

We are looking at booking a 3 day cruise out of Port Canaveral on the Independence.  Has anyone stayed in the Panoramic view cabins and what was you experience?  Is the motion of the ship more noticeable than the lower decks?  Is the location good being that far Aft?  Just trying to figure out if we want to book one of those rooms.  Any help would be appreciated

are you sure its aft?  I did not think there were rooms aft just forward.  We are staying in spacious panoramic in 2 weeks on deck 12.  Also wondering about motion.  We have been on many cruises before and never got sick but I have heard this deck is more noticable.

They are forward, not aft.

 

Harr Travel has a cabin video on the Freedom of the Seas (sister ship) on YouTube for this type of cabin.  You may want to check it out to see if it is something for you.

 

As far as location and motion, the further forward and higher the deck you are the more motion you will feel.  However these large ships are very good when it comes to stabilization, unless you are going to be sailing through a storm, or trailing one, you shouldn't feel much in the way motion.  However, everyone has a different tolerance for that and it is all subjective to that individual.

Higher up will always have more motion.

 

We love those cabins.  Have one on Mariner coming up.  Very close to Solarium, so easy access.  Nice size.  We don't need a balcony.
