Club Class Mini-Suite, Forward Facing

[charliedalrymple]

We just received an email inviting us to bid on upgrades for our NZ cruise leaving on December 22.  I've submitted a bid for a Club Class mini-suite, but I'm on the fence about a forward facing Club Class mini-suite.  Can anyone tell me about those suites?  Is the wind too intense on sea days to enjoy the balcony?  (This is on Majestic, by the way.)

We have had them and I actually like them. The balcony barrier is not glass, but metal. It can be windy, but the balconies are large. Only other complaint some people have is the long walk to anything.  I see that as a bonus.
