Creator's Key Takeaways

Ken, I wish someone had warned me how far my cabin would be from the elevators.

I had no idea my room would be directly under the noisy pool deck. I barely slept.

Why didn't I realize I'd be looking straight at a lifeboat instead of the ocean?

I'm in my 70s and I know firsthand how important comfort and convenience become when cruising when you're our age.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Always choose a midship cabin close to elevators.
✓Pick a cabin that has other cabin decks directly above and below to avoid noise.
✓Think realistically about your daily routine on a cruise before booking a balcony cabin.
✓Seriously consider an accessible cabin if you have any mobility needs.
