Don has loved these cabins on his cruises! I for one like the privacy of my own veranda, but say if you can get it, go for it if it saves a lot! Thing about SS, by the time they reduce the price, those cabins may be gone! Not sure their policy of reducing to new reductions once you've reserved.

Karen, SS ships were build in the same shipyard as Mariner and Voyager. There are minimal differences in the cabins, mostly in the soft furnishings....upholstery in the furniture is a different color scheme. Other than that, exactly the same. If you like RSSC ships, you will like SS ships.
