Deck Plans Lie: The Cruise Cabin Mistakes That Cost You

What if the “same” cruise cabin can either feel perfect… or quietly wreck your sleep, your balcony view, and your daily rhythm onboard? Melissa breaks down the real gamble behind stateroom selection and why deck plans can mislead you, even on newer ships.

She explains the GTY (guarantee) cabin trade-off, the hidden reasons some cabins cost less, and the simple research step that exposes what the cruise line doesn’t clearly show. You’ll also hear the biggest red flags to avoid (noise, smoke, motion, and surprise obstructions), plus when a lower deck can actually be the smartest choice. If you want a smoother cruise without cabin regret, this is the checklist to use before you book.
