You will not feel much motion on the Aloha deck even if you're far forward, the Grand is very smooth, especially on that route in June... it's pretty calm down there at that time of year. If you're far aft, the only thing you may feel is a little bit of vibration at times, but not much.

If they've assigned your cabin already, that's likely to be where you'll stay. I think one of the reasons is that the June sailings are close to sold out because of the Grand's unplanned return to the Caribbean during summer, and all of the bargains that came with it.

Upgrades go to past passengers (Platinum first), then by what you pay, so if you took an inside guarantee and you're not a frequent Princess passenger; you probably won't get upgraded further. They're also starting to shy away from upgrades far beyond your cabin type, i.e., you could be upgraded to a better inside cabin, but not as likely to go from an inside guarantee to outside, and very unlikely to go from an inside guarantee to a balcony or suite.

Have fun! We're on the sailing right before you...June 8th.
