HI
For our anniversary we are going to have a suite with a butler! In looking over the deckplans it looks like the AB's are larger, however the AC's on deck 10 specifically stateroom 10000 look very appealing. I know the wind might be a factor in 10000 but am more interested in the room. Has anyone actually seen both, that can say AB's are definetly bigger and better than the AC's. I guess I want the pro's and the con's on both. I am thrilled to pieces to have either one! This will be our 1st butler experience!

And here is some info on the AC suite ...

So, the AB suite is larger and is on the side. The AC suite has a larger balcony and is on the front. I was on the Star in Oct 2005. I spoke with some people in the AC suite. They said the wind was not a big factor. However, when we were south bound, there was a tail wind. The net effects was close to zero (the ship and the air were both moving south at about the same speed). When we were north bound the ship was headed into the wind. I felt it on the observation deck. So, do you want a bigger room, or a bigger balcony with a great view, but perhaps a lot of wind?
