Thanks for everyone's input! This mirrors some of my thinking as well ... and the reality is that PIP wouldn't be possible if we weren't doing a cat F cabin. So, better to be on a cruise in the worst cabin on RSSC than to not be on the cruise, right? :) I agree with Karen about breakfast ... it's nice to have a meal on your balcony/in your room before you have to get dressed up for everybody!
