Andrea: All cabins (Voyager) have balconies - we have been happy on all decks midship but are not prone to seasickness so deck 9 was no problem. We experienced no vibration problems on 3 Voyager cruises. It is my favorite ship and just beautiful. I would call B&K for information. Go with best price midship. We have a couple joining us on Alaska cruise in August. He was sure he could find the "best" deal by researching discounted sites etc. Following 2 days of phone calls and internet looking he booked with B&K! We have used Regent's air and used FF points - depends on what works best for you. Joanna
