Aft staterooms on the Fantasy, avoid?

[Flossbolna]

On the transatlantic we just did on the Fantasy we felt the vibrations when we were having dinner at AP and Palo, which both are aft. Especially in Palo it was nearly unbearable. We had a lovely dinner, but were singled we could escape the shaking. The ship was going pretty much at full speed then (just under 20 kn) and I am sure that contributed. We had a OGT cabin and discussed how bad it would have been to be assigned an aft cabin.

We had done two previous cruises on the Fantasy and never had noticed the vibrations in the dining room before.

That's interesting, because I don't remember feeling it in AP or Palo (or Remy) on the EBTA! I do remember feeling the engines/thrusters start up (I think it was Cadiz, it was a later all aboard time and we had main dinner seating so were already at dinner when we left port). I guess which night would make a difference as well as to what we felt/didn't feel.
