There's been a huge amount of fuss over Viking's new cabin layout -- it's supposed to make room for true suites and a good selection of balconies with room to sit. Founder Torstein Hagen described the plan to Cruise Critic thusly: Why do corridors have to run straight down the middle of a ship? By moving the corridor on Deck 3 one meter to the side, ship designers were able to squeeze in the extra space for real balconies you can sit on. The funny thing is that, unless you’re looking for it, you don't really notice that the corridor is not perfectly aligned with the center.
