Cruising with 3 adults and need 2 cabins

[pooh/tigger]

First, I had no idea where to ask this question so admins, if this isn't the right section, I sincerely apologize.

 

We are 3 adults cruising in Jan or Feb of 2016. Taking our 90 year old mother on her first cruise to celebrate her birthday.

 

I have been checking most of the cruise lines for pricing and cabin choices and we are getting back a double occupancy for our mothers rate.

 

Yes, I have checked out Norwegians studio but the quotes given are very close to the double occupancy rate for 2 people in a inside cabin.

 

Would appreciate some help if folks know a secret or way around this. We can't do one cabin with all 3. Not sure we would get much sleep with all the noise and waking up (turning lights and TV on and off) mom does.

 

Trying to do this on the cheap because later in 2016 we are doing one for our 40th anniversary and we want to go all out in a nice suite.

 

Thanks for the help.

Yes...cabins are priced BASED ON DOUBLE OCCUPANCY...so you need to look at the price of the CABIN...not the price "per person".

 

If she has a friend willing to come and pay her share, then that might work. Otherwise, you simply will have to pay the price.

Thank you. We knew that. I was asking if anyone knew any ways around it?

 

I understand there may not be but doesn't hurt to ask.

there is no way around the single supplement.

 

If you have 3 adults and one wants their own cabin they will pay twice the cruise fare (one for taxes and port charges)

Another perspective on this is to book a mini-suite or a suite and all share, it can look reasonably priced against a two cabin strategy but then you get a well decent cabin. Split three ways it can look good value per person.
