Question for Cuddlers: Does anyone else fall in-between the mattresses?

[workfromship]

This has been a problem on every Carnival ship we have been on. The king size bed is just two twin mattresses put together so I end up slowly sinking in between the mattresses throughout the night.

 

Do any other couples have this issue? Has anyone come up with a clever workaround?

I think it depends on how tight they have those mattresses. Sometimes it's a problem and sometimes it isn't.

Turn the mattresses sideways.

Haven't had a problem at all.  The beds are setup similar to my split king adjustable bed at home.

I like this idea! The only issue I see is that it makes the overall length of the bed shorter :(

 

I wish the stewards had a sturdier way of binding the mattresses together.

We have experienced this from time to time, but we are just off a Back to Back on the Mardi Gras and didn’t have this issue at all. In fact it was the most comfortable bed we have ever had at sea.

First time on the Splendor, we didn't have this problem. So I thought nothing of it and booked the exact same room for our next cruise. Some where in the 9 months between cruises something happened and we ended up with this problem. 

Hubby kept falling in the crack. Told him it wouldn't be a problem if he stuck to his side of the bed. 🤷‍♀️😆

6 years ago we went on first Carnival cruise on Elation. There was a storm we were going around but it was a rough ride. Our room was in the front porthole on deck 6. To get down the hall we had to hold on the the walls it was so rough. I remember wedging myself into that Crack in the bed so I would not roll out of bed. LOL!!! My pour husband fell out a time or two. WE HAD A GREAT TIME!!!!
