Hi Kaboochi,

I'm not sure about the S9's but as far as the S7 cabins. I can tell you the only S7's that sleep four are on Deck 13. These are the ones that are just under the bridge and are suspected to be "hull balconies" all the other S7's on the Breakaway only sleep 3. There are no floor plans yet for the S6 & S7 cabins.

Good luck with your search.

I think that the highlighted phrase is the key to your query.

 

Cabins on a ship are designed for two people. Many will hold three, four, five or even more. But the cabins are designed around the concept of double occupancy.

 

Try to look at it like the bench seat in a car. These are also designed for two people. However, you can squeeze a third adult in the middle...or even two small children. This can work for a trip to a local restaurant...however, it probably isn't going to be the best arrangement for a cross country trip!

 

So sure, you can put four adults in the room...it is the "comfortably" part that you might have trouble with. Some people don't mind three or four people in a cabin. Others feel crowded with just two people in the room! :eek:

Too true!

After the 2bed(S4:559:516/43) the S6/S7 are probably the next best , specultion is they are more like an S5 on a Jewel class with the seperate living room so more practical for 4pax.

 

However they are not all the same

 

S7 13106 is marked as a 3 berth single sofa bed with wheelchair access tub and shower also smaller(409:377/32) than the other S7(419:387/32)

 

S7 13706 is 4 berth with single sofa and a pullman

 

other S7 3berth with single sofa.

 

S6 aft are much bigger(505:430/75)

eg:

The S6/S7 look to be much better value than the courtyard S5(334:280/56) which are tiny in comparison.

Missed this key piece of info.

 

What will work comfortably for one group of four may not work for another group.

 

Especialy if sharing beds is an issue.
