Epic, Getaway, or Breakaway for family cruise 12/2014

Planning a family cruise for after Christmas. Just got back from the Epic and loved it. Service could be a little faster in the free restaurants, but other than that, very few complaints.

 

We are Pearl fans and missed the great windows for views, but the entertainment made up for that. Trying to decide whether to take two or three families on a Christmas cruise for this year.

 

Which ship? Getaway, Breakaway, or Epic? I have one family of five. Is it less expensive for a family suite, or to get a balcony room across from an inside room. They have teenage girls and it may be four to a room for the girls if a cousin is included.

If I had that choice, I'd only sail out of a warm weather port in December, so I'd automatically rule out Breakaway.

One other thought, in case you didn't see the other thread.....Epic is moving permanently to Europe in 2015. So if you want to get one more trip on the Epic without an overseas flight, that might be a consideration.
