majosa Posted September 4, 2007 #1 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Okay we will be getting a inside room on the Fantasy on September 17. I have read on here that the 2 twin beds can convert to a king as well as others saying it only converts to a queen. Which is it? Thank you!

Sugarland Cruiser Posted September 4, 2007 #3 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I look at it like this. At home my kING boxspring is 2 twin boxsprings under a KING matterss. So I assume it is a king. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PINEVIEW01 Posted September 4, 2007 #4 Share Posted September 4, 2007 My first real job was in a furniture store. Under your King size bed is two twin (3'3" wide) extra long box spirngs. The twins on the ship are not true twins and are not extra long. You really are only getting a short queen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribbean dreams Posted September 4, 2007 #5 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I guess some people can't read, in all the carnival books & online it says..."Twin bed/king.:rolleyes: P.S wasn't speaking of the OP, was speaking to the people telling the OP, that 2 twins = a queen.

trock Posted September 5, 2007 #9 Share Posted September 5, 2007 :D Mattress sizes vary.. I worked for Direct Buy and mattresses were my specialty (no funny comments people lol :D ) There are various sizes of twins/ queens/ kings.. Even hotel sizes can measure differently I would say its safe to say they are larger than a queen but smaller than a traditional king.. Twin Mattress Size (Single): 39" x 75" Full Mattress Size (Double): 54" x 75" Long Twin Mattress Size: 39" x 80" Queen Mattress Size: 60" x 80" King Mattress: 76" x 80" California King Mattress Size: 72" x 84" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is assuming you are oriented "properly" to the head and foot of the bed. I think Liv may have been alluding to the rarely used, alternate perpendicular orientation, in which case it would give you a solid 4 inches of extra rolling room. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truecruiser Posted September 5, 2007 #18 Share Posted September 5, 2007 OP, yes. 2 twin beds can be configured to a king if you'd like. and, there are some ships that have queens too, i believe. LOL;) The californians are narrower and longer.. Eastern or regular Kings are wider.. funny...people always refer to them as being bigger, but i just looked it up b/c of your post, and yes they are 4" longer, but they chop 4" off of the width. that's just stupid if ya ask me, LOL. keep the 4, and add the 4 FTLOG!:p ...I think Liv may have been alluding to the rarely used, alternate perpendicular orientation, in which case it would give you a solid 4 inches of extra rolling room. :D lol, again, repete. ...Well then i guess you need to take height into account.. for some reason...i'm thinking he did.:p :cool: ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read on here that the 2 twin beds can convert to a king as well as others saying it only converts to a queen. Which is it? Thank you! I have a king bed at home and didn't really notice any difference in size in the bed on the Fantasy. It may be a little smaller but not much. My DH and I have trouble sleeping in a queen sized bed because I am a light sleeper and he moves around a lot but I slept great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astropilot Posted September 6, 2007 #22 Share Posted September 6, 2007 It'll be a knig, and if Fantasy has the new bedding it will very comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoinCruisin Posted September 6, 2007 #24 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Is that bedding everything people say it is? I believe all the ships have the new bedding (although on many ships, it's no longer "new" :p LOL) It's okay... WAY better than what they had before, of course, it's not as comfy as what I have at home, but I wouldn't expect it to be. There are some hotels that have REALLY gone above and beyond and created an "experience" with their bedding, the bedding on Carnival is not that... but it is nice... certainly not something I would run home and buy though.

Thirsty Cruiser Posted September 6, 2007 #25 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Is that bedding everything people say it is? Pillows are soft, too soft for me though. Beds are pretty firm. Comforters are great. I took many a mid-morning-post-breakfast-beer-nap in these beds and had no trouble sleeping :o :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
