CU64 Posted November 15, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Queen bed, not king in B1 Sirena. We sleep better in twin. Will it make the cabin really crowded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghdool Posted November 15, 2019 #2 Share Posted November 15, 2019 I'm travelling on Sirena in a few weeks. We usually sleep in king beds. The separated beds is a compromise. I asked for the beds to be separated and my TA has just confirmed it for me. I doubt they will move them too far apart so it probably wont make it any more crowded than usual. Hopefully someone with some experience with this will respond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenMurphy Posted November 15, 2019 #3 Share Posted November 15, 2019 what will happen is: the little cupboard will be moved from the side of the bed and placed inn the centre of the two beds. Still the same amount of room Jxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvmovielover Posted November 15, 2019 #4 Share Posted November 15, 2019 +1 on space staying about the same. Also, if they have not separated the beds when you board (this happened to us who prefer the twin mode more than once, just locate one of the workers in the hall and tell them to separate the beds. It is always done pretty quickly whether you found the person assigned to your cabin or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still the same amount of room Jxx The nightstands appear to be less than 18" wide. With the twin bed configuration, I assume the most noticeable tight space would be at the lower outside corner of the bed that is closest to the balcony (right across from the outer corner of the desk) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tropicalkerry2002 Posted November 15, 2019 #6 Share Posted November 15, 2019 when we requested twins in Sept on Regatta, they separated the beds, but kept them side by side. The steward asked if this was okay, and we said we'd try it: Perfect!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted November 15, 2019 #7 Share Posted November 15, 2019 They seem to be a large Queen not a King I have not split them so cannot comment on the space They are 2 beds pushed together so I do not really feel DH tossing in the night so far 😉 unlike the king bed at home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go-Bucks! Posted November 17, 2019 #8 Share Posted November 17, 2019 The 2 separate beds are narrower than a true "twin" bed. Two real twin beds, when pushed together, equals the width of a king sized bed. The Oceania beds, when pushed together, make the size a Queen bed.

Two real twin beds, when pushed together, equals the width of a king sized bed. The Oceania beds, when pushed together, make the size a Queen bed. Well, not exactly. The complete bed on Oceania is not a Queen width. Rather, it is a Cal King width. Two standard twin beds (each 39" wide) placed side by side is 2" wider than a standard King (76" wide). However, you are correct that the twins on Oceania are a tad narrow - each about 36" wide. Placed together, they make a Cal King width which, at 72" wide, is slightly less than a traditional King width but considerable wider than a Queen (60"). Next time you're on Oceania, lay across the bed. If you're taller than 5 feet and you're hanging over the width of a complete bed, you'll quickly realize that it is not a Queen sized bed (i.e., 60" wide).

tropicalkerry2002 Posted November 17, 2019 #12 Share Posted November 17, 2019 After a similar discussion a few years ago, I actually MEASURED the bed. It was 66 inches wide; halfway between a queen and a king. And yes, I have a measuring tape in my purse. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sny Posted November 20, 2019 #15 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Have had the bed split in PH on Regatta. Really made no difference in space; as, unless you ask them to move them apart, the beds will be left side by side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azam71209 Posted November 27, 2019 #16 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I've done this. You can tell them where you want the nightstands. They are very accommodating but don't be surprised if the bed hasn't been separated when you arrive. Agree with other poster, just ask someone and it will be take care of.
