need help with 5 passengers

[tacobird]

We are taking a cruise on NCL in Sept. 3 adults and 2 kids. If there are 4 to a cabin the price for the first 2 passengers is raised by $100 and the 3rd and 4th passenger is half that price. If we put one passenger alone their price is doubled. Another option is to put one of the kids in the other cabin and pay for 2 reg price passengers. I am also wondering about the single passenger match up. Does NCL have such a thing? Put two single passengers in a cabin at the regular fare? Any other suggestions would be helpful.

What ship are you looking at? We do 3 and 2. We book adjoining rooms, list one adult in each. There are not many cabins that hold 5 except some of the suites and forget 6 as I have 4 children.

Ditto for us. You end up paying for 4 full fares plus one discounted "3rd in a room" rate. It's still cheaper than a suite.

Something we've done that works pretty well is to book 2 cabins across the hall from each other ... one inside (cheap!) and one outside or balcony. We book an adult into each cabin and then the kids sleep in the inside one ... depends on the age of your kids, I guess, and how much you trust them, but it's worked very well for us. When they were younger, we used to do the adjoining cabins and leave the connecting door open. The AB category is also set up for 5 passengers ... it runs a little more, but you get special embarkation, debarkation, butler and concierge as well, so sometimes it can be worth it. We're doing that on our next cruise!
