Separate cabins for snoring couple

Because of snoring, my wife and I require separate bedrooms when we
travel. I know some cruise ships offer two-bedroom "owner's" suites
at prohibitive (for us) prices, but do any lines offer regular cabins
that connect and can thus form a two-room suite. Any other ideas,
outside of divorce?

There are definitely adjoining cabins on ships, similar to what you'd
see in a hotel, with an interior door between them. Additionally, if
you opt for balcony cabins, the partition between the cabins can also
be opened, so that you can enjoy double the outside space. If you look
at deck plans, adjoining cabins are indicated in some fashion - on
Carnival (I just went over to their website to check) they have a
little white arrow between to cabins that are adjoining. Other cruise
lines will indicate it similarly.

The thing is, since you're each going to have your own cabin, you'll
be subject to potentially huge "single supplement" fares, sometimes
double what you'd pay to share a cabin. To avoid this, or at least
lessen the penalty, try to be flexible about dates, cruise line, ship,
itinerary. I've cruised solo in the past, and I'll basically ask my TA
to find me a deal - one in which I won't be gouged, just because I'm
traveling solo.

Ear plugs are an option, too..... :-)

Ear plugs?

White noise?

How about a medical evaluation to deal with the source of the snoring?

Or go on a Windjammer cruise and one of you sleep on deck

If snoring is a problem try earplugs. They are much cheaper than 2
cabins,

Yes, ditto what Rosalie said. A medical evaluation could lead to a solution,
and both of you might end up sleeping a lot better. Heavy snoring might
indicate a serious underlying medical condition.

Or, you could just get one cabin with a balcony and one of you could
sleep out there :-)

Seriously, you should see a Doctor regarding your
snoring. I was regarded as a "World Class" snorer
and it turned out I had a breathing problem that
was brought under control by a positive pressure
breating machine. Of course, now I need a power
outlet to operate the macine, but harmony rules.
Other than that, have youw wife use the earplugs.

So, if it's not the snoring that'll keep the wife awake, it's the
noise from the machine...what's the dif?

Seriously - the OP didn't ask us what to diagnose his snoring problem
- he asked about separate bedrooms on a cruise ship. Dontcha think
maybe he and his wife have already addressed the possible underlying
medical issues that may be causing his snoring? And if they have or
haven't, is it any of our business? I know everyone means well, but
I'm just reading all these posts and thinking, myob. The topic was
cruising in separate bedrooms, not how to cure snoring.
