Q? How many cabins considered a group?

Maybe someone who is a TA out here can help me. I just recently booked
the Voyager OTS, 5-night Bermuda and surprisingly got two other parties
to book with us. Currently we have a total of 3 cabins. How many is
needed to get a group rate on RCI? And how does it work? Do you get like
one COMP cabin per so many booked? Is there any $ savings per cabin?
Just curious since I may try to form a small group cruise.

I'm not sure about RCI, but for NCL and others it takes 8 cabins. I was
fortunate in that this is exactly the amount we booked on an upcoming
family cruise. Since I was taking care of the booking arrangements, my
fare is free (except for port/taxes. So we upgraded to a balcony!

Princess told me that 5 cabins and min 10 pax makes a group.

That may be true for some soft sailings in off-peak seasons. For example,
it used to be fairly common to get one for five for Fall Caribbean sailings.
Here lately, that is not being offered as often.

The "usual" group minimum is eight cabins with one passenger free.

I got clarification from Royal Caribbean. It is eight (8) cabins to be
considered a group. Thanks all for your input!
