Need Help Booking Family of Five!

You could always look to expand your horizons.

There are a number of other cruise lines that do offer family cabins for 5
(Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, etc.). Plus, with options such as the hugely
popular Royal Caribbean Voyager Class Ships (with the rock climbing walls,
ice skating rinks, in-line skating tracks, miniature golf courses, and
Johnny Rockets Burgers) you might find something that's an even better fit
for you and your family. Or if you wanted something more elegant, the
Celebrity Century class and Millennium class ships have family cabins with a
sliding French Style Door divider that separates the cabin into 2 sections
with a queen bed on one side and 3 single beds on the other side.

I'm looking for advice when booking my family of five on Carnival. We
have been on six previous Carnival ships; three Fantasy class and on the
Victory three times. Have always been able to book one cabin for the five
of us (2 adults, 3 kids ages 17, 11 & 9).
Can this be done on the Conquest and Spirit class vessels? All online
sites won't let you book more than 4 per cabin on these ships. Don't want
to split up the 'family' on our 'family' vacation and, to be honest, you
save $$$ when booking one cabin as opposed to two. This greatly concerns
me since Carnival doesn't seem to be building anything but Conquest class
ships in the near future.
Is there any way around this?
Any family of five in the same situation?
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Feel free to e-mail me directly if you prefer at

Why not just call the toll free number of the online agency?
They should be able to help you, or contact Carnival directly.
Deck plans should show how much bedding is in each cabin.

Have you considered adjoining cabins?
