Creator's Key Takeaways

If you are a family of more than four people, here's the problem. It's going to be really hard at this point to find a cruise with rooms next to each other or connecting or room for all six of you.

My best advice for you is to be flexible. Be flexible on the dates you're looking to cruise, be flexible on your room category and room location.

Honestly, just get on the ship. You guys don't have to worry about connecting rooms, rooms next door.

If you are desperate to cruise this summer, the inventory is really, really low.

About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Description

Planning a summer cruise for a family of more than four can be tricky — especially if you’re booking late. Connecting rooms, rooms next door, or cabins that sleep six sell out fast, and summer inventory is already very limited. If you’re set on cruising this summer, flexibility is key: dates, ship, room category, and even location on the ship. The goal is to get you onboard — not necessarily in the perfect room setup. I help families navigate low availability, rising prices, and realistic options so you don’t have to guess or stress. Follow along with me! Please like, share, and subscribe.
