We are a family of 7 and would lie to take a cruise to Alaska. Are there options for staterooms that would accomidate us. (We do have a budget). We are interested going at the end of July 2009 

You might can fit in a suite; however, they are rather expensive.  You have to have an adult in each room, but then you can always switch once you get on board.  I would think it would be just as cheap to put three and four into rooms.

Hi Mommonster,

You most likely will have to book 2 rooms to cover 7 people. We have done 8 in 2 rooms but you just have to work out a schedule for showers. When you put 4 in a room the first 2 pay regular price and the other 2 pay a reduced price. I would say call 1-888-Carnival and work with a vacation planner. They can help you pick a room and work out the price. Carnival is having a one day only sale this Thursday 5/22. That would be a good day to call. Good luck

for that I would Call carnival direct, they have connecting cabins now on some of the ships, and they could work that out for you.  2 cabins would probably do, but your gonna be packed in.

If you get side by side balcony rooms they can take out the seperation and have a big balcony together.

Hi Mommonster,

The Spirit staterooms will accommodate a maximum of 4 guests. So you would have to split up with 3 in one cabin and 4 in the other.

I have done two adults and two teenagers in one balcony room.  You will be stepping on each other quite a bit.
