I just booked a K-Quad cabin #6213, would love to know who else is coming aboard.

Nope, I'm on K-quad 9527. I would like to know with who I am too.....

You guys are lucky, you are not with me!

I am your cabin mate. here is my pic so you will recognize me if you see me before cruise.

You can actually ask UMC to put you in contact with your cabin mates!

Sometimes the surprise is fun though too... be the first there and wait in the cabin all like, .

Even if you manage to get someone you disagree with (or happen to win the the first night blanket-hog-war because you were all to lazy/drunken to separate the ground beds before crashing - apparently that makes some people angry and may cause them to kick you right the fuck outta the cabin first thing in the morning ooops!) try to make it work and keep the peace. I got the fuck out and went for a boozy, but fancy breakfast even though inside I was a little ruffled about it lol. These things happen! It smoothed out as we cruised.

My other cabinmate was an absolute delight and we had many hilarious moments despite being complete polar opposites in many ways. I honestly spent maybe one afternoon with a cabinmate total and a few hours here and there in the morning or seeing one another on the go. The cabins barely matter

Krys, sounds about right. I'm sure we'll all be too drunk the first night... And each night after.

All too true.

...I saw people passed out before muster drill even happened .

Feh, (drinking) rookies. I plan on maintaining a decent, steady buzz throughout the trip. I can see how travel and pre-parties might take the piss out of some people, though.

Given that I'm going to be in a quad myself, I'm gonna try and be in there before drinking to make sure shit's all set for when I crash later on. Totally not sure how the beds situation is gonna go, because although it's a quad, the cabin's description only mentions two beds and a couch. *shrugs*

I understand that everyone will pretty much be happy and get along, save one or two fuckheads (they seem to pop up everywhere, amirite?). I also understand wanting to meet your cabin mates, since it's a good opportunity to meet people from who even knows where. Well, it seems like even if you didn't have cabin mates or never saw them, there's still gonna be lots of opportunities to meet people. This board kinda proves it.

My cabin is 8674, so Stranger I'm not your roomie. :( If I see you on the ship, though, I'd definitely say hi. As for myself, I need to get a photo here. Gotta find a recent one that doesn't suck, though.

I'm my own cabinmate!



UMC can give you details on your cabin mates. The Forum used to be such a great place to meet and mingle before the cruises. Facebook has a private group https://www.facebook.com/groups/182819641768657/ that's a lot of fun.


It's also very easy to meet cruisers while on land--- we kind of stood out in Miami....
