This is very interesting. Glad that you got the reservations.

However, we had understood that overnight travelers must have a cabin, so there is not "sleeping in the public areas".
Is there any chance that they'll assign cabins later, "something from whatever remains" for you, closer to sailing, or even at sailing?
Sort of like a "guarantee" on a regular cruise line?

I would think that they'd want to do something to avoid having a few nights here and there plucked out of several different cabins on full RT voyages such that the RT reservations aren't available (or, not staying in the same cabin/suite, which is how the RT bookings are made).

Does anyone know how Hurtigruten manages this potential problem?
