Didn't know that but thanks. I will have a look at Seabourn. Would you say that is the best that is sailing in the Med?

One thing to be aware of is that cruise fares are per person, so what you will need to look at is whether a stateroom holds a 3rd person or not (some cabins do, some don't). Depending on the cruise line, the third bed will either be a sofa bed or a drop down bunk, but it just depends (if it's for a child under 2, some lines will offer a crib/pack and play for the child - but you still have to book a room that is rated for 3 people). Some lines will discount the third person in a cabin, some won't. It also can depend on how sold out a cruise is if they will discount or even allow for a 3rd person in a room.
Ok thanks.
