Kabineplads

Kabineplads is a Danish term that refers to the space or berths inside a private cabin on passenger vessels, trains, or other transport where sleeping accommodations are provided. The word combines kabine (cabin) and plads (space or spot). In practice, kabineplads denotes how many persons can be accommodated in a cabin or the specific bed spaces within that cabin. The term is most commonly used in maritime and rail contexts, where cabins are rented for a voyage or journey and the booking is tied to the number of berths rather than the entire cabin.

On ferries and cruise ships, cabins vary in size and arrangement, with different numbers of berths such as beds or bunks. The allocation of kabineplads may influence the total price and the booking options offered by the operator. In booking systems, customers are often shown the available kabineplads for a given cabin category, for example indicating how many places are included in the cabin.

Regulatory and contractual aspects include that passenger capacity within a cabin is subject to safety certificates and ship regulations. Operators typically publish the maximum berths per cabin, and exceeding the stated kabineplads is not allowed for safety reasons. Pricing generally depends on the number of berths and the occupancy of the cabin, and reductions or suites may exist for additional travelers within the allocated kabineplads.
