About 14,000 potential guests (lower-berth capacity, all ships)

An estimate for planning, not a headcount. It uses each ship's lower-berth capacity. Real occupancy often runs higher, crew go ashore too, not everyone gets off, and schedules change or ships skip ports for weather. Check with your cruise line or Heather Hills from Flow Voyages.
