Can you get family rooms on cruise ships?

They're useful for large families who want to stay in the same room, and for families of any size looking for more space. Family cabin pricing varies widely, depending on the size of the room and how many people will be sharing it. (Cruise line fares are per person, not per room like hotels.)
