Allure’s capacity is either 5,400 or 6,300, depending on whether you fill “lower berths” or “all berths.” Most people say the Allure will carry 6,000 passengers, so using that figure the Allure would be next-to-last of the ships ranked here.<\/p>\n Conclusion: Big is not always most spacious.<\/p>\n DAILY DEAL:<\/strong><\/span> So much is made of the sizes of cruise ships, isn’t it?
