Are the ships still divided by class?
If there aren't
classes, then how come there is such a variety in rates?
If I can get the same food and entertainment as the people in the expensive
cabins, then shouldn't
everyone book the cheapest cabins? I won't
be in my
cabin much anyway, right?

No, almost every ship has common areas. You'll eat the
same food in the same dining rooms and sit together at the same shows.

It's
the cabins. Your cabin's
size, bed arrangement,
view and location will determine your rate. The small lower, inside cabins are
the least expensive. As you move to the outside and/or move up decks, your rates
will increase. The upper deck suites with the outside verandas are the most
expensive.

Not everyone will be happy in those cabins and a little
extra cost could make for a much better vacation. You will spend some time in
your cabin and it will be your home for the entire cruise, so space is an
important consideration. You'll have to decide if the price difference is
worth it to you. The Cruise Lines price in gradients so you might spend a little
more to get a porthole or a more convenient location to save some steps. If you
always stay in the suite at the nicest hotels, don't expect the smallest cabin
to make you happy.
