The cheapest option is

> 13 square feet “Virtual Inside” stateroom

I can't wrap my mind with how this works, is it like a capsule? For 3 years?!

They forgot trailing zero. It should be 130 sq ft[1]. Looks like no window too.

It's 130 sqft. CNN can't even proofread their advertiser press release retypes.

It couldn't work. 6 feet by 2.1666667 feet by 1 foot (edit: or any height, since it's sqft)? A normal sized adult person could not fit in such a space without breaking their shoulders

It’s square feet. Not cubed feet. The height of the ceiling doesn’t play in to that. So it would be a 6 by 2.1 ft room with a 7 or 8 foot ceiling.

Regardless, it sounds like 130 square feet is the actual measurement.

Even a small single bed is about 13 sq. ft so it has to be wrong.
