I think I’ve officially overthought this and could use some real-world input. I’ve read and looked at all the pictures and comments here and in flyertalk as well.

Main question: Can I get by with a Origional Cabin?

For those who’ve done similar trips:

Was the Cabin enough for ~10–11 days with a possible laundry refresh?

I’m not too concerned about overhead bin fit, I know if I go with a Plus it can be hit or miss and I’m US based, so it should be fine over here if I need to go that route. I’m more focused on whether the extra space is actually warranted.

TLDR: On the fence about a cabin or cabin plus
