A cabin is an enclosed room generally on a ship or an aircraft.
Sailing ships In sailing ships, the officers and paying passengers would have an individual or shared cabin. The commanding officer also known as the captain would have the grand cabin that normally spanned the stern with large windows, subdivided with movable panels that could be taken down in time of battle so that a small gun could be set up there or the large room used as an operating theatre. Modern warships In most modern warships the commanding officer has a main cabin, often adjacent to the ship's central control room (operations room), and a sea cabin adjacent to the bridge. Thus, when likely to be called from sleep or attending to administration, the CO can be at the Bridge or Ops room instantly. In the Star Trek science fiction series, the sea cabin has become the ready room which amply describes its relationship to the bridge and the captain's use of it. Officers will normally have their own cabins, which doubles as their office. Some senior non-commissioned officers may have a cabin for similar reasons. Passenger ships
