    I have made the request to have the name of the thread  changed to the Star of the Seas Blocks Are In The House!.

    Let's see what happens. 

     

    Thanks CruiseCritic for the name update!! Much appreciated, except you forgot the word 'the' between of & Seas (or did I forget in the request?! 🤔)

    Do you like your cabin?

    I just used the barcode trick, too.  We are sailing on Mariner tomorrow; that gty cabin was assigned weeks ago.  We just made another Mariner gty booking 4 weeks later.  When I did the barcode trick, I thought I might be looking at the set sail pass for the first cruise, but, no, the barcode indicates they will assign us the exact same, perfectly nice balcony cabin again.  

     

    I do. It's a large interior with a couch.
    My first interior cabin with a couch. I've upgraded from a chair! 😁
    It's a connecting room. I hope that the neighbours are quiet.

    As you probably know, the cruiselines do not have to tell gty bookings their cabin assignment until boarding day.  If they wish to keep the flexibility, the cruiseline is allowed to quietly make (and re-make, if necessary) their plans for the gty booking assignments in their company computer without telling the passenger until boarding.  Of course, we often do know our assignments sooner.

     

    When the muster station and deck are on the set sail pass, you should expect to find an unofficial cabin assignment hidden in the set sail barcode if you use the “bar code trick.”  At this stage, the system seems to have pre-selected and held a cabin for that gty booking, though the company has not yet made the assignment official.  People routinely report eventually being assigned those cabins; I have been.  Why is the company waiting?  I would guess perhaps they are retaining some flexibility in case a very unusual situation arises and some guests just have to be re-arranged, but that’s just my guess.  

     

    Thank you for this reply. Much appreciated.

    You can scan the barcode. you can see your assigned room number if it has been assigned "secretly" (ie not notifying you of the cabin number yet) I knew my cabin number weeks before they sent me it.

    Go to the app, add your doc to Apple Wallet - the number listed after the - is likely your room number.  Was true in our case twice.  You can always remove the checkin doc from your wallet.

     

     


    New to GTY booking.

    I am seeing comments about being able to find out the cabin # from the barcode on the SetSail pass. So if that is the cabin that has been assigned by Royal, why doesn't Royal make it official, and show  that actual cabin number on the SetSail pass under 'Stateroom' rather than leave it blank?
    Is it not yet 100% certain that they will give the guest that cabin?

    EDIT: Might as well also ask out of curiosity why some people have a SetSail pass with the deck number & muster station, but no cabin number yet (still says GTY) on the SetSail pass?
