Tetromibi Posted January 18, 2013 #26 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Interestingly enough, I tried that trick for my upcoming Valor cruise in september. We booked a guaranteed suite. Room number shows up as TBA under manage my cruise....but when doing what you did with the VIFP tab, an ocean suite number shows up. Keep us updated if you end up with that exact room....cool glitch if so. I forgot to update this. The room listed with this trick ended up being exactly the room that we ended up with.

terri910 Posted January 18, 2013 #28 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Since we are also "TBA" on our "Manage Your Cruise" tab info, I wanted to try this (we sail in 17 days).....but when I go to the "My VIFP" tab and "Cruise History" all I see are PAST cruises...nothing about the upcoming one. What am I missing here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetromibi Posted January 18, 2013 #29 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I'm getting the same thing now. I guess they revamped the my VIFP tab or something. My upcoming cruises no longer show up there either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My upcoming cruises no longer show up there either. Maybe they found out what the OP found out! *LOL* Oh, well.....I will still be happy to board the ship. I'm just so anxious to find out! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terri910 Posted January 18, 2013 #31 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I found this website, but not sure if the numbers grayed out means those categories are completely sold out cruise fish dotnet with no spaces Find your ship and sail date and it shows available pricing which I think relates to available rooms According to that website, my sailing is COMPLETELY sold out. You'd think they'd have the room assigned in that case, wouldn't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terri910 Posted January 18, 2013 #33 Share Posted January 18, 2013 not really because if someone on your sailing wants to upgrade to a cabin carnival can "sell" it to them for a price when is your cruise? we sail on next sunday and people are being called and offering upgrades at a price-- so people are still waiting for assignments Our cruise sails Feb. 3rd. It took me a few minutes to figure out what you were saying. So, basically, enough people have booked to fill EVERY stateroom, but those of us with "guarantee" rooms to be assigned, may get moved around if one of the rooms left in the non-assigned rooms is, say a balcony or suite, or ocean view.....and they may call the people who chose a balcony and say "Would you like to upgrade to a suite?"...or call the people who chose an inside room and ask, "Would you like to upgrade to an ocean view?" I think I understand how it works a little better, now. Yup, we probably won't know until the day of boarding what our room assignment is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tetromibi Posted January 18, 2013 #35 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Where is the stateroom number listed under the VIFP tab? They have since changed the tab. The trick no longer works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you will be assigned before that-- maybe the day before. do NOT give that luggage to a porter until they confirm what cabin you are in. keep an eye on your MANAGE MY BOOKING for your assignment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
