sydneybound Posted March 7, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Trying to book a last minute cruise from Tampa on Monday March 11th. Agents tell me unfortunately its sold out completely. I have paid a refundable deposit and am wait listed. Just wondered amongst the more experienced of you if you think there is normally a good chance of something coming up. Really want a balcony room or possibly a suite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AF-1 Posted March 7, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 7, 2013 This late it will be tough to get a suite. Balcony is possible. With bad weather up north some people may miss flights to Tampa or they may canx due to bad weather. For the most part it's a waiting game for you.

sydneybound Posted March 7, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Thanks , appreciate the info. I live in Tampa so can go literally at the last minute assuming they have enough time to get international clearance etc. Really hope i can get on the cruise. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
172pilot Posted March 7, 2013 #4 Share Posted March 7, 2013 It's spring break for Canadian schools next week. Most cruises are sold to capacity. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydneybound Posted March 7, 2013 Author #5 Share Posted March 7, 2013 It's spring break for Canadian schools next week. Most cruises are sold to capacity. Good luck. That explains it!! Typical of my luck . I will just wait patiently by the phone . Royal Caribbean said I was in first place on the waitlist so maybe there will be a chance.

sydneybound Posted March 7, 2013 Author #6 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Just got a balcony room, really pleased. Just a quick tip. I called literally 4 times a day and then on my last call a room came up. I didnt receive a call but maybe it was coming but if anyone is in the same position as I was i would definitely keep calling. Thanks very much for the info.

sydneybound Posted March 7, 2013 Author #8 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Congrats!!! I never heard of a wait list- We are hoping for a last minute deal on the Jewel next month!! Have a great time!! I had to pay a refundable deposit of $100 and was placed on the waitlist. They gave me a booking number to use. The room came up today for mondays cruise after i had been calling 4 times per day last 2 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
