Clarea Posted June 10, 2013 #3 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Side note its a GTY W You will get at least a JS, and maybe better. We've done 3 "W" bookings (none on Oasis) and gotten 2 JS and 1 GS staterooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWManiac Posted June 10, 2013 #4 Share Posted June 10, 2013 you are guaranteed at least a JR. you could also get... Grand suite, owner suite, royal family suite, crown loft suite, aqua theater suite, sky loft suite, presidential family suite, royal suite, or royal loft suite. Done two W guarantees (not Oasis class) gotten a JR both times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedbumps Posted June 11, 2013 #6 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Just noticed something odd about booking GTY W and hopefully someone can answer this question. Looking at a GTY W on Oasis and can only book for two adults. When we add our two kids (2 adults & 2 kids) GTY W does not show as a booking option. Is there some reason for that? A suite is a great family option and GTY W seems like a great way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason is that not all JSs can hold more than 2 people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had this on a few guarantee bookings. Being a guarantee which is cheaper they may want you to book 2 rooms to boost the price up. Quite often in checking prices of sailings that are reduced it is cheaper to book 2 cabins as opposed to one with 4 in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kruzerci Posted June 11, 2013 #10 Share Posted June 11, 2013 that is nice to know. We have a JS guarantee right now so would that equate to something better than a JS on the BOS?? No... You would still be guaranteed a JS or better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since some cabins only hold two, offering gty for two maximizes that flexibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravenraisin Posted June 11, 2013 Author #12 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Ok update I booked the W GTY and on RCCL website it says JS GTY so I guess that's what im getting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachnative Posted June 11, 2013 #13 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Ok update I booked the W GTY and on RCCL website it says JS GTY so I guess that's what im getting. We booked the same category. It was at a very good price. As long as I get a JS at a good price I'll be happy...if they assign me something better then it is icing on the cake.

Expect a JS, but know there is a chance of an upgrade. FWIW, from our W booking on Oasis last fall, we got a Crown Loft. We were thrilled and enjoyed every minute.

That's the minimum you will get, you may still be lucky and be allocated a full suite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. A GTY can not be booked for any category for more than 2 people. Did some more reservation scenarios and a phone call to reservations.

Did some more reservation scenarios and a phone call to reservations. once in a great while a poster here on CC reports finding a gty that will allow 3/4 booking. As I believe those poster, it must be offered once in great while. still, in general, gty's are for two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And RC doesn't have the excuse of "not enough berths" for one. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did some more reservation scenarios and a phone call to reservations. We are three and booked a junior suite guarantee. I had no idea that it wasn't common. For what it's worth, we sail on the 30th and still haven't recieved a room assignment. Hearing that GTYs are generally only for two people have me a bit worried now.

I would look at it this way, if they haven't already assigned you a room, the chances are they may not have a 3 person JS available, so they may upgrade someone in a 3 person JS, to suite and give you their room, or they may upgrade you to a full suite, i think the closer it gets to sailing, the better chances you have of being upgraded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
