So what happens if...

[SunshineCruiser24]

You book an interior guarantee and are assigned a 1A and neither can use an upper bunk? Do they have a roll away? Will they move the mattress to the floor?

[May2894]

I asked carnival this, when I booked my gty. They told me 1a is not part of the gty, I would not end up with one of those.

[tbbtravels]

We have had them put a mattress down on the floor. 2 fat chicks - and we couldn't use the top bunk.

That would be awesome. Looking at a killer deal for a GTY in January but my cruise buddy is too tall and I'm too wide. I can deal with almost anything in a cabin. Crappy location, super noisy, just need a bed.

hi friend glad you are back! I want to cruise with you!

[SunshineCruiser24]

Hi :-)

 

January seems to be where it's at, price wise!

 

With a GTY is it possible that you're moved up a category? From like interior to ocean view?

I think after Sunshine's review of the cruise with the ex, she will never want for a room mate again - a whole lot of us would love to travel with her. Of course, she'd have to weed out the crazies among us ;):)

Yes, it is possible to be assigned an upgrade from your guaranteed cabin category.

It definitely IS possible, but not overly probable.

When booking a guarantee, the text will advise that a 1A (upper/lower) is part of the 'mix'.

Not likely since they also sell gty ocean view and people purchase last minute upgrades, freeing up lowest categories. You are far more likely to get a less desirable cabin in your select category than an free upgrade due to overbooking.

Did this by accident some years ago and DW would not go to upper bunk and neither would I so we had the steward put upper mattress on floor each night.

 

Not a mistake I would be making again.

We asked this question and were told they do not use the bunk bed cabins for an inside guarantee. We booked it and ended up in a 4 A cabin.

[SkyMaster]

I've booked inside GTY many, many times, and have never been assigned a 1A cabin. Almost always a 4A, regular inside, but occasionally I'll get an upgrade. I've been assigned just about every cat cabin, up to, and including an Ocean Suite when paying for an inside GTY. :cool: Good luck, and see y'all aboard.

We always sail in early Dec or January for their great rates! Yes, I want to cruise with you too and wanted to tell you on your review that I really admire your love of adventure and getting out on your own and doing excursions! I would never think of doing that..Happy cruising and sure hope to find you on a future cruise! Your question I have no idea, just wanted to say hi.

Hello. I had the same question. I emailed my PVP and he assured me an inside guarantee does not include an upper/lower. Still haven't had the guts to book it yet though.

[SmittyCo]

Stupid question ... what is GTY?

[thinfool]

You can book a guarantee that starts at any level you like. (even balconies)

 

The Carnival guarantees I have booked were 4A minimum. That means I would never receive a 1A cabin.

 

Side point, I have never received a 4A cabin. The guarantee system has always given me something higher. NEVER lower.

 

My TA never books 1A guarantees, whether they are 'in the mix' or not.

"GTY" stands for guarantee...meaning, instead of choosing a specific cabin, you are getting a price break by getting a guaranteed cabin class (inside, oceanview, balcony, ect) and you will get at LEAST a cabin in that class. You have no control on location, so you can be assigned by the cruise line a cabin anywhere on the ship, so no complaining that you got the back of the ship under the lido deck or by the elevator :p

This has happened, because it happened to me & the hubby. Steward put a roll away up every night. Worked for us. :p

Sunshine I agree I'm pretty sure the 1-As are NOT included in an interior guarantee. I wouldn't Worry
