Jeannie333333 Posted November 16, 2015 #1 Share Posted November 16, 2015 I think I might be a bit weird..... yesterday we booked a balcony guarantee on Harmony in May, and I get so excited waiting in anticipation to see what category & location we get!! I know we can be advised any time between now and the sailing date - but I love checking my emails or checking the booking to see if we have received our assignment yet LOL As yet, we haven't been disappointed by booking a guarantee cabin - hopefully that continues. ;) However, as we haven't been on Oasis Class before, I will have no idea if its a good or bad location until we are on board ... but just very happy to have squeezed another cruise in, even it is a 'baby' one :) Let the waiting and the excitement begin!! :eek: Jean :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cincicruisers Posted November 16, 2015 #3 Share Posted November 16, 2015 What fun! You have a lot of time to speculate on where your cabin will be. I have heard they assign cabins and then later change cabins closer to sail date. I hope you get a great cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a suite guarantee, assigned a JS and then a couple of weeks before sailing, checked the booking and we had been moved to a GS ....how excited were we!! Thanks for the good wishes Jean :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blondynka Posted November 20, 2015 #6 Share Posted November 20, 2015 I know that feeling! We have never been disappointed with a guarantee booking either. We've been on both Oasis and Allure, we will be doing Harmony in 2017. You will love the Oasis class! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We booked a central park balcony, i'm super excited for that one. I see you're from Shoreham, I live in Brighton.

Rare little britain Posted November 21, 2015 #8 Share Posted November 21, 2015 If you booked an X gty then you will get a seaview balcony: if you booked an XN gty then you get a neighbourhood balcony.

Hailzmick Posted November 21, 2015 #9 Share Posted November 21, 2015 I still don't have mine... But I'm thinking the longer I don't know it, possibly the better my balcony room! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol I did think that, I was surprised it was allocated this far out - but there must be logic in their madness...lol Good luck! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from further down the A27! Sent from my iPad mini 4 using Tapatalk When we booked ours only an X Gty was available, I noticed it changed a couple of days ago to have both X & XN. I had no idea there were two different types, haven't seen that before, but then we have been on Oasis class before. Mind you, the price we paid for our X is now the price for the XN, and the X is £50 pp more expensive...so we are more than happy :) Thanks for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeannie333333 Posted November 28, 2015 Author #16 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Oh no - couldn't help it - every time I opened my computer Royal Caribbean shouted out 'book the 4 day Harmony short cruise too...you know you want to...'. :rolleyes: Finally the shouting got too much - and today I booked the 4 day prior to this one. Another good deal on a guarantee balcony - so waiting to see what we get this time around. Obviously it will be a different cabin to this one, but thats great because them I can experience the ship from two different locations & see which one I prefer for future cruises. Only 180 days to go !!! Jean :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare little britain Posted November 28, 2015 #17 Share Posted November 28, 2015 I've got both booked too! Those prices were too good to ignore that shouting!!! You can pick me up as you drive down the 27! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean :) I booked a B2B on Liberty last summer and was assigned cabins next door to each other-- if the categories are the same and it's available, you should be able to call Royal and switch so that you don't have to move-- it worked for me and it's worth a shot!
