Clarea Posted March 27, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 27, 2017 How soon do they usually assign guarantee cabins? Sailing on June 17. There's no usual, average, or typical. It could come anytime between now and the day of the cruise. Keep checking your booking on RC's website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmandaKaye79 Posted March 27, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted March 27, 2017 I had a hump balcony and was able to upgrade to a junior suite guarantee for $50pp. I'm just hoping I get a good location. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums Great upgrade but keep an eye out for your assignment. There are JS on the aft of the ship on deck 6 and deck 7 that are center aft and directly behind the huge open space on the back of the ship. If you get one of those, I would try to switch to a side facing JS if any are available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nursemommy7578 Posted March 27, 2017 #8 Share Posted March 27, 2017 booked back in November for an August 2017 cruise. Room was assigned within a week!! I guess no upgrade for us! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmandaKaye79 Posted March 28, 2017 Author #9 Share Posted March 28, 2017 So the aft suites on 6 and 7 would be bad? I thought people love to get the aft cabins? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums Not all aft cabins are great on all classes of ships. The center aft JS cabins on deck 6 and 7 are set way back in the superstructure of the ship. Personally, I wouldn't sail in one of them. These are older pictures in this link but the view is the same. Look at the center aft JS balcony pictures for deck 6 and 7, you will see what I mean. http://voyager-class.com/pictures/cabins/aft_6-JS/gallery.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoopster95 Posted March 28, 2017 #12 Share Posted March 28, 2017 So the aft suites on 6 and 7 would be bad? I thought people love to get the aft cabins? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Here's Bonaire from the coveted deck 10 aft JS on Adventure. The lower you go, the farther back the cabin is and the more steel you look at. Only the corner after cabins are worth booking from deck 8 and lower imho Now here's Bonaire from Vision's aft JS 8588.... which is the better view? Th JS's on Voyager Class and larger are much more spacious, however the views on Radiance and Vision Class ships just cannot be beat imho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmandaKaye79 Posted March 28, 2017 Author #14 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Oh no. I hope I don't get one of those 6 or 7 afts. But I guess it's a chance you take. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums If you do get one of these assigned and feel that you'd like a 2nd option, quickly look up the other cabins available. You can change to another cabin within the same category that you have been assigned. Just call up whoever you booked with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reallyitsmema Posted March 28, 2017 #16 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I just looked at the available JS cabins for your sailing, there 16 still available. There is one available on deck 9, center hump, but it is a connecting cabin (9314). I would take a connecting over the center aft JS. Hopefully, you hear soon.

heathstockton4 Posted March 29, 2017 #18 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Just for info, our 4 x Guarantee Cabins were allocated on 27th March, we are on Indepedence from Southampton on 27th May so exactly 2 months before depart. Not sure if that is the norm as our first time on RC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted March 29, 2017 #19 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I have had center aft JS on Deck 7 on Navigator and loved it. Don't let these Negative Nellies scare you off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums On March 27, 2017 I booked 2 Guarantee Balcony Cabins & 1 inside guarantee leaving on May 25th. One balcony cabin was assigned very next day, I just received the 2nd balcony cabin, but am still waiting for the inside cabin (probably be right before we sail) lol. Guess there is really no set way for them to assigned them. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
