oceanseagle12 Posted October 9, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 9, 2017 I know the general experience is that you never know when Royal will assign a guarantee cabin, but this one is interesting to me. I booked two oceanview balcony guarantees on Allure for the end of November. One was assigned within 24 hours. Over a week later, the other remains unassigned. Go figure...

katiel53 Posted October 9, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 9, 2017 I know I will never make any sense out of the why things are done as they are, but, I was wondering if you booked them one right after the other? (Same day within a few minutes of first one) Are the cabin passenger levels on C&A the same level for both cabins? If not, what level was assigned and which is still waiting? It will be interesting to see when the other gets assigned and if they are assigned the same category, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be interesting to see when the other gets assigned and if they are assigned the same category, I am a lowly gold member (just my second cruise on RCI). The cabin assigned is for two first-time cruisers, who were assigned a D2, on deck 10- a very nice assignment. I'd be thrilled with something similar, but am hopeful for an assignment soon so that I can try to relocate to be near each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted October 9, 2017 #6 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Am still waiting for my assignment also. Fully paid, after final payment date, cruise docs available for some. Still nothing for me for 11/26 Oasis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oceanseagle12 Posted October 11, 2017 Author #11 Share Posted October 11, 2017 So I just received my assignment- all the way forward, deck 6. D8. About as far from the other cabin as you can get. There are no D8's showing available right now. Am I basically stuck with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And here I thought I was forgotten as I am waiting on my 11/26 Oasis sail date. That seems extremely late to me since you leave in less than 2 weeks. Did they send you emailed docs? If so...it may have a cabin assignment on those? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be interesting to see if you get your assignment today, since the one I was waiting for is the same date as yours. Here's hoping for a better assignment for you! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

argyllsock Posted October 11, 2017 #18 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I used to always get guarantee assignments pretty much the next day after paying in full (Royal and Celebrity)...but I'm on the 10/21 Anthem sailing and still have not been assigned a cabin! Sailing is no longer available for booking...hoping I don't get a surprise at the pier! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
