dogsdogs Posted December 20, 2017 #1 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Booked a guarantee JS for a January cruise through an internet TA. I have never booked a guarantee on RCCL before. I keep checking my on-line check-in screen but I'm not sure that will reflect it. The TA isn't much help--I knew that from the get--just used them to get the OBC. Will I be notified?

suzk2275a Posted December 20, 2017 #2 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Keep checking online - that's where I've always gotten my assignment when booking a guarantee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, you won't be notified by Royal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go to the My Cruises and then click on the reservation number, it will be under the stateroom section if it has been assigned. For our January cruise, we switched to a JS GTY and got assigned within 2 days since we'd already made our final payment. But that's how I found out, just by going to the reservation online. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted December 20, 2017 #5 Share Posted December 20, 2017 My GTY cabin did not show up until less than two weeks before sail date, and indeed RCI does not notify you when assigned. Just had to keep checking "My Cruises" daily for for cabin assignment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeannie333333 Posted December 20, 2017 #6 Share Posted December 20, 2017 now what you are saying is very interesting about not being notified. Dont know if its a UK thing - but we are ALWAYS notified in an email from RCI when the cabin is assigned, and we do GTY cabins quite a lot. I do check the reservation but I don't need to, as within 24 hours of the cabin being assigned we always receive an updated invoice which reflects the cabin number :confused: Jean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The allocation just appears eventually on our cruise planner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norwich Cruiser Posted December 20, 2017 #8 Share Posted December 20, 2017 As Jean has said it may just be a UK thing but we have always been notified by email usually between twenty four hours maybe forty eight hours and two weeks after booking and have booked quite a few guaranteed staterooms always been very happy with the stateroom also.

Rare silentbob007 Posted December 20, 2017 #10 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I used an internet agent for my Jan GTY cruise and she actually sent me a new invoice with the room number on the day it was assigned ... I was impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mcatmcat Posted December 21, 2017 #13 Share Posted December 21, 2017 In the event your room is assigned less than 24 hrs before sailing, can you still print luggage tags? I know the porter has tag that you can write on it but I always laminate them for free back at work. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeannie333333 Posted December 21, 2017 #15 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Do you use a travel agent or do you book directly with Royal Caribbean? Hi there, we always book directly - maybe that makes a difference too ?:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted December 21, 2017 #16 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Hi there, we always book directly - maybe that makes a difference too ?:confused: Should not make a difference with the cruise line. However, the agent may take the extra step of checking for you periodically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
