TxnAquarian Posted June 15, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 15, 2018 For some reason our TA booked our upcoming cruise on the Encore as a GTY. We leave in a couple of weeks and I was wondering if Seabourn typically assigns a specific room prior to the cruise or at the pier.....

lincslady Posted June 15, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I would say more often a bit in advance, but you cannot 'guarantee' it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Norton Posted June 15, 2018 #3 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I'm 50/50 with the GTY. The first time I didn't have a room until after I boarded. The second time I had it a few months out (I logged into the Seabourn site to find it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isklaar Posted June 15, 2018 #4 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I've taken a GTY several times in the last couple of years. I've usually had my allocation 7-10 days before the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunprince Posted June 15, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I’ve done an OB gty twice on SB and ended up in nicely located V6s on deck 7 and 8. Suite assignment usually comes in 2 weeks to 10 days prior to sailing. I would also suggest that you have a word with your TA. They should never book a suite category without your express permission. You need to tell them what category to book (not the other way around). Or perhaps look for another TA who is more upfront during the booking process.

wesport Posted June 15, 2018 #7 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Leaving 7/14 for 21 days. Guarantee verandah. Nothing yet. Hopefully wont get 502 or 503 on the Odyssey. It is a crap shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxnAquarian Posted June 16, 2018 Author #8 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Thanks for all of the feedback! Location doesn't really matter to us, all that much, although it's nice having a room assignment prior to boarding day lol We have 11 days until the cruise, so I'll keep checking the website ;) Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxnAquarian Posted June 16, 2018 Author #9 Share Posted June 16, 2018 UPDATE: Just checked and saw that our room was assigned today! V6 Suite 843 We're ready to go! Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So long as you’re immune to the motion of the ocean it’s all good. [emoji6] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
