broadwaycam Posted February 26, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 26, 2019 When you booked a guarantee cabin about a year out or more when roughly did you find out your room assignment? We booked a guarantee for next February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted February 26, 2019 #2 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Could be anytime from later today up until you arrive at the port. Totally unpredictable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KG1924 Posted February 27, 2019 #9 Share Posted February 27, 2019 We've done a balcony guarantee a few times now-most recent being our trip this upcoming May. We got our assignment this time around 110 days or so out. The previous ones were all pretty similar but like others have said, it can literally be anytime up until boarding. We've never gotten an upgrade but we've gotten really lucky as far as locations of the cabins. We like being by the stairs and we always seem to end up near there. Worst one we ended up with was right under the pool deck on the Allure, but thankfully it was under the snorkel/dive shop so no scrapping of deck chairs in the early hours. It's worth the risk to us if the savings is significant-this upcoming one was about $800 cheaper than booking a specific cabin so it was very much worth it! Also, if you end up in a location that you don't love and there are other cabins in the same category available, you may be able to switch cabins but you have to call C&A-regular customer service will not allow it.

kruzerci Posted February 27, 2019 #10 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I booked a cruise on Symphony for August 2019 in December 2018 and got my assignment last week, so it was just about two months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bar1068 Posted February 27, 2019 #11 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I have a trivial question on these guarantee cabins. We've a guarantee balcony for an Anthem cruise in May. I get completely we may not get our cabin assignment until we're practically walking up the gangway, however I did our checkin a couple of days ago as we're inside 90 days. Noticed our set sail pass has an A01 muster assignment, but no cabin. Curious if that could mean either the A01 is a "catch all" for guarantee's until they are assigned and our SS pass will be re-issued, or if possibly could be an indication our cabin could be forward on the ship since the A01 muster station is the main theatre . Matters nothing right now, but just a curious question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also did my online check in a few days ago on the Royal App. Right after I did the check in, our set sail passes were available to view. It shows that we are deck 11 but the room number says gty still. Our muster station says C02. So I'm thinking that is your actual muster station. Not sure where you viewed your set sail pass....My set sail pass only shows deck 11 when I view it on the Royal App. When I look on the website it says reprint under deck number. There has been reports lately that people are getting their deck number only pretty early and they do indeed end up with a cabin on that deck.

I checked in on the RCI website, I don't believe the Royal App is available for the Anthem yet, so I look at our SetSail pass on the website, so on our SS pass it shows Reprint for the deck and GTY for the cabin, along with the A01 muster station. I've heard the same about folks being assigned a deck and then later a cabin on that deck. I'd also heard some folks when calling RCI for price adjustments or other things related to pricing, the RCI rep's have those details also, however I've called a few times and reps say all shows as GTY. No matter, is what it is, we'll be onboard in May...somewhere!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taglovestocruise Posted February 27, 2019 #15 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Seems like they are assigning cabins closer and closer to sail date. Could be they are trying to put a stop to people changing cabin locations as soon as they are assigned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abd213 Posted February 27, 2019 #17 Share Posted February 27, 2019 So I just checked the app and it now says Deck 8 but GTY for the room number. If I log in online it still doesn't say anything..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with the GTY we did not get them until about 50 days out. And then it just said the Deck number. It was just yesterday that we actually got the room assignment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
