PAMJP Posted May 23, 2021 #1 Share Posted May 23, 2021 We have booked for July 31st on 3 day Regal Princess. Balance paid today direct to Princess before due date. How long normally before cabin number is allocated as for these cruises only guarantee cabins can be booked in various categories. Does your loyalty status make any difference? thanks in advance.

chrysalis Posted May 23, 2021 #2 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Normally, it could be anytime from minutes after booking until finding out when you arrive at the pier. Don't think status has anything to do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAMJP Posted May 23, 2021 Author #3 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Thanks chrysalis for your reply. We’ve never booked guarantee before so this is new to us. I guess I’ll have to be patient, which isn’t in my nature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrysalis Posted May 23, 2021 #4 Share Posted May 23, 2021 If you still haven't heard by the time you arrive at the pier, the porters who take your luggage will have the list, and can fill in your cabin number on the luggage tags on the spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise_Christy Posted May 23, 2021 #5 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Any time after booking up until check in. But my experience is close to sailing date. I've had two guarantee cabins, one was assigned a day before. The other was assigned on check in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See you on board! I am patiently waiting (read impatiently) for cabin assignment. Never booked guarantee cabin before either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAMJP Posted May 25, 2021 Author #7 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Thanks to Chrysalis, Cruise -Christy and windsurfer first for your replies, as only guarantees could be booked I should imagine it is quite a task. I’ll just keep checking and one day it will show up. Pam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAMJP Posted May 25, 2021 Author #9 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Thanks Steelers36, I’ve been checking since we booked on our Personliser and Ocean Medallion hoping it will magically appear, but obviously too early. Patience isn’t me, as my husband says what will be will be, don’t worry we’ll know soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You misunderstood me. You can look at your booking info in Medallion Class app (OCEAN Medallion) or on Princess.com website. You can also access Princess.com from smartphone. No need to have the physical Medallion. This was just about looking up the res to check for cabin assignment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seapals2 Posted May 27, 2021 #14 Share Posted May 27, 2021 I guess right now the seacations are still selling well and until most of the cabins in your grade have sold out there is still the option to allocate cabin numbers. There is always a chance you might get an upgrade. No news might be good news. 🤞🏻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southamptoncruisers Posted May 27, 2021 #15 Share Posted May 27, 2021 I'm not so sure that they are selling well. Still lots of cabin availability and now under £300pp. Living in Southampton I might book very last minute just to ensure the weather will be ok.

I've booked two now (One on Scarlet Lady from Portsmouth, which I've sorted parking for and another Yesterday on Regal Princess.) Any good options on parking in Southampton right now?
