Guaranteed ocean view balcony

[renza]

How quick have you been assigned a cabin?  I never booked A guarantee cabin but to save a $1000 I had too. I know I may have made a bad decision for the Harmony. I am hoping to know before we board but just wanting to see how early some have been assigned. Thank you

From personal experience and asking the same question, the general answer "it varies greatly."

 

You should almost definitely know before you board though and I believe you can ask to switch as soon as you are assigned provided the same exact type of cabin is available.

I'm sailing on the Symphony on May 7th. I got my balcony officially assigned exactly 30 days out, when the cruise documents were available. However, right after we did the online check in on the app at 45 days out, our set sail pass showed our room number as the last 4 digits of the bar code number. We were able to see the barcode number after we added our set sail passes to our iphone apple wallet.

It ended up being correct!
