We are on an 11 day Caribbean departing February 4 on the Rotterdam, and it is sold out. Has been for a few weeks, actually. That may be the OP's cruise. L.

oaktreerb Posted December 30, 2022 #7 Share Posted December 30, 2022 You pay the deposit. HAL will contact you through your TA or PCC. You ask which stateroom is available and either accept or reject. If you don’t want the stateroom you can stay on the waitlist to see if something better shows up.

This is what we just did for our long cruise in 2024. We just got the notice yesterday that out stateroom is available, so we bought it. Total wait time was about 5 weeks or so after putting down half the deposit. Now we put down the second half of deposit to lock it in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
