daisybel Posted January 7, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 7, 2023 We are in a Q3 guarantee cabin but 5 weeks to go and no allocation Also Q3,Q2 and Q1 all booked out . Where will Cunard find a cabin as very few in these categories. Has anyone ever been told “sorry” we are full ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, several months ago I was waitlisted for Club Dining , that category was completely full , 72 hours before departure I was given the opportunity to transfer the booking to a lower category or cancel the booking I'm afraid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why Worry if you have booked a Guaranteed grade and have confirmation of that from Cunard. If waitlisted as bell boy States above, well thats different type of booking.

netpj Posted January 8, 2023 #8 Share Posted January 8, 2023 @daisybeland @canoncruiser- please post when you receive your stateroom assignments - we are in a similar position next year so are interested to hear how the gurantees work out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since it is possible for there to be a truly "last minute" availability (just a day or two before sailing) you might only learn when you check in. Happened to me in July 2002 as I boarded Maasdam in Fort Lauderdale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you afraid they'll forget about you? They would have enough cabins of Q3 or higher to service all those passengers in your position. They have allowed for your booking in their description of categories as 'sold out'. Last time I was on QE I was upgraded from Q5 to Q3, less than 5 weeks out from the voyage. This time I've chosen Q3 but also chosen my cabin. If they care to put me in a higher grade of cabin the day before sailing, they are most welcome to do so! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleFish1976 Posted January 26, 2023 #19 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Any news from the original poster, @daisybel as to cabin assignment yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daisybel Posted January 26, 2023 Author #20 Share Posted January 26, 2023 No, unfortunately ? There is still one cabin higher than a Q3. I am thinking of calling Cunard to see if they will make me an offer. Interested to hear what other CC cruisers think ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I wouldn't be worried about it but seeing that you are, you should certainly call them and see what they can tell you about the cabin assignment. They should be there today possibly as it wouldn't be a public holiday where the call centre is (it sounds to me as though it's off-shore). I'm sailing on QE on the 14th Feb and in just the last couple of days (21 days from sailing date) received access to my check-in and luggage labels. I chose my cabin when I booked so the cabin number is no surprise. I would assume that they confirm people who have chosen cabins first and then assign those who have guarantees. I have had a guarantee in the past, as well as an upgrade and they both happened within the week or two prior to sailing, from memory. The guarantee was almost certainly in the last week before sailing (P2 on QM2). Which voyage number/s are you doing and how many nights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
