lbfluffy Posted February 15, 2023 #1 Share Posted February 15, 2023 We are two weeks out from our cruise. We leave on the royal on March 2nd I am just wondering when is the latest people have found their assignment. The last time we had a guarantee we found out a month before..

Rare Rick&Jeannie Posted February 15, 2023 #2 Share Posted February 15, 2023 We have only done a guarantee cabin once before pandemic, and I may not remember exactly but it seems as if we did not get an assignment until about 1 week prior. Would not swear to it... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you It can be right up to an including the sail date. We’ve had friends who weretold by the luggage handlers when they needed to write the cabin number on their luggage tag. We did it once and it was 2 weeks before. We were not notified, just saw it on the summary suddenly appear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColoradoMom!! Posted February 15, 2023 #5 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Please report back your experience. I wish we had a "I booked a Balcony Unobstructed Guarantee - and this is what I got " type thread! We are booked in a BF GTY forward on Deck 8 on Discovery. Leaving mid March - the price was great, but it's a gamble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of them was pretty much what I'd expected, based on the guarantee category. It was a cheap inside - actually a very cheap inside - for a spur-of-the-moment cruise. The other one was a surprise upgrade from an inside to an oceanview. We were very pleased with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike45LC Posted February 16, 2023 #9 Share Posted February 16, 2023 I was sent an email with my cabin assignment while my phone was in airplane mode as I was flying into Vancouver, Canada. So I did not get the cabin assignment until I deplaned, less than 24 hours before the cruise. I did not worry because I knew I was guaranteed no less than my base cabin level.

Cabin was assigned while we were on a flight to LAX 24 hours before embarkation. Those who find out at check-in probably did not check their reservation online in the 12 hours before heading to the pier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arizonaperson Posted February 16, 2023 #12 Share Posted February 16, 2023 (edited) There is a Live from the Crown February 15 that the OP said they were upgraded and their medallion didn’t open their original cabin so they had to go to guest services and figure it out and they were told then that they were upgraded from an interior to a balcony cabin. They didn’t mention anything about their luggage ,if their luggage made it to their new room or their old room. Assuming they still had bag tags on with their interior cabins information . So I would say that is pretty late notice. Edited February 16, 2023 by arizonaperson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
