Lmsundaze Posted March 9 #1 Share Posted March 9 I booked a solo cabin on the Serenity for the Valparaiso to Buenos Aires cruise in February 2025. All I could get was a guaranteed cabin at this point, everything was booked in this category. Anyone have experience with what is likely to happen? Thank you in advance.

Texas Tillie Posted March 9 #2 Share Posted March 9 If you have a guaranteed cabin, you'll be on the ship, either in a solo or higher, probably a double ocean view. The double ocean views are identical to the solos, just closer to the middle of the deck. Did you get the guarantee for the solo cost? If so, you can't loose as the double ocean view probably has a 50% single supplement. Patty 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, hopefully, couldn't be bumped from cruise? Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did this same cruise years ago except we spent 3 days off the coast of Antarctica. They don't do that any longer with Serenity or Symphony.

Lmsundaze Posted March 9 Author #5 Share Posted March 9 I meant explorer rate, not expedition. How was that cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I consider it the best cruise I’ve ever done because of the Antarctic part. Without those 3 days it would be in the top half of cruises but not all that special. The Chilean glaciers didn’t compare with Alaska. Being at Ushuaia was cool just because it’s Ushuaia. Also, we were able to get into the Falklands. My understanding is only about 30% actually make it there. Patty 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least I wouldn’t be worried. 😉 And Patty is absolutely correct. Aside from ending up being assigned one of the solo staterooms, you can only go up from there.
