Sold Out Cruise

[HermmyGranger]

Once a cruise is sold out, will they begin issuing the cabin guarantees or does that still wait until the last minute?

Most of the time it's about 2 weeks before. They start.

They have a certain schedule they keep. The people doing the assigning are assigning for the entire fleet...going out of order encourages errors.

 

As mentioned, the GTY assignments can come anywhere, in our experience, from 28 days out, to 2 days out. The average seems to be around 7 or 8 days out.

31 days out and I will be checking every day.  Multiple times a day.  Nothing better to do 🙂
