over the edge Posted July 23, 2006 #1 Share Posted July 23, 2006 Does anyone that "waitlists" a specific cabin number (not catagory) ever actually get a call that its available? I was told I would get a fax or a call. I'm wondering if this really ever happens or if I should keep watching the site and calling. If anyone has received this most joyous fax or phone call, please tell me about it. Its kind of like the upgrade fairy but, "I want to hear from the "most favourite cabin fairy!" Tks. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted July 24, 2006 #2 Share Posted July 24, 2006 It happens, but your best bet is to keep checking--daily, if possible, with RCI directly. So many ships are sailing full nowadays, that it's allmost impossible to get anything different than what was available when you booked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npmadsen Posted July 24, 2006 #3 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Fairy visited me today, not that I was wait listed, but have been looking for awhile, magically 7688 and 7690 were available on the VOS for presidents week 2007. Great rate also, so I am so happy , my "leg work" paid off. In addition I got great rates on airfare for that week THe airfare and 2 cabins are 500 less than EOS for the same week without air and not as nice of cabins Eileen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
over the edge Posted July 24, 2006 Author #4 Share Posted July 24, 2006 npmadsen, that was great luck. Which cabin are you picking between the two? They both look good. Did you buy your air through RCCL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npmadsen Posted July 24, 2006 #5 Share Posted July 24, 2006 We booked both we are a family of 5. booked our air thru orbitz.com, found the air fare on kayak.com which takes you to the fare site you want to book, tonight I looked again and it was 200 more, The fairy was here today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCRUISR Posted July 24, 2006 #6 Share Posted July 24, 2006 You don't wait for them to call you...you keep calling. To date ( without asking ) I have never spoken to the same RCCL agent by phone..... so it's not like you're bothering anyone.....lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
over the edge Posted July 24, 2006 Author #7 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I have been very lucky when it comes to cabin choices in the past, so maybe my luck will hold out. If not, I'm quite happy with the cabin I have. As long as I'm aft, I'm happy! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
