kalley79 Posted December 29, 2007 #1 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I understand that we may have to wait until getting to the ship, but, what is the earliest that anyone has found their room assignment if they booked guarantee? We are 119 days out and I am assuming it is still way to early. Also, we are booked as a group, will that change how soon we are assigned our rooms? Thanks in advance for the info.

jleq Posted December 29, 2007 #2 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I've gotten an assignment as much as five months pre-cruise...and as little as five minutes before I embark. Keep in mind, an "assignment" is subject to change until embarkation day. In both cases mentioned, I was part of a "group" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachj Posted December 29, 2007 #3 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I was given a room assignment 48 hours after booking, about 60 days from sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjbearit Posted December 29, 2007 #4 Share Posted December 29, 2007 We are at 60 some days and still list as TBA on the web site, so you may have a bit of a wait. It probably depends on how quickly the ship fills up I would think. All I know is I have a room waiting for me and knowing the number isn't going to make the time go by any quicker <darn it!>. We are just trying very hard to be patient and see what happens! No matter where we end up, we still intend to have a great time! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PA Dutchman Posted December 29, 2007 #7 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Miracle 28 days and still TBA for a 8A GTY. Received a cabin number with no upgrade for the Freedom at 36 days out, booked 8A mil/Gty thats what we got on deck 6. All we really care is to get a balcony and 8A does it.

kalley79 Posted December 30, 2007 Author #8 Share Posted December 30, 2007 I really don't care where we end up. I just like the feeling of one more piece to the cruising puzzle is getting into place. We booked approx. 14 mts out and it is getting close. I know, 119 days isn't close, but when you booked over a year out it seems like it is right around the corner. I guess I will start trying the gift thing at about 50-60 days and see what we end up with. Thanks for all your input. Kellie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karshrimp Posted December 30, 2007 #9 Share Posted December 30, 2007 We got ours at the 45 day mark. We all bought Inside Gurantees, and all 3 couples were upgraded to insides on Deck 7. 2 couples are at the front of the ship, and we are at the back.

MommaOML Posted December 30, 2007 #11 Share Posted December 30, 2007 I would expect that a lot of us will see room assignments soon, once folks get back to their cubicles after the holiday season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeotampa Posted December 30, 2007 #12 Share Posted December 30, 2007 I always book through carnival, at a guarantee rate for the balcony level in my budget, anywhere from 5 months to 3 months out I watch for a sale with upgrades, call my PVP and usually get a really nice room with a bigger balcony than I would have gotten had I booked a balcony room in the first place. I didn't try that for my splendor trip next January tho, as we got into a Spa balony for little more than what we usually pay anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kellie :cool: :cool: We got our room assignment when we booked our cruise back in July - I told our rep what room we wanted and got it. It is on all our documents. How and who do you book through when you don't get assigned a room. Is it cheaper this way. On all our cruises we always got our room assignment the day we booked.

LambKnuckles Posted December 30, 2007 #14 Share Posted December 30, 2007 I booked Guaranteed for Sept cruise and don't expect to see my cabin number until I check in! If I see it sooner, I'll be pleased, but know it can change... I saved money on the G rate and that's what mattered, not my cabin number. It's kinda like Christmas -- we don't know until it's time!

ckap Posted December 30, 2007 #15 Share Posted December 30, 2007 We are sailing in April and have received our rooms. Do they ever change them after you get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjbearit Posted December 30, 2007 #16 Share Posted December 30, 2007 I'm on the sailing immediately prior and do not have a room assignment yet. mjbearit ... I'll try to leave some fun on the Spirit for you! If I don't use it all up, of course :) Oh, don't worry yourself about that! We always bring fun with us! :D Sometimes it can get a little weird, but it's always fun! When the four of us (us and another couple we are dragging along) get together ANYTHING can happen! :D I do agree about it being like Christmas though! Since we have never cruised before I wouldn't know what room to book anyway, so the bal gty is just fine with us! Just gimme a bed and a shower and I'm good to go! The rest, well, we'll figure it out as we get there. I do think an upgrade to a suite would help to make me a regular customer though, if anybody from CCL is reading this! :D LOL! Yes, I'm shameless!

keene state mom Posted December 31, 2007 #21 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I am waiting for mine March 2nd . My PVP that was with Carnival is no longer with them, so is that why I am still on the waiting for a room list ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjbearit Posted December 31, 2007 #22 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I'm not really sure that anybody but CCL can answer a question like that. We are not privy to the inner workings of CCL! But hang in there! There are rumors of wonderful New Year's gifts! Maybe you'll get something really good for your waiting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cindy:cool: :cool: When you book you can do it one of two ways... one way is to book with a certain cabin number in a certain cat or you can book cat guarantee which means you will get a cabin in the cat you have paid for but won't be given a cabin right off... and you could get an upgrade from what you paid for also.
