Hello. First post, looking for some tips/positive outcomes from more experienced cruisers than I. My family went on SOTS last year and had a wonderful cruise. We have three young children and were interested in the Icon and booked connecting balcony rooms for next March.
One of our sons has since been diagnosed with some neurological and visual issues and we think it would be better for him to not be on the Icon in prime time and have a repeat experience on SOTS where he will be more comfortable and familiar.
Here is my question, we need connecting balcony rooms because of the three kids and my son needing time to decompress. We could do this in interior but its not a pleasant. A family suite is out of our price range. All connecting balcony rooms are booked Feb and Mar of 2024. Has anyone had luck eventually booking the category of your choice after it was initially sold out?
The royal person i spoke with on the phone was kind but didn’t have any advice. I planned to just keep checking every so often. If anyone with more experience has insider tips, please share!
