available cabins on a booked cruise

Just be aware that there is a hidden trick to this- you have no idea how many guarantee (GTY, for short)bookings there are. If you are looking at a category where there are, for example, 30 cabins. 10 are booked and assigned in a standard manner, and they show up as not available. 19 are booked GTY, so really, only one cabin is available. You look in and see 20 available cabins, and take a few minutes to consider your choices. In the mean time, someone, someplace else, books a cabin in that category. Suddenly that category will be full, as the the 19 GTY cabins are committed, but not assigned. So looking at a website to see available cabins can be a bit misleading.

 

This most commonly misleading late in the booking process for a cruise...say the last 30 or 45 days.
