mommomporkchop Posted December 27, 2010 #1 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I've been looking to book the Oasis for October 1, 2011 - a D8 category, balcony. According to the website, there is only one cabin available. Does RCCL usually hold back a number of cabins and release closer to sail date? It's hard to believe the ship is this full so far in advance. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matj2000 Posted December 27, 2010 #2 Share Posted December 27, 2010 No way are they filled this far out, especially a low season date. They might have some released exclusive to different booking agents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted December 27, 2010 #3 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Travel agents may contract for a group of cabins which will not show as available on the RCI web site. If these do not sell, the TA will release them back to RCI's inventory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patseacruiser Posted December 27, 2010 #4 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I see 5 D8's available. Was there a specific one you wanted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxgoodrich Posted December 27, 2010 #5 Share Posted December 27, 2010 You may have already tried this (if so, just disregard this post!), but click the "Change Your Stateroom" button to get a list. The new site just shows one stateroom initially. Judy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mommomporkchop Posted December 28, 2010 Author #7 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Thanks everyone for your help. Yes, I did try all the things you've suggested. When I first looked, there was only one cabin on deck 6, but when I went back in a while later, surprise, there were the other 5. Maybe down the road some cabins will open up. I'd really like to find one forward on deck 8, so I'll just keep checking. Thanks again! Happy New Year to all my cruise critic friends:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseKeeper Posted December 28, 2010 #8 Share Posted December 28, 2010 There is also a spot where you can type in a specific cabin number to see if it is available if you are looking for one in particular. Yep, Mysticks is correct. :) However, this is another issue with their website. If you choose to search for a specific stateroom number, you must also know the category of that stateroom. It will only search for the stateroom number in the category listed. Sorry, but it still stinks. P.U. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelion Posted December 28, 2010 #9 Share Posted December 28, 2010 It is possible they are all booked. Or perhaps there is a large group onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
