Rare nydney1 Posted January 7, 2011 #2 Share Posted January 7, 2011 My TBA did not get assigned until 30 days before our trip. Now I am waiting for the upsell/upgrade fairy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G'ma Posted January 7, 2011 #3 Share Posted January 7, 2011 You could be in for a long period of stress. Depending upon how the sailing is selling, you could wait as long as check in to find out. I wouldn't look for it anytime until you are within 30 days. Save your stress for when it counts....HA!! A "guarantee" cabin is assigned based on what is and is not sailing and how many cabins are empty at the sailing date draws closer. Good luck....

kkestone Posted January 7, 2011 #4 Share Posted January 7, 2011 dnl, I know what you mean but I'm 44 days out and still no assignment. This site is a good place to obsess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacruizer Posted January 7, 2011 #5 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I've had several room assignments come in at 60 days or so, but my last TBA wasn't assigned until 5 days before sailing so you could have to wait a while! Someone on our roll call for this Sunday's cruise also posted that they just got their assignment this week as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucyR. Posted January 7, 2011 #10 Share Posted January 7, 2011 My cabin was assigned 5 weeks before my cruise. It is located way in the front of the ship. I was assigned a Cat.4-D, Cabin #7103 on the Carnival Spirit. I prefer the AFT cabins. I sent my T.A. an e-mail to see if he can move me to an AFT cabin. I am willing to pay a transfer fee to the aft. I am waiting for him to respond. Does Carnival charge to move me to another cabin in the same catagory? I am booked on a insider TBA. I don't like to feel the waves when the ship hits them in the front of the ship. Does anybody like the foreward cabins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could depend on how many rooms are left, how they are selling, and who the TA talks to at Carnival that day. Part of the trade off with booking TBA is that you have to take what they give you in exchange for the (usually) cheaper rate. I actually love forward cabins. I've been far forward on the Spirit class on deck 8 and it was great. Not much hall traffic so much less noise plus it forces you to get some excercise just walking to and from things. You might want to consider picking a room when you book next time if you really want a specific location or to avoid one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucyR, If I was carnival I would charge you the going rate for the room as of today. When you decide to do the guaranteed thing you are trading off cabin selection for a discount. We pick our room and pay the extra for what we want an aft extended balcony. That is our preference and are willing to pay for it. If we ever go the guarantee route we will live with there choice.
