melika091900 Posted January 24, 2012 #1 Share Posted January 24, 2012 was messing around on RCCL website just checking prices for our upcoming cruise and prices did go down and then I saw this family oceanview room come up, HUGE, double the size of our inside and only about 300 more total, so about an hour later I called RCCL, looked online again and it was gone, said to call to book this room I called , they said those rooms arent suppose to be released to book but that they would put me on a waitlist since the room is on offer status? i said , did someone book it? she said no its on offer, so what are my chances of getting an email and getting this room? has anyone else gone on a waitlist for a room category and got it ?

vickiw0318 Posted January 24, 2012 #9 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Closer to a sail date, they do open up some classes of cabins that usually do require a minimum number of persons to book if these have not sold. DD and I were able to book Royal Family Suite because of this. I have never been on a waiting list for a certain type of cabin, so I can't help there. Just keep checking the website.

marci22 Posted January 25, 2012 #12 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Next time you see something like that, put it on hold. I have seen them release Family Suites and FOVs online, to smaller parties, as it gets closer to sail date and I'm sure they go quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
