napunani Posted October 2, 2013 #1 Share Posted October 2, 2013 We are 52 days from sailing and still no word on our guarantee stateroom, 11/24/13 Eurodam out of FLL. Anyone else on this cruise heard anything on their guarantee stateroom? Others with recent past experiences with guarantee stateroom bookings...when were you given your stateroom number? The last guarantee booking I did with HAL was 15 years ago, so wondering what is the latest. Hopefully, not at sailing check-in, as my TA has told me. Thanks!

Aruba Posted October 2, 2013 #2 Share Posted October 2, 2013 You might have better luck posting your question on the Roll-Call board for your sailing. The last time I booked a guarantee stateroom, I got my cabin assignment 2 days prior to sailing. I hope you won't have to wait that long...but time will tell. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mumsysailor Posted October 2, 2013 #3 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Usually guarantee assignments of from about 10 days out. Some people do report not hearing until they reach port but I think that's more unusual. Mumsy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wittrott Posted October 2, 2013 #4 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Hi, I have a Guarantee Suite booked on the Westerdam Nov.16th out of Fort Lauderdale. HAL told me that maybe 2 weeks before.:rolleyes: Waiting !!!! Have a great cruise !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruz chic Posted October 2, 2013 #5 Share Posted October 2, 2013 It can be anywhere from 3 weeks (or more) out up to getting it at the pier. In order to find out as soon as it is assigned check the check in side i.e pretend to print the boarding pass or luggage tags. It doesn't populate on the reservations side until a day or so later.

RuthC Posted October 2, 2013 #6 Share Posted October 2, 2013 The bulk of guarantee assignments seem to come about 10 days out, +/- a couple of days. You still have a long time to go before you should start looking for an assignment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairsky Posted October 2, 2013 #7 Share Posted October 2, 2013 I am also on your same cruise and have a guaranty and I have had no word, once on NCL I did not get a cabin assignment til I arrived at the port scary stuff, but that was in 1971 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted October 2, 2013 #8 Share Posted October 2, 2013 HAL never rushes these things. You might hear 3 weeks before your cruise, 2 weeks before, 3 days before or not until you get to the pier. So just sit back and start checking in a month. Hope you get something good.

Sea Belle Posted October 2, 2013 #9 Share Posted October 2, 2013 We are on the same cruise and do not expect to hear any time soon. One time we heard when we got to the pier and it was the best upgrade we have ever gotten. One can hope it happens again!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edmusic Posted October 2, 2013 #11 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Our first HAL cruise in 2011, we were assigned our guarantee cabin 14 days before sailing (it was a very nice upgrade). Second HAL cruise last year we were assigned our cabin 4 days before (with a slight upgrade). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean1946 Posted October 3, 2013 #13 Share Posted October 3, 2013 We are sailing on Oct 28th on the Zuidedam (sp) and haven't gotten a room assignment. I still check a couple of times a day though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtl513 Posted October 3, 2013 #14 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Others with recent past experiences with guarantee stateroom bookings...when were you given your stateroom number?We've done 9 gty's and 6 were assigned either 11 or 10 days out. The other 3 were at 18, 7, and 3 days out. Right now HAL is busy trying to sell empty cabins and/or upgrades on all the cruises before you! Your TA just doesn't want you to be "bugging" her/him. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
