celticfc Posted September 23, 2014 #1 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Booked a last minute for Indy on 13th Oct 2014 before she sails off for good to the US. This will be our 8th time on Indy and could only get a Balcony Guarantee for myself DH and 2 DD's. This is a first for us to have a guarantee cabin and now panicking as I still havent been assigned a cabin and the ship is sold out......... Please can someone alleviate my fears and tell me there will be a cabin held back for us somewhere onboard. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks There will of course be a cabin :) We have done guarantee a lot and it's always been fine.

Dwalkerdave Posted September 23, 2014 #3 Share Posted September 23, 2014 We did the same earlier this year and a couple of days later got allocated 6682, super location and would recommend. Fingers crossed for you, let us know what you end up with. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celticfc Posted September 24, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Thanks for the replies and reassurance, does anyone know if I should go ahead and complete the online check in or wait until I am assigned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurtle Posted September 24, 2014 #6 Share Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) Thanks for the replies and reassurance, does anyone know if I should go ahead and complete the online check in or wait until I am assigned. You could check in but wait to be assigned before printing. How long ago did you book? I have had 3 guarantee cabins on the independence over the years, the most recent was July this year. We were sailing 26th July and although we had chosen a midship balcony cabin August last year we decided to swap to a junior suite guarantee on 2nd July. We were assigned a cabin within 2 days. We had already checked in for our balcony cabin so I just reprinted our set sail passes after we had been allocated. Let us know what you get 😄 Sent from my iPhone using Forums Edited September 24, 2014 by Smurtle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you been loads and love the ship. When I saw your signature I checked my cruise history to see if we had sailed at same time, although we haven't discovered this will be our 9th time on Indy....lol I see you have booked Anthem I am still unsure of whether to go Anthem or Explorer. The ice rink is a huge draw for my girls who figure skate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurtle Posted September 24, 2014 #8 Share Posted September 24, 2014 You should get allocated soon, especially as it's sold out. Yes we love the independence, we got engaged on our first cruise in 2008 and then got married onboard in 2010 (Joff done the ceremony!!) I've managed to squeeze in an extra 4 nights in October with 7 friends so I'm leaving hubby at home 😮 We booked the Anthem when it first went on sale and prices have gone crazy since then. I've always wanted to go on the Oasis or Allure but couldn't justify the cost to fly to the Caribbean so I jumped at the chance to book with free flights to Barcelona for the Allure in May half term (I'm a teacher so I'm was very pleased it fits in!)

Your choice, online check-in does not effect the timing of your stateroom assignment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticfc Posted September 24, 2014 Author #10 Share Posted September 24, 2014 My twin girls love Joff they go to every show and laugh at every one of his jokes.......... mind you they are only 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mandylennon Posted September 24, 2014 #11 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Sorry for hi-jacking the first post - I Didn't know Joff performed the wedding ceremonies. Don't think I would be able to keep a straight face if he were there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celticfc Posted September 24, 2014 Author #14 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Yes Joff for a wedding would be hilarious. No ice rink for Anthem is a bit of a let down. Cant imagine you can have a show using Bumper Cars...........lol Seriously though the Ice Shows are terrific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mandylennon Posted September 26, 2014 #15 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Looking at the brochure for Quantum, looks like the bumper car section transforms to roller blading, perhaps they will have shows with this in mind. Looking at the pictures though, there doesn't seem to be any seating around the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
