doconner Posted October 17, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 17, 2014 It's a question that comes up all the time, and I thought it'd be nice if there were a thread that people could post to and refer back to when questions come up about Guarantee Cabin Assignments. My hope for the thread would just be a list of facts in the format: -------------------- Date: Ship: Class of Guarantee: Cabin Assigned: (or deck and cabin type if you don't want to share cabin numbers) Date Assigned: (i.e. 3 weeks after booking.... 1 week before saildate.... at the dock) -------------------- It's been a while since I've booked a guarantee, but my results are: -------------------- Date: 2004-04-17 Ship: Carnival Triumph Class of Guarantee: Inside Guarantee Cabin Assigned: Inside - Deck 8 - 4F Date Assigned: At the dock --------------------- and -------------------- Date: 2006-08-19 Ship: Carnival Glory Class of Guarantee: Inside Guarantee Cabin Assigned: Inside - Deck 8 - 4G Date Assigned: At the dock --------------------- It'd be great to see what others have booked, been assigned, and when. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruiseaholichal Posted October 17, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 17, 2014 How does assigning at the dock work when your luggage is already checked in, or better still, if you are priority, and your luggage is supposed to be in your cabin before you are, yet you don't have a cabin #.

sjcruiser Posted October 18, 2014 #7 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Last cabin assigned 2 weeks before sailing, which was two days or so after calling in for the price drop/new promo which included a hefty amount of OBC.

springs741 Posted October 18, 2014 #10 Share Posted October 18, 2014 The porters have a list. They will mark your luggage tag by hand. If you have FTTF or other priority be sure thay affix an orange/red sticker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orison Posted November 3, 2014 #25 Share Posted November 3, 2014 How does assigning at the dock work when your luggage is already checked in, or better still, if you are priority, and your luggage is supposed to be in your cabin before you are, yet you don't have a cabin #. What do you mean by "already checked in"? We only got our cabin at the dock, but we still had out luggage. The guy gave us tags, gave us our cabin number off a sheet, we filled out the tag, and he took our bags. And doing it only once, we had a GTY 8A, and ended up on deck 8, mid ship. Best location to date. Since then, we have only booked suites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
