mchelle77 Posted September 30, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 30, 2016 We have a group of 14 on the Breakaway in 2+ weeks and my nephew had a guarantee inside - when do they usually assign those? And does he find out by just logging in and checking the stateroom number that way? I have no experience with guarantees, we always do a balcony and choose the area of the ship we want, so I can't help him at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jh2360 Posted September 30, 2016 #2 Share Posted September 30, 2016 It will randomly show up online. My guarantee for this coming December showed up about six months ago Sent from my SM-G920V using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted September 30, 2016 #3 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Could be as late as day of sailing at the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diwanna Posted September 30, 2016 #4 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Booked my Christmas cruise 2 weeks ago and my room was assigned by that evening! Crazy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casofilia Posted September 30, 2016 #5 Share Posted September 30, 2016 When NCL are good and ready!! :) As was said people have been known to turn up at the port to be told by the porters which cabin they are in. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love.II.Cruise Posted September 30, 2016 #6 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Well, a guarantee is a guarantee. He will get his cabin assigned when NCL is ready to do so. As others have posted, it could be as late as sailing date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLRoth Posted September 30, 2016 #7 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I booked a guarantee on the Getaway sailing 11.13.16. He would want to long into MY NCL and look at his vacation summary. This will eventually tell him his room number. My was assigned this morning. It is true though NCL can wait till assign until the day of cruise. Sometimes, this is great as it can lead to an Upgrade!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehK Posted September 30, 2016 #8 Share Posted September 30, 2016 My sailing is in 8 days and I just found out yesterday (but logging in repeatedly refreshing the page every hour to check). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare www3traveler Posted September 30, 2016 #9 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I am 9 days out from a cruise and NO assignment as of an hour ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WashyWashyHappyHappy95 Posted September 30, 2016 #10 Share Posted September 30, 2016 It's not a hard and fast rule, but sometimes the later the assignment the better chance of an upgrade. I've been on 3 NCL cruises, went GTY on each one. On the two that I booked less than a week out from sailing I was upgraded to a minisuite. The one that I booked 2+ weeks out got a less desirable room in a less desirable section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PRgymnast Posted October 1, 2016 #12 Share Posted October 1, 2016 (edited) I booked a BD balcony but it was a guarantee on Getaway 2 weeks before departure date and was assigned a B9 spa balcony about 2 days after booking. The upgrade gods were very good to me! It does happen! :) Edited October 1, 2016 by PRgymnast forgot key element of story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shazpat Posted October 2, 2016 #13 Share Posted October 2, 2016 I booked two gty balcony cabins. NCL assigned cabins about a week later (5 weeks before sail date). We were assigned mid ship balconies on decks 10 and 13. Would have preferred same deck but otherwise very happy with allocation. 21 days to go Amd very exited 😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
