dcruisers Posted May 20, 2019 #1 Share Posted May 20, 2019 We sail 6/8 on AOS . We normally pick our room-but this time We booked a guaranteed balcony. When do you normally get your room assignment? Also- on other cruise lines on our booking reservation we see our dinners selection- 1sr seating, 2nd or anytime. RCL doesn’t put this info on i your reservation. Do I need to call to confirm that we have our desired dining preference? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare brillohead Posted May 20, 2019 #2 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Cabin assignment can be anytime, even up to the day of the sailing. My Booking Confirmation from RCCL always shows my dining assignment. It's in the Guest Information section, with my name, age range, C&A number, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted May 20, 2019 #3 Share Posted May 20, 2019 RC has definitely been delaying the publication of the cabin number on a guarantee reservation. I'm sailing at about the same time as you and I haven't found out yet either. I agree with brillohead. Your dining assignment should be on your official RC invoice.

Eastern flygirl Posted May 20, 2019 #5 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Check cruise planner, it may be listed. Click the blue for other details, that is how I found my cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BermudaBound2014 Posted May 20, 2019 #6 Share Posted May 20, 2019 We received our assignment at exactly 30 days. This is consistent with several recent reports. I suspect the relatively new 'bid up' option that Royal has implemented has something to do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ourusualbeach Posted May 20, 2019 #7 Share Posted May 20, 2019 A month ago we booked 2 guarantee balconies on Oasis for this Christmas. They were both assigned 2 weeks later. I have clients that booked around the same time on different ships that are still waiting. Still totally unpredictable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your assignments make sense as it was same ship and sail date. Different ships and sail dates could very well be different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you able to share what type of balcony they received? We booked our first guarantee balcony for March 2020 on Harmony. Currently the available options are only for boardwalk or ocean view, with a significantly higher number of oceanviews left. I’m happy either way just curious to hear what others received since it sounds like I’ll have a really long wait to find out 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Called and changed the 2 cabins to a more preferable location side by side. this was a no brainer for us as we had been in inside staterooms and were able to upgrade for $200 per cabin did you book an XB (Oceanview) or XN (neighbourhood) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvlworm Posted May 20, 2019 #13 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Thank you both! We are in XN so that rules out the ocean view options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
