You misunderstood, people have been bumped (or asked to take lesser cabin or another sailing) when they chose and paid for a cabin WITHOUT it being a GTY booking.

Moltar Posted January 21, 2020 #278 Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) Thats nice, never happened to me so until it does, I'm choosing my room. Actually I will always choose my room. Cheers. Edited January 21, 2020 by Moltar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moltar Posted January 21, 2020 #284 Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) I'm not reading through 12 pages now that I also see this was from last MAY. What happened with this situation with the OP? Did RCCL make good or did they continue to shaft them and screw them over? Edited January 21, 2020 by Moltar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, there were a couple of threads that were combined into an older, existing thread from last May. The most recent threads started on page 11 at post #261, about 7 hours ago. Doubt it's been resolved yet and you'll only need to read 1 page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure of the OP but my JS GTY downgrade call happened to me today. After they called me back they made and offer of an Oceanview balcony +500 OBC and double C&A points. I originally had an Oceanview balcony and paid 700 to upgrade a few months ago so even with the 500 OBC I'd be out 200. Later in the day I called back and left a counter offer on the persons voice mail that has been calling me that is significantly more than their offer. We will see what happens. One reason we upgraded because we were 9 points away from Diamond so a JS with double points would get us over the hump. What most disappointing to me is my wife was so excited about this trip and a Suite and she is now seriously stressed and upset about this she is now just worried about what kind of room we are going to be "stuck" with. While I know logically something will work out it's really put a damper on the trip now. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moltar Posted January 21, 2020 #290 Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) Chaswelf, I hope it works out for you, that just ain't right. Also, more proof in the pudding for me at least to stick with always choosing my room. I always imagine these scenarios when I see that option when booking. I'm a reactionary, I would be livid for quite awhile before I could calmly think things through. Edited January 21, 2020 by Moltar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When a TA makes a booking, it is the TA (By contractual obligation) owns the booking. The TA, not the end passenger would have ZERO direct contact with the cruise line. Your TA has to have been notified and agreed to this change on the OP’s behalf. your issue is NOT with RCCL, it is 100% the TA who is to blame.

Well to add salt to the wound this morning I received an email letting me know I can still royal up, they have taking bids on Grand suites and above.. This is so disappointing I can't even believe it... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that but the stress of having to deal with this at the last minute and disappointment that they even had to offer has taken all the fun and excitement out of this trip. And even if we get our room its going to be in the back of our minds that we had to fight to keep what we purchased which will shed a different light on the whole trip.

If they paid for a category then they should get it. RC needs to cut off booking before everything is sold out and assign the rooms. Open it back up again when they know exactly what's left.

In a lot cases those offers go out when they do not have inventory in those cabins. They are just simply looking for people who would be willing to pay for them in the event that someone cancels . Just because you received that offer does not mean that they have a cabin that they could have upgraded you to. It is also a third party company that runs the upgrade program that would have no knowledge of what you are hoping through. Hope everything works out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
