coolio111 Posted May 22, 2019 #1 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Hi All, I booked my cruise through the RCL website last January for my cruise this coming February. I have repriced this stateroom at least 2 times now, on Oasis of the Seas. Now I get an email from RCL that they will contact me because my stateroom is not able to accomodate the number of people I have in my cabin, which is 4 people. 2 adults and 2 kids. Can anyone shed some light what this email might really be about, because I do not believe that my stateroom can not accommodate 4 people especially since it has a sofa bed.

tayloire Posted May 22, 2019 #4 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Hi! I received a similar email today telling me the stateroom wouldn't accommodate my party. (It's a balcony stateroom for a party of 3!) I called the number in the email. At first the rep wasn't sure and had to put me on hold. After some time of being on hold, he told me the Oasis was being refurbished and that my statement room number itself would not change, and it would accommodate the 3 of us. What is changing is the category. But he said all the amenities would be the same. He also told me after today or tomorrow, I would not be able to access my reservation online for a few weeks. Hope that helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at the future deck plan too, after May 3, 2020, and it still shows the sofa bed. I don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be there system having issues. I tried to price a beverage package last night for my October cruise and it told me I could not buy anything because my cruise was 1 day away and purchases were closed. 😱😄 Today, my cruise is just fine and I can see sale prices on beverage packages.

awestover89 Posted May 22, 2019 #8 Share Posted May 22, 2019 There are staterooms with a single sofa bed that can only berth 3 passengers, but your stateroom shows a max berth of 4 people. There is the refurb, but that stateroom is a 1D balcony with a double sofa bed now, and still shows as a 1D with double sofa bed after the refurb. Probably some sort of IT glitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob, I just received this same e mail for my own personal cruise as well as for several clients and talked to a redeployment rep. What is happening is that several staterooms in several categories are being reclassified due to issues with lifeboat capacity in different muster stations creating issues. During the drydock a few weeks ago some of the cabins that held 4 were reconfigured to hold only 2 while some cabins that held 2 were reconfigured to hold 4. All the reclassification will be done in the next 3 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that helps! There were 2 different e mails that were sent out. Some will require the person to change staterooms while others will be ok in their existing stateroom but the category will change.

nickels549 Posted May 22, 2019 #18 Share Posted May 22, 2019 I just got off the phone with one of the RC reps and she told me they're going through recategorizing some of the cabins. I asked if it was possible that we may not have to change our cabin and she said, no it looks like your room will no longer hold 3 people. She gave no indication as to where we would end up. All she could tell me was that once the recategorizing was finished, RC would be calling those of us who needed to be relocated. She assured me our booking and rate would be protected. I guess only time will tell. What's frustrating is that we have family booked down the hall from us now, so unless they keep some triples on deck 9 (our current location), it's going to make things more difficult within our group.
