bohaiboy Posted July 7, 2021 #1 Share Posted July 7, 2021 When we transferred from the Whisper to the Shadow due to Covid related issues in Norway (borders closed) we were given a GTY Suite which I think means pot luck. Does anyone know when SS assigns these rooms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseej Posted July 7, 2021 #2 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Could be a week after your booking. Could be when you are at the dock waiting to board. And usually sometime in between! 😉 I think 30-60 days before sailing is most common (but others here who have more experience with this will chime in if I'm wrong). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bohaiboy Posted July 7, 2021 Author #3 Share Posted July 7, 2021 We are 43 days from sailing on the Shadow. Wondering since SS has this new cancellation policy(cancel up to 30 days from sailing for a FCC) if they may be waiting to see if any people bail on his cruise.

Rare Silver Spectre Posted July 14, 2021 #9 Share Posted July 14, 2021 (edited) We just had a GTY released 6 months out. In the past it’s been more like 4 weeks though. Edited July 14, 2021 by Silver Spectre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In June I got my cabin assignment on a Monday for a cruise sailing on the Friday. It's my only guarantee experience with SS so I can't advise what is "normal." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Silver Spectre Posted August 8, 2022 #14 Share Posted August 8, 2022 It’s pretty unlikely you will have to wait until you get on the ship, but even if you did would it really matter? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare bobolz Posted August 9, 2022 #16 Share Posted August 9, 2022 We scheduled a last minute cruise with a vista gty and found out at least 2 weeks b4 we had a veranda room, so we were happy. We booked another vista gty for a cruise Next year on the dawn and have already been assigned another veranda suite. So both gtys resulted in upgrades to veranda suites, but they were both on the muse type ships . Our first gty was relatively central on deck 5, our gty next year is on Deck 5 , but closer to the front of the ship. Can anyone provide insight on room 505 on the dawn . Is that an undesirable location? Thanks in advance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
