grace3398 Posted May 25, 2022 #1 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Okay, I've read old posts and I know what I signed up for by getting a guarantee cabin but man, we sail Saturday and my room number is still "TBA." My anxiety cannot handle this LOL. Tell me I'm not alone in this being stressful? I am very aware we might not get an assignment until embarkation but I was really hoping it would be at least a LITTLE earlier so my luggage tags would be accurate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think by Thursday so you can know the room for luggage. I mean if you have to test for covid on Thursday the least CCL could do is have a room identified for you. I feel your pain and let us know how is ends up. What ship are you going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ray98 Posted May 25, 2022 #4 Share Posted May 25, 2022 (edited) No point in worrying about it....you are going to have a cabin. Treat it like a hotel, no one ever worries about what their room number will be. Edited May 25, 2022 by ray98 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sgttami Posted May 25, 2022 #6 Share Posted May 25, 2022 I've booked a GTY a few times and the earliest I ever got an assigned cabin was about an hour after I booked. I think the latest was about a week before. No worries. You will have a place to rest your weary head somewhere on board. LOL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsfan58 Posted May 25, 2022 #7 Share Posted May 25, 2022 We have all been there. That's the exact reason why we don't book guarantee anymore! The little money saved is not worth the agony. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In nearly 20 Carnival cruises, we have never done a guarantee cabin before, but it was a significant price difference this time (also on Panorama, but not until fall) so we decided to try it. Please let us know when you end up finding out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lyannea Posted May 26, 2022 #9 Share Posted May 26, 2022 The worst-case scenario, which happened to me, was that you won't know your cabin number till you arrive at the ship. IT was the one and only time this happened, pre-covid. I literally went to guest services to confirm my cabin number. To make matters more interesting, my luggage hadn't arrived, and I had to go back to guest services, where they had my luggage behind guest services. They were polite about it and got it to my cabin promptly. And, guess what, it was a fantastic cruise with a bump in the road. I was nervous throughout the ordeal, and have booked many guaranteed cabin since. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homosassa Posted May 26, 2022 #10 Share Posted May 26, 2022 If you do not have a room assignment and luggage tags before arrival at the pier, ask one of the porters taking the bag at curbside. They will be able to check a passenger manifest, find the cabin number and fill out the luggage tag with the cabin number before taking your luggage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One must always check in the terminal and one is given their cabin number at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is non stop scheming about how to get a room more that what you paid for and complaining about how their request for their special birthdanniveribabymoongradulation celebration wasn't granted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
