crilski Posted June 27, 2022 #1 Share Posted June 27, 2022 In the past - I have been able to move cabins if in the same category with no additional charge. I asked my TA to move me from deck 8 to deck 10 - same category. Royal wants to charge for the move. I understand if it is a different category, but it is not. When did this change?

firefly333 Posted June 27, 2022 #2 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Maybe it's your TA who wants to charge for more work. Not rcl. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted June 27, 2022 #3 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Are you sure it's really the same room category? There can be up to 4 sub categories with in one type of cabin class. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare S.A.M.J.R. Posted June 27, 2022 #4 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I noticed when checking for price drops that Royal would have "Included" when selecting a cabin in the back 3rd of the ship, then "+$xxx" for the middle 3rd and/or front third. Any chance your request changed locations? Although now that I think about it, that should change room category I'm guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARandomTraveler Posted June 27, 2022 #5 Share Posted June 27, 2022 (edited) If your original room is at the front or the back of the ship, and you want to move to a room in the center, there's usually an up-charge of like $40 for that. Could that be where the extra charge is coming from? Edited June 27, 2022 by ARandomTraveler 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare DCPIV Posted June 27, 2022 #7 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Price points can change depending on room location. As mentioned, they now have a number of subcategories, and the typical difference is location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crilski Posted June 27, 2022 Author #8 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Wanted to move category 4D mid ship deck 8 to 4D forward deck 9 or 10. They wanted to charge $250 . I'm fine where I'm at - but I do like forward - usually quieter in the halls. Motion doesn't bother me. Oh well - guess they need the $$$. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be able to move with no charge What ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BecciBoo Posted June 27, 2022 #10 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Yeah, that's a new one on me! Maybe a different agent will give you a different answer! 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crilski Posted June 27, 2022 Author #11 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Ovation of the Seas . . . . . I hate to bother my TA again - since there is always a long hold. I just wondered if I missed something. Maybe I'll email Royal - I am a Diamond+ - not like they already don't get plenty of my money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royal won't change cabins without it going through your TA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mid ship cabins are 2D. 4D are basically 10+ cabins forward (front) or aft (back) of the elevators.

deliver42 Posted June 27, 2022 #15 Share Posted June 27, 2022 It may be your TA making the charge. Some do for any change. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbeyg Posted June 27, 2022 #16 Share Posted June 27, 2022 (edited) I’ve noticed as much as $129 difference in decks recently, pricing a JS. Some decks are preferred over others. Edited June 27, 2022 by barbeyg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some decks are preferred over others. There is no difference in pricing of junior suites by deck unless it is a different category of JS. Lots of times there will be J3 and J4 that can be booked by 2 guests and the J3 can also be booked by 4 guests. It is the cabin classification that determines the price not the deck. In your case it was a coincidence that one JS category was on a different deck than another JS category. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
