Newby58 Posted July 23, 2022 #1 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Hi all, I booked a guarantee JS for 4 of us on Ovation. However my booking says a GTY balcony. Should I be worried? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I be worried? It means you have booked a guaranteed JS type balcony cabin that takes 4 but they will let you know on what deck and position of a cabin rather than you having the choice of picking your own cabin. Personally I prefer to choose my own as some cabins can be in noisy positions and I am a light sleeper. If this bothers you contact your travel agent or if you booked direct with Royal contact them and then ask them to change it. I believe you would have paid less by booking GTY. Choosing your cabin is more expensive. It is always better to have decks above and below that only have cabins unless noise is no issue for you.

You could get any suite but I wouldn’t hold my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I booked a Gty Interior, and they placed me in one of the Studio Interiors. If I had known that was a possibility, I would have never booked it. Lesson learned.

She said she would have felt claustrophobic in a studio interior one. I have to admit you do have to get in quick for one of those. Did they charge you for a studio or standard interior ? Studios do cost less for a solo passenger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never thought it would include a Studio size cabin. Like I said, lesson learned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should have given you a refund if you paid for a double person interior and ended up with a Studio. Some people don't mind the Gty but I like to pick my own cabin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted July 24, 2022 #12 Share Posted July 24, 2022 The main thing with guarantee cabins of any class is that you get a cabin in that class or better for a cheaper price. It is a gamble. If you want to have a particular cabin, select that one and pay for that privilege. We have had numerous gty cabins in different classes and have not been disappointed.
