Exuma Girl Posted January 8, 2023 #28 Share Posted January 8, 2023 When my cabin number was issued on my set sail pass I called and asked to change cabins. Absolutely no problem. Just give a call . I wouldn’t mention the guarantee part just say you would like to move to another room and tell them which one. Good luck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck. Sure, encourage folks to mislead and cheat. Don't buy a guarantee if you want to pick your cabin in the end 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't buy a guarantee if you want to pick your cabin in the end Easy to say. I would have said I dont care, until they put me in a studio. Had I known a inside gty could be a studio I wouldnt have booked it. Pts matter and 1 instead of 2 pts matter to me as a solo. People sometimes get a choice they didnt know was possible. I'm still feeling ripped off by rcl. I paid more than the pp price, a surcharge. Royal up the first is a ov, not a regular inside. Nothing indicated to me a studio was a possible outcome on radiance. Only 5 of them, mos tpeople dont even know they exist. Color me mad. Easy to lecture if it's not you. Maybe rcl needs to list possible outcomes instead of you will get a cabin within the inside category. I dont care where it is. I care about pts. Wouldnt ever book a gty again. My trust for rcl is very low. Agree with others, time to look around at other lines... though I'm sure they are all broke and no better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't been able to cruise in many years so we're very happy to be going. If the room can be changed, that's great, but we're still going to go and have a great time no matter where the room is because in reality most of the time on a cruise is not spent in your room. And Thank you to the folks who actually offered advice, not criticism. Yeah we're a tough crowd. Kind of surprising on a website dedicated to such a happy, first-world topic as cruising, but there it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mullwi Posted January 9, 2023 #34 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Also, sometimes only guarante is available. My son and I booked earlier, but my daughter could not. She paid more for guaranty than we did and got deck 2. One of the interior interior cabins 🙁. She would not have booked guaranty if she had a choice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jean87510 Posted January 10, 2023 #35 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I usually book a GTY as its cheaper. Then I price stalk. I have had no issue ever moving a room. But I must point out I will pay the difference if I go from an inside to a balcony. Sometimes I have lost a $50 OBC which is such a deal breaker. I have moved GTY cabins to different floors but same category (inside or balcony). I have also been extremely successful with RoyalUp (4 for 4 since the restart). My point is yes it can be done. Only time I was not able to even move was an upcoming Greenland cruise which I ended up just moving to a different itinerary and paying a $200 penalty.

IJustWantToGo36 Posted January 10, 2023 #36 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Beed a clarification. I like the cabins no one wants- interior all the way forward. (4V) Since 4V is the lowest category, if I have an Interior Guarantee, does that mean that if it is available, regardless of where they put me, and I can move to any available 4V?

Correct, assuming a NA booking and a 4V assignment. Edited January 10, 2023 by Biker19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way the question was posed, I assumed the poster was talking about being assigned a 4V - you can only move to another available cabin in the same exact category. There may have been some very spotty reporting on downgrades - that is probably very YMMV. Edited January 10, 2023 by Biker19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
