June Bug Posted January 26, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 26, 2023 This is our 25th cruise with Carnival, and even with TBA rooms, we’ve always found out our room assignment at least a week before sailing. I called Carnival today and they told me that they must send/verify all final names/info to the ships at least 2 days prior to sailing so she’s not sure why we haven’t received our room number yet. It’s really no big deal to us, but just wondered why they wait sometimes to assign a cabin? I’ve seen some say they don’t find out till boarding. That’s crazy it takes that long, but I guess wherever we are, at least we are onboard. 😂😂😂😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mkcurran Posted January 26, 2023 #2 Share Posted January 26, 2023 They are looking for a broom closet with a balcony. 🤣 Hopefully you'll come up a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
June Bug Posted January 26, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Bahahaha! Probably! But hey! I’d be ok, as long as they fed me and gave me a restroom to use! 😂😂😂😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jiggs Posted January 26, 2023 #4 Share Posted January 26, 2023 the manifest probably does not require room numbers...just souls on board. With that, the upsell fairy is probably hard at work trying to get some additional $$ for CCL before they assign remaining cabins. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably…the woman did tell me all standard balconies were sold out, so maybe I WILL be upgraded to a broom closet with a bigger balcony! 😂 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BoozinCroozin Posted January 26, 2023 #6 Share Posted January 26, 2023 I am guessing that they are trying to accommodate all of the upgrades they are charging for to figure out rooms available for the TBA people. That is just my thought. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sparks1093 Posted January 26, 2023 #7 Share Posted January 26, 2023 I also think this has something to do with the upsell fairy being hard at work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pe4all Posted January 26, 2023 #8 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Keep checking your account - maybe the cabin # will pop up. Wouldn't it be sweet if you were upgraded to a suite! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
