Alaska Sept 2025 Balcony guarantee only...no assignments?

[GottaLuvCruising]

I'm looking at Alaska cruise tours for September 2025.  CANNOT get a balcony assignment.  Cruise after cruise, ship after ship, no assignments?  I don't want a guarantee.  

I can't believe they are all booked.  What kind of game is Princess playing?

use a TA, CVP or get a GTY only??   It is frustrating, I agree

So they ARE playing games...  I'm just checking for a friend and hoped to confirm there actually is availability.

Did you look at availability for 3 instead of 2?  If you see something, or don’t, I’d call your TA or CVP.  They can sometimes see available cabins we don’t see.  So annoying.

 

They also have a lot of block space on these ships for future cruises.

Some of those cruises have sold out. Post your dates here and someone might be able to help you. Cruise tours are very popular but I know it’s the balcony you are talking about. 
 

I know it’s crazy since it’s in 2025 but our Sept 2025 Canada NE cruise is almost sold out too.

Good idea!  Thanks! 

I have now found a few staterooms available and am sharing with my friends.
