GTY Rooms

For some reason our TA booked our upcoming cruise on the Encore as a GTY. We leave in a couple of weeks and I was wondering if Seabourn typically assigns a specific room prior to the cruise or at the pier.....

I would say more often a bit in advance, but you cannot 'guarantee' it!

I'm 50/50 with the GTY. The first time I didn't have a room until after I boarded. The second time I had it a few months out (I logged into the Seabourn site to find it).

I've taken a GTY several times in the last couple of years. I've usually had my allocation 7-10 days before the cruise.

I’ve done an OB gty twice on SB and ended up in nicely located V6s on deck 7 and 8. Suite assignment usually comes in 2 weeks to 10 days prior to sailing.

I would also suggest that you have a word with your TA. They should never book a suite category without your express permission. You need to tell them what category to book (not the other way around). Or perhaps look for another TA who is more upfront during the booking process.

Great advice.

Leaving 7/14 for 21 days. Guarantee verandah. Nothing yet. Hopefully wont get 502 or 503 on the Odyssey. It is a crap shoot.

Thanks for all of the feedback! Location doesn't really matter to us, all that much, although it's nice having a room assignment prior to boarding day lol We have 11 days until the cruise, so I'll keep checking the website ;)

UPDATE: Just checked and saw that our room was assigned today! V6 Suite 843

We're ready to go!

You’re still on the ship. So long as you’re immune to the motion of the ocean it’s all good. [emoji6]
