caber Posted May 12, 2011 #2 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Booking a guaranteed cabin grade just means that you get a cabin in at least that grade. You don`t get to pick a number or deck. It could be anywhere on the ship but must be at least the grade specified. Unless you don`t want a particular position it is fine. We have booked this way several times and never been disappointed. We booked this way for our next cruise. We were allocated a cabin in a good position so we have asked now to have our booking marked "no upgrade". This way they cannot move us again.

capasamari Posted May 13, 2011 #3 Share Posted May 13, 2011 We booked an inside cabin on Arcadia on a guarantee basis, and ended up in an outside restricted view cabin (behind the lifeboats). This was an improvement of five grades and we were quite happy with it. You pay the cheaper price and take a chance that you will end up in a better more expensive cabin at no extra cost.

pauline wales Posted May 13, 2011 #4 Share Posted May 13, 2011 We booked a guarantee cabin for next week and have been allocated 4 decks up. Result! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southwinds Posted May 13, 2011 #5 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Weve dont that a few times.. and been upgraded.. This year we booked late and went up two grades.. result !! At the 12 week stage where the invoices have to be paid people then cancel.. and cabins become re available .. so you get one of those.. I expect as you book and some body cancels you get that cabin... its pot luck but its worked for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
