No assigned cabin yet. When to worry?

DaveOKC · October 25, 2014

Our trip is 10 days to the Southern Caribbean. They wanted an additional $1099 pp

I guess they gave me a "free" extra day with my offer!

Thanks for the reply information.

Just curious, for all those who got their cabin assignment 3 days or less before sailing,

Were you happy with the assignment?

Were you assigned the same cat that you bought, or a higher cat? An example would be from an F cat to a D cat?

What is your experience with this???

I'm sure Smokesmom is curious too, as we are on the same curise:)

In our case (1.5 days from sailing date) we were very happy. We had booked an inside cabin for the first time and were assigned a very well located outside cabin. :)

On that cruise I went form an inside to an outside.

We are also waiting along with CaliforniaAC and Smokesmom. Not as much worried as just anxious.

I hope everyone will get their assignment soon and hopefully it will be worth waiting for.

I know just how you feel. I am just obsessing over it. Checking my reservations 2 or 3 times during the day. Just crazy. I think embarkation is stressful enough so I hope I don't have to add getting a room assignment at the pier to the mix.

You think you are "obsessing" becasue you are checking 2 or 3 times a day!!??

Try 8 times a day and then you can say that !!!!!!

We book only guarentees.

A lot of HAL cruises and we have never been assigned the category we booked. Only once we weren't too happy with the cabin which was under the kitchen AND besides the stacks coming up from the engine room.

The ones where we were assigned really late were all good, probalbe better than normal.

God luck on your assignment!

Thank you dear Crus Chic! :D

I wear out the hal website looking for mine. I'd be in the same boat waiting for an assignment but I took an upsell. The wait is over for me thankfully.

sail7seas · October 26, 2014

Hope you'll let us know if you are happy with the assignment when you get it.

Good luck. :)

Truthfully, we can hardly wait to feel the deck under our feet :D. Hopefully we'll get a stateroom to go with it!

Congrats on the upsell!

When we did the last one upsell, we had to pick a cabin.

If we had wanted another guarentee, we would have had to take a category way down the list, instead of the top one. So, there was no surprise!

Whenever I've done an upsell I've always got to pick the cabin so it's nice that way.

Unbelievable as it may seem, we would prefer to upsell to a guarentee. Just don't like picking cabins.

Enjoy your upsell and have a great time on the N. Amsterdam!

I like taking a guarantee for the original choice but when I pay extra I like to pick. That said I always pick my cabin on princess. I've gotten too many stinkers for assignments. Thx for the nice wishes for my cruise:).

navybankerteacher · October 26, 2014

Before I remarried I cruised solo and either booked last minute - within a few days of sailing when prices dropped, or (two times) booked an inside guarantee when I wanted to book in advance. Both times I was upgraded to an outside, but only found out when I reached the terminal, and got my cabin numbers from the stevedores who who took my bag.

cruz chic · October 28, 2014

I'm wondering if the OP and others have gotten their assignment yet.

M&L-Colorado · October 29, 2014

We have not. As CaliforniaAC said in another thread, "still homeless." 5-1/2 days til boarding.

Mike

cruz chic · October 29, 2014

Ohhhhhhhh...so frustrating. Hope you hear soon!

Cruising-along · October 29, 2014

When I saw new posts on this thread I thought there would be assignment news -- waiting to hear too!

CaliforniaAC · October 29, 2014

Still homeless:).

Called Hal today to arrange laundry and pressing, so they know I 'm on my way, and they were surprised I had not gotten my cabin assignment either.

Didn't ask about the room, because that was not what I was calling about.

More tomorrow:)

cruz chic · October 29, 2014

Fingers crossed for you!
