63galaxie Posted April 16, 2016 #1 Share Posted April 16, 2016 We just booked the W category for a suite guarantee on Oasis. It's an anniversary surprise for my husband. I'll be happy with any suite, but I'm wondering when others have received their room assignments. Is it truly at the port? Also, what's the earliest we can make restaurant and entertainment reservations? We leave October 8, 2016. Nothing is open to book online yet. Thank you for your assistance.

While your stateroom assignment could indeed come as late as the day you sail, you will most likely get assigned a JS stateroom before that. No set time for reservations to open, just keep checking your Cruise Planner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted April 16, 2016 #4 Share Posted April 16, 2016 For our upcoming Liberty cruise we also booked a "W" category. We received a JS cabin assignment within 24 hours. We did not like that it was a connecting cabin so I called and they moved us to a non-connecting mid-ship location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Allure last November we upgraded from a D3 to a W about 10 days prior to sailing. There were no JS cabins available to book online, only GS and W. We ended up getting the available GS and LOVED it. Probably will never happen again :-) Cabin was assigned in 2 or 3 days after upgrading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I booked a D1 on my Oasis sailing and would love to get upgraded to a suite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't upgrade to a category guarantee without initiating it yourself and paying for it unless of course the guarantee price comes down to what you already paid.

vettecruiser1 Posted April 21, 2016 #8 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Our "w" ended up being a JS hump on the allure. It was previously occupied by a pinnacle member that was upgraded to a GS. We meet them since we got their mail all week. With them being pinnacle they got lots of perks, that after talking to CA person extended to us as we are only emerald. Ended up with a bridge tour, dinner with the captain and nightly treats sent to our room. the JS on the hump is very very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeBTN Posted April 22, 2016 #10 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Was it a free upgrade or an upsell? I booked a D1 on my Oasis sailing and would love to get upgraded to a suite. We paid for the difference between our D5 and the W. It was about $600pp additional, but the GS was about $2,500 more pp as I recall. As I understand it Royal generally upgrades Pinnacles first, then D+, then D, and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
