    13 days away and still nothing. More nervous now than when I posted this initially.

    I had a very similar experience with a chartered cruise.  I was scheduled for 1-16-22 OA and was booked in the Owner's Panoramic Suite.  That cruise got cancelled due to a full ship charter.  They were willing to move me to the 1-30-22 OA sailing but the OPS is one-of-a-kind and was already booked.  They moved me to one of the Star Loft Suites but refused to price protect the booking so I ended up in a lower category suite for more money.
    I still have that booking !  ...but I never really intended to take it.  I am still pi$$sed off about the way they handled it.  Now I'm really glad that I didn't cancel right away (I would have gotten an FCC) b/c now I will be able to get a cash refund if the vax protocols do not lighten up - and I fully expect they will NOT.
    The great thing about the big suites are they are AWESOME.  The bad thing about the big suites is that they are scarce.  If you have to start switching ships it becomes very difficult to get equity.  I do, however, have a story about a GOOD outcome when changing ships.  MANY months ago I booked an Owner's Suite on Empress with the express intention of L&S to another ship.  The end result was a Star Loft Suite on Allure...so in that case, I actually ended up with a BETTER suite for the same price.  So it does happen...it's just very, very rare.

    All you can do is wait until they have a firm cabin for you.  Different ships classes don't map to each other well and there are limited resources who are all very busy handling an overload of rebookings.  
    You may or may not like the outcome so start preparing yourself for that scenario.
    I was in a 2 bedroom Aquatheater suite on Allure that was mapped to a 2 bedroom grand suite on Liberty.  The only thing these have in common are two bedrooms.  One is Star Class the other is not.  So on and so forth.  At the end of the day after a lot of back and forth that was the best they could do so I requested a refund. 
    I hated losing the booking but there is this pandemic wreaking havoc on the world and my bad day losing a great cruise booking seemed pale in comparison to what some people have been through so I got over my initial disappointment pretty quickly.
