Curt From Canada Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 Sorry everyone ... I tried to search this one, and it was difficult to get a comprehensive answer. We just booked an Anthem FEB 2020 #GTY Balcony (non-refundable). Does anyone have a sense when the room might be assigned? We are about 90 days away from boarding.

That sounds about right. No panic on my end, just an "Ultra-Planner" getting ready for a great cruise. Curt from Canada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mworkman Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 I'm 298 days out and in a gty balcony and it's showing a price but no rooms available even on third party sites and no category above us available either. It will be interesting to see when they publish our room number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen2 Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 We are 135, 146, and 163 days out on three B2Bs, and have had our GTY balconies assigned on all three for well over a month. It varies pretty much how soon you will know. Note: three different cabins. mworkman, DLXLDY and WAAAYTOOO 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ditchdoc Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 We are currently 35 days out GTY with no assignment. Our eDocs now show the deck but no room. Our cruise is over the New Year and popular so it is probably fully booked and that could have some bearing. I found out the bar code on the eDocs has the room embedded. A bar code reader for your smart phone camera can decode the bar code. The last 6 digits or so are the deck and room number. Checking the deck plan, the bar code for our cruise appears to be the correct deck and room type is correct. I guess there is no guarantee until your bags are in the room but this bar code trick just might confirm your room before it becomes official. jfer76 and desert_Noelle 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Burd Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 We are 15 days out and we just got our room assignment today. The bar code did not work for me as it didn't show the room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PRebecca Posted November 25, 2019 Report Share Posted November 25, 2019 The barcode on mine shows a non existent room but is an awesome trick when its accurate! We're 40 days out and no assignment, deck or docs yet. Many rooms open still for booking so patiently (maybe not) waiting to see where we end up Kinda like Christmas Happy sailing!

Rob&Ana Posted November 25, 2019 Report Share Posted November 25, 2019 They seem to be assigning the rooms quite close to the sale date and my guess is the Royal Up has something to do with this. On my last 2 GTY rooms we were assigned better than we booked and they were about 15-20 days from sailing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlantix2000 Posted November 25, 2019 Report Share Posted November 25, 2019 When you agree to a guarantee room, the fine print says it can be assigned up to and including the day of departure! PRebecca 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dancingfish Posted November 25, 2019 Report Share Posted November 25, 2019 I just got back from a cruise yesterday and loved our GTY room.. Which we were assigned about 9 days out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyold Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 We were assigned ~30 days out, on Adventure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRebecca Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 we got ours assigned yesterday at 38 days out. Hoping for (but not counting on) our Royal Up being accepted, if not I am happy with the cabin, I know not to complain about a GTY assignment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolly Ogre Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 22 days out still nothing on the GTY. I did a mock book and the cruise is sold out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neenals Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 We also have a GTY and are out 249 days yet. This morning I purchased a photo package and just received a new Cruise Vacation Receipt. It still shows GTY but now shows "Stateroom Obstruction 0%". That was not on the last one I received. Has anyone seen that before? Sounds promising to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveinSC Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 assigned at 130 days out. I suspect this is in the minority as far as how far out you can get an assignment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharpei888 Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 I just received a final receipt. It shows obstructed percentage 0. What does that mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt From Canada Posted November 27, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 The sample set is still too small to draw any conclusions. However, I have taken up the challenge to assemble the data on GTY Assignment. Send me any and all experiences and I will prepare the data set this weekend. Never ask an Engineer what the data might tell us. Curt from Canada DLXLDY and AshleyDillo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a gty and just received a new receipt and the only thing that has changed on it is that it has a new line for that on it. So who knows?
