Phillip Diamond Plus Posted August 28, 2021 Report Posted August 28, 2021 Our balcony guarantee got us a connecting stateroom balcony aft location, near the stern on deck 7 Independence of the Seas 9/12 /21 cruise. That location is fine with us. As far as the connecting stateroom, we have had these rooms several times before and have never noticed any noise. We are thrilled to have saved major bucks by selecting the guarantee category. teddy and KristiZ 2 Quote

They will have blank luggage tags but I don't know how that works if it still doesn't show you a room number morning of the cruise! Quote

You can't give the porters your luggage before you have a cabin number. Quote

PG Cruiser Posted August 31, 2021 Report Posted August 31, 2021 @Kamehameah, we're on the same boat (figuratively, that is) I too booked a GTY room for the Allure sailing this Sunday (9/5). I was so excited to find a link for the luggage tag in my upcoming cruises, only to see that they're blank tags WAAAYTOOO and cruisellama 1 1 Quote

PG Cruiser Posted August 31, 2021 Report Posted August 31, 2021 This is the first time I've booked a GTY room. How does Royal inform the guests of room assignments? Do they send an email or do I have to keep checking my check-in information for the room assignment? Quote

I think I will go for a new record Way back before kids and the wife sold travel we used to book last minute cruises under a special "agent" rate. The only stipulation was we were never assigned a room until we arrived at the ship. We would have to grab the lead porter who would then get the ship manifest and find out the room assignment to us. I would bet you could do the same now! We always sailed for next to nothing but the stress of waiting to get that room assignment was killer! Quote
adclay33 Posted September 1, 2021 Author Report Posted September 1, 2021 Last night I noticed a pending charge on my CC from RCL. I checked my RC account and saw a new assigned CP balcony. This morning I got the Royal UP accepted bid email confirming! We leave Sunday (9/5)! So excited! We had a Boardwalk balcony in March 2020 right before the shutdown on Harmony and loved it!

We did our Royal Up bids on July 7th. It's possible we could get a Junior Suite upgrade, but if not, we are content with the cabin we've been assigned. Junior Suite upgrade came through last night, along with a lot of other people’s Royal Ups from what my wife saw in the Facebook groups WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote

Give it 24 hours...if it does doesn't update and the one in your edocs is still blank I think you have to call them to manually get it updated..or you can write the number in yourself! 4 more sleeps to go!

I already called earlier tonight. They said the system will generate a new eDoc with the updated luggage tag at 3AM. My OCD will go on overdrive if I have a handwritten luggage tag on my suitcase WAAAYTOOO and BrianB 1 1 Quote
