alaska mcleods Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 First time RC cruising. Multiple families going to Alaska July 2023. My own personal family is my husband and I, and our two children who will be 19 and 16 at the time of the sailing. I wasn't able to book parents in own cabin/kids in own cabin online. So I ended up booking one parent/one child in two different cabins. We were not able to get connecting cabins as we are a tad late in getting close cabins, tho we are all on the same floor and same side of the ship, deck 7 on Radiance of the Seas. Am I able to call in and have them switch an adult and child around so the kids get their own cabin and the adults get their own cabin? Is this frowned upon? Can we switch people and cabins once on board or is this really frowned upon too? I understand that our key cards may be a bit mixed up and we'll have to juggle them around when we get off the ship for identification purposes (which is ok, we'll be getting off and on together anyway). TIA!!! These boards have been so helpful!!! KristiZ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 You have to wait until you get onboard and then go to Guest Services to change the key assignments. alaska mcleods 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morganno Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 People also do this to get the one deluxe package what they do is they can print a duplicate key for you that just opens the door so the parent that swaps rooms still has account privileges on it. alaska mcleods 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovetocruise2002 Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 I know this may not be too helpful at this point, but for future bookings, if you cannot get actual connecting cabins for the kids, Royal will allow you to book the kids in their own cabin if it's adjacent or right next door. I have done this before, never went through with it because we ended up upgrading both times, but I was able to hold and deposit with that type of booking. Note: a TA did help me do this both times so I have no clue if they would allow this type of booking online alaska mcleods 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 2 cruises booked online with this being my scenario. Your TA got someone on the phone and they did some sort of override. alaska mcleods, Lovetocruise2002 and asquared17 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pooch Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 Once on board, Royal doesn’t care who sleeps where (as long as your kids don’t create a disturbance). Stop at guest services and get extra keys for each room & set it up however you want. alaska mcleods 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
