How much is normally saved by booking one of these? Say a VGT?

This is an assignment tracking thread. I suggest starting a new thread if you have a question you want answered, or using the forum search function.

Last cruise we did VGT and got a great stateroom. Would love one this time with the extra murphy bed or an extended balcony. However, any time you book a VGT and don't get one of the tiny or non-private balconies you come out a winner!

Where are the "tiny or non private" balconies?!?

 

[Silverfox97]

Florida resident rates with cabin choice announced two days ago are $400 cheaper than the VGT rate!

This is why I'm waiting patiently for 10/27 on the Magic. No VGT available and we wouldn't be happy with IGT or OGT. Historically, FLR rates are a better deal than the *GT rates, so I'm just hoping they release them and we can add a 3rd cruise onto our already booked B2B......

If not, no biggie

Do an internet search for Disney Fantasy and the Tiny Dancer and or cabin 5188. There are also a few balconies where adjoining balconies are set at enough of an angle to view you neighbors space. Additionally, many people like the (I believe 4E) cabins that have normal space with overhang and additional space "in the sun". Don't know how i'd feel about people looking down on my balcony from theirs on a higher deck.

Not sure if you care about GTY upgrades, but I'm putting it here just in case it's helpful for someone.

#2. How many days before the cruise were you assigned your room? 8

#3. What category (ex: 7a, 4c, 11c or whatever) and room # did you get? 4D, #6630

#4. Are you happy with your assignment or do you feel like you got a "leftover"- undesirable room/location? Very pleased to have ended up in a midship, family sized room for the price we paid under the FLR rate. We paid $300 less than the VGT rate. We prefer to be higher (~deck 9) but can't complain!

There is a separate thread for GTY assignments since they are different kinds of reservations.

Just back....this was a fantastic room! 4C is almost as large as a Sky Suite on Celebrity. Plenty of storage room, nice queen bed with plenty of space to walk around, large closet......loved the rain shower too!
