I searched and the last thread on this subject is from 2019.

Can I book a GTY rate category with a placeholder. I have seen yes for GTY but not a *GT ( I am not even sure what that is , and I have seen no not at all. Guidance please?
 
Yes GTY, no *GT. A *GT rate will say "with restrictions". You have to pay the entire fare up front and there are no changes or cancellations. A GTY is a regular booking with regular cancellation terms, you just don't choose your stateroom. GTY rates are usually the same or more than regular rates. *GT rates are discounted.

Thankyou so much!!
 

Just had an aha moment reading this. I had my eye on a VGT rate $3900 for an upcoming cruise. Didn't book it and I thought the VGT rate went up to $5100. Now I'm realizing that what really happened was the VGT went away and it was (and still is) a GTY that was $5100. GTY is actually more than the "pick your own" option, which I don't really get.

The VGT came back and I booked it, yippee. I couldn't have used the placeholder regardless, it's blacked out those days..
