Let's use this thread to keep track of IGT, OGT and VGT assignments?

[AAshleySEG]

8/25 Fantasy is in! We are in 76954. Can anyone tell me about that room?

Does that room exist? Seems like a lot of numbers Rofl!

I think it would be interesting to see what kind of rooms are being assigned when booking a IGT, OGT or VGT room. I'm interested to see what categories are assigned, if the assigned rooms are in desirable locations, etc. I didn't see a thread that followed these over time, so if you booked one of these rooms could you please post your assignments when you get them (or post now if you recently got your assignment)? Please include:

#1. Did you book a IGT, OGT or VGT room, and on which ship?
#2. How many days before the cruise were you assigned your room?
#3. What category (ex: 7a, 4c, 11c or whatever) and room # did you get?
#4. Are you happy with your assignment or do you feel like you got a "leftover"- undesirable room/location?
#5. If you booked more than one room, are they close together?
#6. How many days before departure date did you book?

I think tracking this info over time will give us a better idea of what we might anticipate when booking one of these bargain rooms...

1: We booked a VGT room on the Fantasy
2: I can't remember exactly...but a couple of weeks before we sailed on a Monday, I think.
3: Category 4D - room 6140
4: VERY happy with the room assignment
5: Only had one room but will have two rooms this time and we'll see how it goes.
6:We booked 4 weeks in advance. This time we booked about 7 weeks in advance.

Was so excited to finally see a room #. Not what I was hoping for, after seeing all the fabulous upgrades.

I see from your post on GTY thread that your Cabin is:
7654

Did you book GTY or did you book VGT? I believe there is a difference between the two;I am sure someone else can explain better than I can.

I booked VGT, so I don't think it was an upgrade. It's not even the Family verandah room. They are still selling VGT for that cruise.

I should be happy, right? I'm not very knowledgeable about DCL categories. I would have liked a big aft veranda but this is great. It's a connecting cabin - any thoughts on the cons of that?

IGT/OGT/VGT are only for parties of 4 or less. Since 5 people can only fit in categories 4 or 8 it would really limit what they could give you and negate the fact that they are trying to fill up rooms.
