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

[smplyswt0712]

Pardon me for being a newbie, but I booked an IGT for the 11/14 Wonder cruise. How will I know when a room has been assigned? Will I get an email? Will it pop up somewhere on the site?

Thanks!

#1. Did you book a IGT, OGT or VGT room, and on which ship? VGT Fantasy 10/18/2014
#2. How many days before the cruise were you assigned your room? 10 days
#3. What category (ex: 7a, 4c, 11c or whatever) and room # did you get? 5B, room #8030
#4. Are you happy with your assignment or do you feel like you got a "leftover"- undesirable room/location? Very happy! I don't feel it was a leftover room, the location was quite close to the forward elevators but not so close that you heard the loudness or the Mid Ship Detective stuff. This was my second time booking a VGT - last time it was on the Dream and I actually ended up with a category 4A!
#5. If you booked more than one room, are they close together? N/A
#6. How many days before departure date did you book? I think 37 days.

I didn't get an email when my room was assigned. I just started checking my online check-in page, where it says your room assignment, everyday once it hit 15 days or so.

#4. Are you happy with your assignment or do you feel like you got a "leftover"- undesirable room/location? This was a great room for 3 of us, 1 using a pack n play. Closer to after stairs than mid deck made it easy to get to Cabanas or the pool areas.

#6. How many days before departure date did you book? I think 53 days.

#2. How many days before the cruise were you assigned your room? 11 days
#3. What category (ex: 7a, 4c, 11c or whatever) and room # did you get? 11A ,room #7129
#4. Are you happy with your assignment or do you feel like you got a "leftover"- undesirable room/location? I've literally never been on a cruise before, so I have no idea whether this is a good choice or not, but I was told I would want to be close to the center of the boat, so that's kind of a bummer.

#2. How many days before the cruise were you assigned your room? 11 days

#3. What category (ex: 7a, 4c, 11c or whatever) and room # did you get? 5A, room #9034

#4. Are you happy with your assignment or do you feel like you got a "leftover"- undesirable room/location? Tickled pink!! Let's be honest, clearly it's not a room someone would have selected if they had other options, as it's right at the forward elevators/stairs but we booked a VGT. Knew we'd not get a "choice" room for the great discount. Excited that it looks like a very short walk to midship elevators/stairs. Might hear some foot traffic, but I doubt it will bother us. Got a great deal, a good room and plan to have a super time.

#5. If you booked more than one room, are they close together? N/A

#6. How many days before departure date did you book? About 30 days.

Has anyone ever had an OGT and a VGT room traveling together and had the OGT room on the same deck as the VGT room? Not crossing my fingers but just wondering if that is possible.

There are not many ocean view and verandah rooms on the same deck. I would think it's highly unlikely for them to be close but you never know!

Which ship are you sailing?

On all 4 ships there are decks that have windows and verandahs. It may not be possible but keep your reservations linked and hopefully you'll only be 1 floor apart or somehow close, not on opposite ends of the ship.

On Magic & Wonder Cat 8 window cabins are near verandah cabins on decks 5,6 & 7.
On Dream/Fantasy, there are window cabins on decks 5-9 forward and aft with lots of verandah cabins in between. I would think the odds are better on these ships of finding something close to each other.


If not, don't despair. We have cruised with 19 in our in 6 cabins scattered. It's all good and worth the savings.

Thanks for the warm welcome!

We are sailing 1/14 on the Wonder (4 night Bahamian). Traveling with another family who booked a week before we did and got a VGT. I was holding out for the military rate but alas...this sailing won't have one. I snagged an OGT right before it sold out. Whew!

I will be happy to be anywhere on the ship but it would be fab if we could be on the same floor as our friends. We'll see!
