My OGT room for my 10/28/21 Magic cruise was assigned 31 days in advance.I’m 30 days out from my sailing and my room is yet to be assigned. How far in advance do they usually notify people?
Pre-COVID days - GTY reservations would receive their room assignments in the 45-60 days out from cruise window. And *GT would receive their room assignments about 7-10 days out (usually on a Tuesday).I’m 30 days out from my sailing and my room is yet to be assigned. How far in advance do they usually notify people?
Time was you could check in for the cruise at your resort hotel (as well as at MCO), but that stopped several years ago. You check in at the port only.Thanks for the replies. So basically it should be a couple more weeks? Also, we're getting the cruise bus to the post from WL. Do you check in when they collect you (luggage tags etc) or is it still when you get to the terminal?
Hoping you booked very last minute as I don’t think I can wait that long for mine!Our VGT was assigned about 5 days before our cruise.

Our first cruise, we didn't find out our room assignment until we checked in at the port.Hoping you booked very last minute as I don’t think I can wait that long for mine!
You check in at the port, after you pass your Covid test.Do you check in when they collect you (luggage tags etc) or is it still when you get to the terminal?

Well, you could also have flown in while sitting next to someone with Covid on the plane. You could have been exposed to Covid at Disney World the day before the cruise. Your best friend you had lunch with the day before you left could have had it. The test is a preventative measure but not a guarantee, which is why they have masking and distancing onboard, etc. They can't run a testing center at the airport. The cruise port is the only workable place for them to test everyone.Bit crazy that we will bo boarding the Disney coach down to the port and it's only then they test us. Could be sat on the bus with people that are positive for Covid but won't know until we get to the port. And then if I test negative I'm allowed to board even though I've bene exposed. I can't wait for us all to be done with all this testing etc.
We've sailed twice since the restart (VGT) and received room assignment between 1 and 2 weeks prior to sailing. Currently booked on the 12/26 Fantasy and expect the same.I’m 30 days out from my sailing and my room is yet to be assigned. How far in advance do they usually notify people?
It doesn’t really matter when you book, they assign them in batches all at once. For our cruise in October, it was less than a week out for VGT and about a week before for GTY. Since VGT is discounted, that gets assigned last since they want to leave rooms open for people to book at full price, and have to balance the muster stations after all other rooms are booked.Hoping you booked very last minute as I don’t think I can wait that long for mine!
Same as me last month. Hope you got a good stateroom.I was just assigned my guaranteed verandah 31 days out from my cruise on the magic.
