We are going on a cruise next week...

Question

for out stateroom it says TBA...I know this means to be announced, but what exactly does this mean. Why can you pick some staterooms, but for a lower fare, get a TBA room?

Answer 1

Cruise lines hold back the lowest priced cabins as TBA's. Some times you will get a great location for your cabin like mid ship other times you might be far forward and the ride might be a little rougher.  If you don't care where your cabin is located then the guarantee is a good deal.

We hope you used a qualifed cruise travel agent when booking your trip.  If not next time try this web site for a well qualified cruise agent.

Answer 2

They'll assign the day you get there

Answer 3

I book thay way every time and most of the time get a uprgade to a great room.. once in a while I get just what I payed for.. I think that it's part of the fun too see where I end up. never spend much time in the room anyway. and having been all over the ships there is not really nuch diffrence in where you end up.. some rooms are closer to some thing but then there farther away from other things. HAVE FUN !!!!

Answer 4

it means to be announced. that means that they will find you any avalible room. because youi maybe booked a little late or something. Have fun!

Answer 5

i did that my last cruise back in Feb and let the cruise line assign the stateroom rather than me choosing one. that way we were able to get a nice upgrade after the cruise line got a chance to check their guest list and room availability so they could make some adjustments.
