Official thread to keep track of GTY cabins ASSIGNED

[PaMomofOne]

PAMomofOne, my DD#2 has had pretty awful motion sickness since she was very small. I actually prefer aft for her if we aren't midship. IMHO it is much preferable to forward. Just my 2 cents…. I think you'll be fine. Enjoy![/QUOTE

Thanks so much for the response! That makes me feel a little better!

Just got a 5E GTY for November 30.

*Fingers crossed*

I hope I'll get an oversized balcony... I wanted that category for that reason.

We have two toddlers so it's a bit scary.

I wouldn't worry too much. You can lock the verandah door and the balcony guards are high enough. Even I (5'4") would have a hard time going overboard.

It's a fantastic upgrade.

 

[imtotallyelsa]

Good to know! Thank you. I feel much better about it now.

Good to know! Thank you. I feel much better about it now.

Here is my 6 foot 2 husband on the verandah.

I have a quick question. I booked a 9B GTY for a cruise that takes place in June of 2016. I logged in and saw I had a room number. Should I count on this being our room or is there a good chance it will be changed? From everything I have read it seems like this would be very early to get a room assigned. Thank you!

 

[mevelandry]

I was told on this board that most of the time, once a room is assigned to you, it usually doesn't change.

 

[gizzardgoop]

After we were assigned we were able to move our cabin as long as it was within the same category.

 

[mevelandry]

You are paying for at least a 5E. Disney reserves the right to upgrade you at their leisure. (And yes, 4E is an upgrade according to them.)

If the 4E balcony is smaller than the 5E (is it? I booked 5E without knowing what I booked, I chose this one because it was the least expensive verandah room category available), why is this considered an upgrade?
