What is a Category Guarantee?
By purchasing a guarantee cabin, at minimum you will receive a stateroom in the category you have booked, with the possibility of receiving an upgrade. Stateroom categories don’t always correspond to the decks on a ship, so in some cases receiving a stateroom or category upgrade will mean your stateroom is on a lower deck. Guarantee cabins are often a more financially attractive option than securing a specific stateroom, however as guarantee cabins are assigned by the cruise line, you will not know the location, view or bedding of your cabin until it has been assigned. In addition, if you have booked more than one cabin, the cabins may not necessarily be near each other. If these are important considerations for you, you may wish to consider purchasing a cabin assignment rather than a guarantee.
