We are sailing on the Dream over Memorial Weekend (May 27-30) and we booked a while ago - GTY is what our stateroom currently shows on the app and the details read "Guaranteed Verandah Stateroom with Restrictions" I have no idea what we'll end up in - but I looked at how many verandah staterooms were left open and there were 201 at my last count - so we truly could be placed anywhere on the ship! Deck 10 has the most open verandah rooms, followed by decks 7, 6, 9, 8. Deck 5 only had ten open verandah staterooms. Getting nervous as we are only two weeks away from our online check in ... hoping we have a stateroom assigned quickly!

I also booked this cruise as VGT and have the same “guaranteed verandah stateroom with restrictions” wording in the app. I hadn’t taken the time to see what rooms were available, so thank you for posting. Here’s hoping we get an assignment soon!

Remind me how you can see the open rooms left for a particular category on a sailing?

If there is a special way - I don’t know it! I just went into each verandah category and counted manually. If there is a better way to do it - I’d love to hear about it! Cause it is tedious!

I go to Costco’s travel website and look at the cruise and it’s pretty easy to see what’s available on their deck plan of the ship

Can I ask when in May you are sailing? We are sailing end of May and still don’t have our VGT assigned yet.

We're on the May 14 Eastern cruise.

Someone else a few pages back had theirs assigned a few weeks ago for the same cruise. Not sure what the rhyme or reason is.

Interesting! We sail May 27, so I assume we won’t know for a while yet!

Then we are in good company! Hoping we find out sooner vs later. There seem to be plenty of verandah rooms left on the ship!
