This new Early Assign program from Royal Caribbean officially kicked off yesterday for guests in eligible guarantee categories with available inventory. Early Assign is a new Royal Caribbean program that only affects guests who book guaranteed staterooms. Guests booked in guaranteed cabins will receive communication from Royal Caribbean when Early Assign opens for their booking. The $30 Early Assign fee is non-refundable, even if a stateroom change cannot be accommodated. Also, if a cruise booking is canceled, the Early Assign fee is forfeited and not refunded, regardless of cancellation timing.
