I did the same for this sailing. Had a Balcony room - bid just a tad over min for the PH Suite as a Jic...placed mid bets on the Haven - ended up getting the PH (SC) as well! It's my first cruise so ill take what I can get.

Checked my email today to see the beautiful words I've been waiting for "You've Been Awarded An Upgrade Advantage!" - didn't get my Haven but happy to go from Balcony to PH suite - offered 350/pp. No too shabby!!

Watching these cabins like a hawk, looking to score an upgrade from my Balcony - either via direct upgrade or Bidding for the upgrade. Sailing out on the Joy on Dec 18 - we are 22 days out. Check ins begin tomorrow and still not completely sold out on really anything from what I see excluding some Haven Categories and Oceanview for more than 2 ppl. I have bids on everything above PH Suite w/ Balcony - all at mid tier. It's my first time cruising so wondering Is it normal for a sailing to still be pretty much available room wise this close to sailing?

Thanks for your insight. Think ill just check what the upgrade cost is right now and if it works it works - maybe check again if anything is still there closer to sailing. Keeping my fingers crossed. Luckily I at least booked my Balcony so anything more is just a plus!

First time cruising on the NCL Joy this December and wanted to get an idea of the upgrade process. I booked in Oct of 2022 and about a week later get the email to upgrade cabin. I booked a Balcony room because I am new to cruising and am pretty sure I get sea sick if I can recall from an old whale watching trip in my late teens (havent been on a boat in awhile) I really wanted to put myself in the best situation to have a good trip. I decided last night to pull the trigger on the upgrade since it was showing a lower price for the Haven. I put in a bid for Starting bid dropped a lot from the OG offer I received - its now at 300PP and 400PP for the PH Fwd Facing balcony and I went a little above for each however still in the "Poor" section. When I check the sailing there is about 17 open Haven cabins still. Cruise is about 34 days out. Im wondering if I should up all these to the same amount since I would be okay with any of them. Maybe up the offer on all to my max i'm wiling to spend?! WWYD? Also Please send some good mojo my way as well! would love to experience the Haven for our first cruise and for our Xmas holiday!
