brianco1973 Posted April 13, 2010 #1 Share Posted April 13, 2010 We (Myself, DW, DS (29 mths) just returned from a 4 day (Nassau and Freeport) on the Fascination out of Jacksonville. Three weeks before we left I got a call for an upgrade to the Owner's Suite from a Cat 12 Extended balcony. I was hesitant to spend the extra money on a 4 day but it will be our last cruise for a while (DW is 22 weeks pregnant) so I decided to splurge. The cruise was nice and relaxing and as my previous experience on the Fascination (we have sailed her 3 times) the crew was amazing. Here is a link to a video of the Owner's Suite for those that are interested I don't think I will spend the money on the Owner Suite for a short cruise again but it was a once in a lifetime opportunity.

poobears Posted April 13, 2010 #2 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Mind if I ask how much it was for the owners suite? Off to watch your video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianco1973 Posted April 13, 2010 Author #3 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Mind if I ask how much it was for the owners suite? Off to watch your video. It was a flat fee of $1400 for 3 people on top of the Cat 12 suite price that had already been paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poobears Posted April 13, 2010 #4 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Great info and video. Very nice room but I was surprised to see the really obstructed balcony. Think we'll stick with our 12 if we get the call. Thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianco1973 Posted April 13, 2010 Author #5 Share Posted April 13, 2010 The view was actually amazing up that high, the life boat wasn't in the way, but I did miss being close to the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bean-si Posted April 13, 2010 #7 Share Posted April 13, 2010 wow, that balcony is so small. I couldn't stand listening to the loud Lido deck music all the time when all I want to hear on the balcony is quiet and the water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paper1122 Posted April 13, 2010 #8 Share Posted April 13, 2010 When we were on the Inspiration last year they gave me the upsell call a couple of weeks prior to sailing. It was tempting but the cost for the upgrade alone was more than a mortgage payment, I couldn't do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
