zincman Posted May 20, 2010 #1 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Im sailing with the gf on the Jewel December 26th in a J stateroom ( her birthday present). I wanted to do something a little extra so I enquired about the Balconys and Minisuites. They offered me a AF minisuite for less than 500 dollars over the cost of the J stateroom.. I booked of course.. did I do ok? This is our first time sailing with NCL, and I can not wait to suprise her with this trip.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs. H. Posted May 20, 2010 #2 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I just took a quick look and see that its a $513 difference to go up 13 cat. I think you did very well. 1) your not in an inside 2) you have a balcony 3) you have more room Enjoy your cruise. Glad you took the upgrade. You will be to.

BikerAl Posted May 20, 2010 #3 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I think any time you feel good about doing something, you did good. The price may go higher or lower, but so what? The day you bought it, was a great deal, so no matter what happens, be happy. Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, yes, I think you did get a good deal. You will love the balcony and the extra cabin space. You are a great boyfriend, I bet she thinks you are a keeper!!!

champagne123 Posted May 24, 2010 #20 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Zincman...I do not think that you need ANYTHING to make this trip more romantic. You as a person sound romantic enough. Some mini-suites have tubs. Does yours? If so, don't forget the bubble bath!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouCap Posted May 24, 2010 #21 Share Posted May 24, 2010 You got a great deal and will love the mini-suite. It's nice to have the extra space.:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PattyWinters503 Posted June 17, 2010 #23 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I actually called and inquired about another family and was able to upgrade my small inside cabin to a balcony for less then the original price of the inside cabin...Not bad! I figured it was in the winter..why would I need a balcony to come up and down the atlancit and freeze... but the prices on this trip are amazing!!
