lcmdir Posted September 14, 2010 #1 Share Posted September 14, 2010 It really does happen -- Carnival phoned with an upsale offer; I promptly said yes and we moved from an inside to a balcony at a discounted price. Am I excited? WooHoo, you bet! Our cruise is 9/18/10 on the Legend out of Tampa. Anna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superrupe Posted September 14, 2010 #2 Share Posted September 14, 2010 If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for the upsale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcmdir Posted September 15, 2010 Author #4 Share Posted September 15, 2010 $150 per person to move from inside to balcony -- our inside was $369 so the total is $519. This a fair price (I think) not a screamer discount but I am happy -- hope the information is helpful. Anna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSRussell Posted September 15, 2010 #7 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I am so happy for you!!!! I just returned from the Legend, and I had a fabulous time. You will love the dancing waiters and Ken, the MaitreD is fantasic,. I kept telling myself that one night I was just going to graze on the Lido for dinner, but ended up in the MDR each night. I took videos of the waiter dance, they are on UTube. The balcony, you will LOVE!! Melanie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcmdir Posted September 15, 2010 Author #10 Share Posted September 15, 2010 My Carnival PVP said he had just put me on a "list for guests interested in upgrades" and then the phone call came. This list is news to me. He got a very big thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We looked at the location, and said "Noooooo thanks......" after seeing the location. Not even for $50.00 pp more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pkrchkr Posted September 17, 2010 #17 Share Posted September 17, 2010 My Carnival PVP said he had just put me on a "list for guests interested in upgrades" and then the phone call came. This list is news to me. He got a very big thank you! I didn't know there was a list? I wonder if I can get on it...We booked 5 cabins I wonder if all of us can get on it:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcmdir Posted September 17, 2010 Author #18 Share Posted September 17, 2010 No it isn't cabin 8230 -- although that one looks ok to me (well, being under the buffet area might be a bit noisy at times). I guess one person's bad can be another's good find and thank goodness we aren't all the same. Have a great cruise! Anna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSailinSOB Posted September 17, 2010 #19 Share Posted September 17, 2010 I want a call from the upgrade fairy. But I am greedy and want it fo free LOL :D Nah that is awesome. I would have jumped on that price too. Good job and you will love the Legend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
