5waldos Posted October 12, 2011 #26 Share Posted October 12, 2011 I would love the opportunity to refuse an offer just to have the experience. And sometimes they are good- yesterday someone went from an inside to a balcony for something like $40 for the cabin. Not that would be a nice and friendly fairy.

Hockey Addict Posted October 12, 2011 Author #27 Share Posted October 12, 2011 On our first cruise, DH and I sailed with my bff. We booked an interior. BFF decided she wanted a OV. So we called and the rep told her how much more for her to upgrade. We didn't have a PVP at that time. She was cruising solo so it was a bit more, not too much to upgrade. Our reservations were hooked together.... then she said to me, we were on 3 way calling, that DH and I could also upgrade to a OV from the interior for NO EXTRA COST. THAT was a deal!! I bet we won't EVER be that lucky again.... BUT we have been lucky to get a OBC on every cruise since we book ES! I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks that fairy is drunk!! As someone else said.... he was drunk dialing!! :D I told my PVP about it and she was laughing.... she really is the best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vwrestler171 Posted October 12, 2011 #28 Share Posted October 12, 2011 I was offered to upgrade to the penthouse suite or whatever it's called on Destiny, for only another $1200. I only spent $1100 on the whole cruise. They got a no from me there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JdoggCruiser Posted October 12, 2011 #32 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Well, we got the upsell fairy call the other night. We are booked in a 8M. Empress deck aft extended balcony. The fairy said for $230 pp more we could get a grand suite on the upper deck. I know all the perks for it, but I guess whenever I hear the upsell fairy calling that it would be a deal. It's the same rate if I were to book it right now. No deal.... we love our extended aft's and we're not moving! :p Is it just me thinking that the upsell would be a deal? Is there anyone else out there that thought that? Not complaining..... just asking! :D P.S. 27 more days!! :D Your right Stef!!! How are you and Steve doing? We leave friday for Tampa on the Legend. Wish you and Co*kknocker were going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charleyann Posted October 13, 2011 #34 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Not sure if I made the right choice, but it is a balcony and we have never sailed this intinery, so I took it... We had OV cabin on the Glory cabin 2470 and went to 6207 ....Now 2470 is suppose to be a huge cabin , but I thought BALCONY ??? It was $20 per person for $40 . What do you think ?

Charleyann Posted October 13, 2011 #38 Share Posted October 13, 2011 What was sweet. Was when I booked there were no accessible cabins left so I took the bigger cabin. When I was offered upgrade to 8A, an acessible cabin had become available :) Charleyann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
