*Mach* Posted January 25, 2012 #2 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Carnival called me asking if I would like to upgrade to a suite...It comes with VIP status...Is this worth another 300 bucks per person??? Is it really worth it not to stand in the long lines??? $600 for an Ocean Suite, I'm guessin'? Is the cruise a seven day? Regardless, that's a bunch of money... in fact, that could be another cruise in an inside cabin!!! I'd pass... ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it really worth it not to stand in the long lines??? Based on the limited amount of information (no ship, no cabin, no date, who is going, etc) I say YES, suites are much nicer and well worth the extra money.

Chmie Posted January 25, 2012 #4 Share Posted January 25, 2012 That decision depends on your individual circumstances ( ie. budget ). If my wife & I had an inside cabin for a 7 day cruise and could upgrade to a suite for $600, we would take it. Of course that's because we're partial to the larger suite in the first place. Don't do it to save time in a line when checking in. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted January 25, 2012 #5 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Unless you care about the extra space and bathtub, such as you have a small child, I'd pass. But we dont know if its a grand suite or what.. seems a pretty high price to upgrade. I already get VIP which is nice, but I would not pay anything for it.

robin13 Posted January 25, 2012 #6 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Funny thing is that on our Magic Med cruise last October we were in an OS and had priority boarding. I was so excited about that until my DH pointed out that the non VIP's were boarding ahead of us. Seems that there were so many VIPs on the ship that we had to wait our turn. So please don't spend the extra $$ just for priority boarding but do spend it on the extra room size if that is what is important to you. The Ocean Suites are big and really made our cruise special.

Sh1035 Posted January 25, 2012 #7 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Agree the VIP check in only provides a place to sit and wait these days. I regret spending more for a suite once then for a balcony. Only neat thing was being on the top of the ship and a great location. But was not worth 400 a day upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanner1449 Posted January 25, 2012 Author #8 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Well We are on The Legend sailing 2-26-2012...We are already in an outside room with a balcony..I just don't see spending the extra money for a bigger room that we are barely gonna spend anytime in...

Peg_S Posted January 25, 2012 #10 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Get to the port at 10-10:30 and miss the long lines for free. Have a great cruise! Peg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krazy4kruisin Posted January 25, 2012 #11 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Save your money for the next cruise! I would much rather go on 2 cruises than 1.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murry1 Posted January 25, 2012 #12 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I was offered this deal a couple years ago. We did it and loved it. It is alot cheaper than paying the full suite price. Go for it just to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
