Seabourntraveller Posted July 13, 2012 #26 Share Posted July 13, 2012 At least on the 3 small sisters having a regular balcony cabin just means you can get a little fresh air without having to walk somewhere. The "romeo & Juliet" type balconies never made any sense to me. HAL tried them on a couple of ships and had lots of trouble filling them at the price they were asking. Have a great next cruise. you mean the "Lanai Cabins" on HAL whereby you had to hop over a sofa to get to the balcony door?:eek::rolleyes::eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wwinfl91 Posted July 15, 2012 Author #28 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Those are the ones. They keep adding benefits to fill them IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seabourntraveller Posted July 17, 2012 #29 Share Posted July 17, 2012 FYI they have put this cruise up for sale yet again today trying to fill it. Looks like not a lot of people took those paid upgrades with tons of larger Suites still available.:eek:;):eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure they will fil that ship fully before you sail on July 27th. What they are trying to do now is selling CAT OS and OB as GTY's and if need be will move people up into Owner Suites/Classic Suites (complimentary if no one buys the upsells).

wwinfl91 Posted July 24, 2012 Author #46 Share Posted July 24, 2012 As far as I know once you have made final payment, price drops don't help you. We also booked when it dropped the first time. We considered waiting it out but given the cruise sails this Friday it sure doesn't leave much time to arrange flights to get there and then afterwards get home.

They will on occasion accomodate you as a complimentary upgrade to the cabin category that you overpaid. So if you bought a CAT A for example and now the price of an A3 is the same price they would honour that and put you in the CAT A3. Getting OBC out of them is a little more tricky and harder IMO.
