Upgrade Fairy- Interior to OV?

[CruiseLvr1215]

So excited- I got an email from the upgrade fairy!! We got offered an oceanview on Deck 2 for $60 more. We currently have an interior (4H) on the Lido deck.

 

I'm a little torn on whether or not to take it. The price is good but our current location (Lido) is pretty awesome. I've never had anything but interior. Is oceanview worth it? Pros-cons?

I would stick with the interior on Lido vs moving to an OV

I'd take the upgrade if it's $60 total and not pp. Lido is only as far away as the elevator. BUT it may be a good idea to see where the new cabin would be (forward, mid or aft) check out the location. Personally I like OV better than balcony since you won't have to deal with balcony problems. (neighbors)

Yep, it is $60 more total. We'd be moving from a 4H to a 6C. It is midship, as was our interior.

Hate to disappoint you, but that wasn't the upgrade fairy. That was the upsell fairy. Big difference.

I would keep the interior room on the Lido deck for sure! Love the Lido deck rooms! But that is MHO.

I think people are aware of the difference by now since this distinction is made every time a person uses the term upgrade, which is perfectly acceptable. Sorry to be petty here, but this just really bugs me.

 

Anyway, for $60 I think the OV is totally worth it. I love how natural light makes the cabins feel so much more spacious. But if being on lido is important, then that is something to consider.

I would stay on Lido, it's only a few steps to the actual ocean view (and breeze and salt smell) versus elevator or stairs the entire cruise. I prefer an interior because it's the one place I don't ever need an eye mask to sleep. Nice and DARK!

I would stay on Lido.

Lido Deck for sure, so nice not to have to deal with elevators in morning to go to breakfast and/or pool area. If I can't do a Balcony I always try to do the Inside Cabins on the highest deck possible. It is really up to you to decide if you want that light coming into cabin vs being able to walk out on your deck and have it.

If 7 or 8 days might upgrade but for shorter cruise absolutely not

I think for $60 upgrading to an Ocean View would be a nice experience. I will be honest and say that I have never really had a true interior cabin (usually portholes and oceanviews) but I know that it has always been nice to be able to stare out the window and watch the water go by underneath me :D

Keep the room on the Lido!

[nwcruiselover]

I would definitely take the upsell to the OV cabin. The natural light and the ability to look out at the ocean right from your cabin trumps being on the lido deck IMHO.

Without knowing which ship this is on.. some of the newer ships the OV is bigger, might sway you.

 

Id rather stay on Lido myself though.

[Sh1035]

Agree lido is always my deck if possible. Also, you have the secret deck up front and ice cream out back.

 

Ask them if any upgrades available on the lido deck?

[momto2inkc]

I'd keep the interior on Lido!

[readytotravel44]

Stay on Lido IMHO.

[RjayB]

I would definitely take the upsell offer to the OV...just be prepared to never be satisfied with an inside cabin again :)

I would stay on lido.
