webteach Posted May 23, 2014 #1 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I guess if one stares at a cabin every day, somehow RCCL knows. Just got upgraded on Grandeur May 30 from D1 to JS 7650- our very favorite cabin on the ship. I looked at it constantly and wanted it so much. Ecstatic!

Great 2 B at Sea Posted May 23, 2014 #9 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Congratulations to both Webtech and Marion_Mom for getting JS upgrades! Enjoy your cabin and the cruise! Hope to someday be as fortunate as both of you are.....and if I'm not.....I will still be happy for all of my fellow cruisers who do get the upgrades! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webteach Posted May 23, 2014 Author #10 Share Posted May 23, 2014 (edited) Hey! I always wanted to meet you, Merion Mom. No Meet and Mingle but we'll be in Diamond or Concierge Lounge every night. I thought you got a JS when the sale was good? No? Well- now we are both set. Aft- right? Edited May 23, 2014 by webteach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webteach Posted May 23, 2014 Author #11 Share Posted May 23, 2014 May I ask how you had your upgrade preferences set on Royal's website? Just said go ahead and upgrade- no permissions, no qualifications. We had this cabin last summer-wondering if they saw that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted May 23, 2014 #12 Share Posted May 23, 2014 May I ask how you had your upgrade preferences set on Royal's website? Bob, *my* setting was: just give me the &%^$# upgrade! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merion_Mom Posted May 23, 2014 #15 Share Posted May 23, 2014 LOL I'll have to adjust my settings. D+ and not one upgrade yet:( I didn't start getting them until I retired and started cruising during non-school times. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kayla103 Posted May 23, 2014 #18 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I just went and checked mine. No such luck! But I think mine is a bit early. We don't sail until mid-June haha:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celly Posted May 23, 2014 #19 Share Posted May 23, 2014 LOL I'll have to adjust my settings. D+ and not one upgrade yet:( D+ with settings adjusted, 40+ cruises on Royal and never had one single upgrade so we have given up the hope that the upgrade fairy will ever visit us overseas......

webteach Posted May 23, 2014 Author #20 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Some years ago- before Diamond or Diamond Plus- I was upgraded to an owner's suite on some ship . I think this may have been karma for cruising with old mama and slightly demented brother. It was beautiful. Only downside was two people had to sleep together in one non-separating bed. I became even closer to my mom as we shared the wonderful queen-sized bed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harooni Posted May 23, 2014 #22 Share Posted May 23, 2014 very nice, i am assuming they upgrade the diamond plus and so on first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted May 23, 2014 #23 Share Posted May 23, 2014 very nice, i am assuming they upgrade the diamond plus and so on first? That's what is supposed to happen with C&A upgrades. Before C&A gets to upgrade people, the revenue dept. does their upgrades, and anything can happen with the revenue upgrades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken at the beach Posted May 23, 2014 #25 Share Posted May 23, 2014 sorry maybe dumb question but what is a revenue upgrade? Someone from the revenue dept. calls and offers you the chance to upgrade for a price. Usually a pretty good deal and a whole lot less than what it would cost to upgrade on the website. Not free but the next best thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
