CRU1Z1N Posted July 17, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 17, 2014 For $40 we could upgrade from our cove balcony on the main deck (under guest services) to panorama deck. We declined. I like our location and it will be the first time in a cove balcony This is for our sailing on the dream Sept 7.

WLHyatt Posted July 17, 2014 #2 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Having done Panorama deck balconies and a cove balcony near where yours is, I'd do the cove every time. The only way I would upgrade from that cove is if they were offering a spa balcony for that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snc_cam Posted July 17, 2014 #3 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I just got my first one too... going from an Inside to OV... I'm happy with my inside on Deck 7 rather than the OV on Deck 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TxChick Posted July 17, 2014 #6 Share Posted July 17, 2014 We got a call today to upgrade to a handicap grand suite for $400 from a balcony on lido. We took it because we thought we'd never get to stay in one and frankly, I was so excited because I'd never gotten the call. We've decided to bring our nephew because it's the only way 4 of us would ever fit in a room comfortably. I think it was a good deal for us.

spunkie4 Posted July 18, 2014 #7 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Received an e-mail today and took the offer. We changed from a balcony on deck six to a mid-ship balcony on deck eight. Shirley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winddawn Posted July 18, 2014 #8 Share Posted July 18, 2014 I got an email today too from the upsell fairy offering me an Empress deck mid-ship or forward suite for $530. I am currently booked in an 8E balcony on Lido deck on Freedom in September. I passed on the offer. I looked online and it would have been a savings of about $130 over the current advertised price. I didn't think it was a very good deal and I wasn't eager to give up my Lido balcony cabin to move down a couple decks. That upsell fairy sure was busy today! Oddly enough I have received many upsell phone calls in the past, but this was the first time I ever received the offer via email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it posible we may get a call or email to upgrade or is that only for those who book direct through Carnival? I have read others' posts on this board that they booked through a TA and received an upsell offer. I also receive upsell offers when booked as a solo. Carnival called me the day before my cruise last March and gave me a free upgrade from inside to oceanview. That was my first ever free upgrade in 23 Carnival cruises.
