romandog Posted February 26, 2015 #1 Share Posted February 26, 2015 For all of you that have booked a guarantee stateroom, for example a D8 ocean view balcony, have you always gotten the same category, or have you been upgraded to another category?

Clarea Posted February 26, 2015 #2 Share Posted February 26, 2015 We booked a "W" once (JS minimum) and got a GS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romandog Posted February 26, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Now., that is a real upgrade! Congrats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted February 26, 2015 #4 Share Posted February 26, 2015 ALL of our guarantees ( at least 10) have been in the same super category as the guarantee booked, no upgrade. That is, if I booked a balcony guarantee, I was given a balcony. Booked OV guarantee, and I was given an OV. I have on occasion not had the lowest accommodation in the category. If I booked a balcony guarantee, maybe I was given D rather than an E, but I don't consider that an upgrade. (I booked a balcony guarantee and that is what I got.) I read about those who book an interior guarantee and somehow end up in a balcony! Not in my experience. We never expect anything greater than what we booked in the guarantee, so we are never disappointed. M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare John&LaLa Posted February 26, 2015 #5 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Booked a suite guarantee pretty late and got an Aft JS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Babe Posted February 26, 2015 #6 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Was in a GS and the price dropped on the Owner Suites. Got upgraded for free! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daghis Posted February 26, 2015 #7 Share Posted February 26, 2015 On our Independence of the Seas cruise last year, they had a last-minute (about three days before sailing) availability of an X guarantee for only about $30 more than we paid for our Promenade cabin (after factoring in the balcony discount). So, we upgraded to the X and were immediately assigned to a lovely D2 cabin on the hump. The cabin was great as was its location, incredibly convenient to the aft elevator lobby.

cb at sea Posted February 26, 2015 #9 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Never, ever gotten a free upgrade!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Buddy's Mom Posted February 26, 2015 #10 Share Posted February 26, 2015 On the Quantum Transatlantic, we were upgraded from an inside guarantee to a balcony, D2. Hope I can find a deal like that on the Anthem. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaile Posted February 27, 2015 #11 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Sounds like a few others have been lucky. Both my last 2 W (suite) guarantees have been a JS. Great cabin, and happy with what we got but we always hope that a full suite upgrade may appear. Maybe next time.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LovesCruising Posted February 27, 2015 #12 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Never got a free upgrade - booked a W once in about 25 cruises - got a JS in the worst location possible. Ended up paying for a GS - it is what it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epinz300 Posted February 27, 2015 #13 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Me and my family went on Allure May of 2012. We booked two inside grnt rooms and ended up getting two boardwalk balcony rooms about 3 doors down from each other. Only time thats ever happened mostly because I dont trust id get that kind of upgrade again. so im quitting while ahead :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TravelerThom Posted February 27, 2015 #15 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Our only two upgrades: Legend Sep 2014 TransAtlantic Cat.Z inside GTY; got a D2 Balcony. Not a GTY but Dec 2009 Celebrity Xpedition in Galapagos booked one of only four XO (cheapest) cabins. Upon arrival at the boat was upgraded to an XS Xpedition Suite.
