Working 2 Cruise Posted March 28, 2015 #7 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Just to clarify, it's an upsell offer, not an upgrade as upgrades are free... but yes, it's a great deal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timtrek Posted March 28, 2015 #9 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Is an upgrade offer of $79 per person from a oceanview to a balcony for a 7 night cruise a good deal? A great deal. I am always on pins and needles waiting for that upgrade email. I upgraded from a mini-suite to a full suite on my upcoming coastal for 159.00 pp and am very excited! Have a great cruise!

cruzsnooze Posted March 28, 2015 #10 Share Posted March 28, 2015 It's a good deal if you want a balcony cabin, if you don't want a balcony then it's not well spent money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shmoo here Posted March 28, 2015 Author #11 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Just to clarify, it's an upsell offer, not an upgrade as upgrades are free... but yes, it's a great deal! Yeah, I know. But the e-mail from Princess said "upgrade", so that's what I went with. :D Thanks, everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribill Posted March 28, 2015 #12 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Yeah, I know. But the e-mail from Princess said "upgrade", so that's what I went with. :D It is an upgrade. Just a paid one, not a free one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorset Cruiser Posted March 28, 2015 #13 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Wish we could get one - 32 cruises with various lines and Elite with Princess and we have never had a sniff at an upgrade or upsell 😭 Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elite with Princess and never an upsell or upgrade. Nothing, nada. Maybe some day. Hope springs eternal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luv2gonow Posted March 28, 2015 #15 Share Posted March 28, 2015 I would just check that the location is not right under say the late night club or something. Happy cruising. Kerri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexEm Posted March 28, 2015 #16 Share Posted March 28, 2015 It helps to go over the deck plans for the ship in advance of talking with the "upsell fairy" at Princess--in fact, having them right in front of you when talking with her helps the most. That way you can possibly avoid cabins you don't want. We had an upsell offer on a 5 day CB cruise in October from interior to balcony. When the "fairy" got back to me by phone, she offered us a particular cabin, and I asked her if anything else was available, and were there any Caribe balconies? She said yes and gave us a Caribe balcony almost midship. Never hurts to ask and be polite about it. Of course, I would've taken almost any balcony cabin! We're Platinum and this was our first upsell offer, but we've had some free upgrades before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KruzPrincess Posted March 28, 2015 #17 Share Posted March 28, 2015 I'd snap it up even if it wasn't a great location, but I love my balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ar1950 Posted March 30, 2015 #19 Share Posted March 30, 2015 When I read the OP's first post I thought: "Hmm, must be a trick question...." I hope that they grabbed the offer. Upgrade or up-sell, either way, a great deal price-wise. At $79.00 that is about $11.00 per person per day.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, when we cruise, we generally get oceanview rooms. The offer was emailed on Friday. And, unfortunately, not read until after business hours. We called and left a voice mail (email says they're only open M-F) and that voice mails are returned in the order received. So we have to wait until tomorrow to find out what's available. Fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shmoo here Posted April 3, 2015 Author #22 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Well, after a couple of days playing phone tag with the Princess reservation person, it's done! We're now in a balcony room(near the back of the ship). I wish I was more ready for this cruise.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
