49erfan007 Posted December 8, 2015 #3 Share Posted December 8, 2015 yes of course go for it! Which sailing? I am in a balcony on the 1/12 sailing, but would love to be upgraded to a suite....But I'm sure that won't happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weltek Posted December 8, 2015 #4 Share Posted December 8, 2015 $400 total or pp? If it's $400 total, and I could reasonably afford the cost, it would be a yes for me. I'd be willing to do a few less things (e.g., one less excursion, one less specialty restaurant, no spa treatments) to make up for that extra expenditure.

mrrobby Posted December 8, 2015 #7 Share Posted December 8, 2015 For $200 per person, I would do it in a heartbeat. You might get spoiled if you normally do an inside, but for that amount it will make your cruise that much more enjoyable. Good Luck Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plum24 Posted December 8, 2015 Author #8 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Thanks, everyone. We did it and are super-excited :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeeter195 Posted December 8, 2015 #9 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Great deal. The only problem with deck 11 is it will be noisy above in most of the mini suites. You are either below the pool area or worse the gym in the front. The only really quiet ones are the ones way up front on the starboard side. In the back you are below the pool area or garden buffet, both have lots of foot traffic. If you are a light sleeper it may(hopefully not) be a problem.

CSRAJ81 Posted December 8, 2015 #11 Share Posted December 8, 2015 We upgraded from and inside to a balcony on deck 10 and when the price dropped again we were upgraded to a mini suite on deck 11, our room # was 11554 and it was great, middle of ship, bigger room, bigger balcony and a bigger bathroom with a bathtub. Only problem i can see is the bathtub is very high to get in and out so if that's a problem then keep that in mind. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmc86 Posted December 8, 2015 #12 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Agree...definitely worth it....bathtub is high to step out of but that's about only downside...stayed in 11522 twice...no noise...loved it😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruzsnooze Posted December 9, 2015 #15 Share Posted December 9, 2015 I see your in Canada so was that US Dollars? With the exchange rate it's not really $400 for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare insidecabin Posted December 9, 2015 #16 Share Posted December 9, 2015 (edited) Always grab a quick look at the availability and pricing to see if the deal stacks up or if there might be a better option, The aft minis available they probably would have wanted much more. Looks like Minis never went under $1200pp Inside went from a low around $499pp to a high of around $1kpp so depends where you got in will make $200pp a decent deal to a very good one. (Guessing the 13Dec as that is the roll call you are on) Edited December 9, 2015 by insidecabin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were in 11054 in June and there was no noise, and we will be in 11060 in February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My TA was saying the room we got should be OK, it's an MB 11026, what do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
