BoxersMom Posted January 10, 2016 #1 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Help, I leave on the Vision of the Seas on Monday Jan 11th and just signed into my reservation an hour ago and found out that they "upgraded" me to a JS but not an AFT JS. I booked my Aft Balcony nearly 2 years ago, and it was still on my reservation on Friday. Now, Saturday night at 10:00 it's gone!! I plan to call C & A first thing tomorrow AM. Any ideas???

Ken at the beach Posted January 10, 2016 #2 Share Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) Did you have your profile set to "do not upgrade"? Hopefully your cabin has not already been given to someone else. Instead of waiting until morning I would try calling the regular line that's open 24 hours. Edited January 10, 2016 by Ourusualbeach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCWalton1 Posted January 10, 2016 #3 Share Posted January 10, 2016 yes, do not wait as your chances are already slim of getting it back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6rugrats Posted January 10, 2016 #6 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I don't know, but usually you can find this type of thing by googling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words, you would rather have a 195 sq ft cabin with a shower and single points on the aft with a large balcony than a junior suite of 281 square feet with a bathtub and a decent size balcony and double points? IMO, the balcony isn't worth it, if they are giving you the JS for nothing. But I guess that you feel differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoxersMom Posted January 10, 2016 Author #10 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Yes, we LOVE the Aft Balcony cabins and have booked early many times to be sure to get one. This was my significant birthday and 20th wedding anniversary cruise and I really was excited to have my Aft balcony to celebrate in. Now I can waste my Sunday morning calling and begging to get back what has been mine for 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that I know who got your balcony cabin. What I DON'T know is whose JS you got. ;) I decided to check my reservation tonight after reading these post about possible upgrades. I was shocked to see that I have been upgraded from an inside to a balcony cabin on my cruise leaving Monday 1/11 on Independence. This is my first upgrade. I'm almost a diamond+ so I kept hoping that one day the upgrade fairy would pay me a visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gig103 Posted January 10, 2016 #13 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Crud, RCCL can do that? My FIL booked a balcony cabin because it was near the elevators and he can't walk very well. But it's the one that's adjacent to the RS and now I'm afraid some family will want it and bump him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

138east Posted January 10, 2016 #15 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Sometimes even having "do not upgrade" marked doesn't work. I was gratuitously "upgraded" to an OV in Oct on the Jewel from an oversized inside that I had specifically selected 18 months earlier. Fortunately I got an email from RCL and was able to call C&A immediately. I got my cabin back within an hour and the rep said that the person doing the upgrades never checked to see if I had "do not upgrade" on my reservation! For me moving across the hall and getting a wndow just wasn't worth losing the extra 40 sq ft in the oversized cabin on a 15 day cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh dear, I am booked at a corner AFT Radiance balcony. Long anticipating that I might get upgraded to non AFT JS like what happened to the OP, I've set my upgrade preferences to no upgrade as early as last year. So in case I got upgraded even if I have set my preference to no upgrade, then I might demand for more compensation if that happens and my original room is no longer avail, as it will be really their fault for not checking the upgrade preferences.

You don't get the preference until AFTER your first cruise. Until you've actually cruised, you're not *technically* a C&A member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LMaxwell Posted January 10, 2016 #23 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I was debating if I should just pick on OP and discredit them for wanting the cabin they booked:rolleyes::rolleyes: but it's easier to just help them.

IMO, the balcony isn't worth it, if they are giving you the JS for nothing. But I guess that you feel differently. It's funny the conflicting info FROM RC. We were upgraded to a royal family suite BUT RC said we would NOT get double points nor all of the suite benefits such as concierge, etc., because we did not PAY for a suite. I think it just depends... To the OP, I hope you get this resolved to your liking. It's your vacation, and I hope you find the cabin (or return to it) that makes you happy. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
