Upgrade/upsell, whatever the fairy, she called today!

Happy for you! Enjoy your cruise.

you folks are just like me. I check the website religiously to see if any suites open up in case I can upgrade. Fingers crossed!

Congrat's!! That upsell/uprade fairy sure is sneaky. What category were you in before the call, if you don't mind me asking?

 

Happy for you!

That's a much better deal than the one the Wicked Upsell Fairy offered me. She want $1000 to move from a D2 balcony to a JS. I declined.

D1 or D2, cabin #9312. I'm diamond but that had no bearing. Again, I asked. She said she had a list of reservations to call. She also said if someone didn't answer she would not leave a voicemail. She'd simply move to the next number.

Our one experience with the Upsell Fairy wasn't positive. We attribute this to her not being very smart.

 

The fairy called to offer a $400+ suite upgrade for a cruise that we were already on and more than halfway through. :eek:

Back in 2014, a few weeks before our Freedom cruise, a price watching website beeped on my phone at 2 am showing a huge price drop in JS's. We were in an E2. I called to upgrade to a JS for $100 total (7 day) and got the double points! Cathy

 

What website is that?

Thanks

We're not allowed to mention the websites on Cruise Critic. I see you like Golden retrievers. This is my granddaughter's new puppy❤

Is that a hint? I cant figure out website

For our upcoming Explorer 13N out of Sydney, received an email from C&A offering upgrade from our IC to OV. No $ were mentioned and had to call.

 

Called and we were able to upgrade to OV and could select from a small choice of available cabins for A$370 total, so that's like $14.20 each per day, so maybe $10 per day in greenbacks :)

 

Welcome to an OV :D Now I have done this without DW's knowledge & I am planning on keeping it a surprise - on this cruise it will be our 35th wedding anniversary!! My only concern it that I have to get her to sign again the docs, and there's a slight chance she might notice the different cabin, or maybe the luggage tags??

No, fish, not dogs.

 

P.S. It was meant as an answer to Caseythegr, but somehow the quote fell off.

google 'monitor cruise prices' and you will get a selection

 

cruisecritic also has this feature on the community homepage. Look at the taskbar on top for 'deals'/'price drop'
