ryarger Posted September 29, 2016 #2 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Have a chance to upgrade for $1000 each (2 of us) from an AFT deck 10 to Aft Suite deck 9. We are just a normal income couple celebrating our honeymoon...thinking the Haven space would be worth the extra $...thoughts??? Which ship? My answer would be yes for pretty much all of them, especially the larger ships with the dedicated Haven space and restaurant! We were spoiled with a non-Haven suite upgrade in 2014 on Pride of America and can't imagine cruising without the suite life any more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhea98 Posted September 29, 2016 #3 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I can say we just got an upsell email for $500/pp from spa mini to haven spa but declined. We thought about it. It was a great deal for a 13 transatlantic. There are so many more ways to spend that money. It's about what you want.

mom2tcdx2 Posted September 29, 2016 #4 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I could have done a 2BR Haven on our sailing for $2000 more, just a bit too much extra for me. Personally I would do it between $500-750 more. I have an upcoming 9 day cruise in February that was only $1400, taking that $2000 would allow me to take another cruise instead.

maggie1968 Posted September 29, 2016 Author #5 Share Posted September 29, 2016 It is the Breakaway, sailing Oct 23rd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggie1968 Posted September 29, 2016 Author #6 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Yes..I thought of that practicality of using it toward another cruise :). I definitely don't want to give up my AFT room and there is only one AFT Haven left....soooo conflicted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimAOk1945 Posted September 29, 2016 #7 Share Posted September 29, 2016 (edited) Yes, I would accept it. Although we haven't been on that cruise line, I have seen the reviews and pictures. We usually cruise in full suites and love it. It will make your cruise extraordinary. Go for it.

Rare ColeThornton Posted September 29, 2016 #10 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I wouldn't. You already have a very nice room and as another poster said that two grand would set you up nicely on yet another fun cruise. No, I wouldn't consider it. Just my two cents worth.

maggie1968 Posted September 29, 2016 Author #11 Share Posted September 29, 2016 (edited) Oh I think I would definitely do this one, the 500 spa upgrade....13 DAYS!!! Edited September 29, 2016 by maggie1968 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggie1968 Posted September 29, 2016 Author #12 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Thank you for your thoughts....$2000 is a lot of money...kinda got caught up in the whole HAVEN mystery :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mabones Posted September 29, 2016 #13 Share Posted September 29, 2016 An additional $2k seems over the top. I would try countering with $500 pp. You can use that extra by getting a Thermal Spa Pass & a few Couples Massages or some special Dinners.

If you really want to do this for your honeymoon...tell them you appreciate the offer, however at that rate, to expensive...you could afford...( whatever you're comfortable with)...$1000 for both or whatever works for you. Just a suggestion. Enjoy the cruise whatever your decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLH Arizona Posted September 29, 2016 #15 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I'd take it in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TifffanyD Posted September 29, 2016 #16 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I would say no. If it was a room in the haven complex or very near it then I wo uld say maybe... but 2k is a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggie1968 Posted September 29, 2016 Author #17 Share Posted September 29, 2016 They do have 2 br Villas available in the haven complex for 1000 each but I didn't want to give up the Aft aspect....so many things to consider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champagne123 Posted September 29, 2016 #18 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Nope. $2000 is another cruise. Save your $$$$. You already have a great cabin/AFT. HAPPY HONEYMOON. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mabones Posted September 29, 2016 #19 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Just use the extra for splurging on yourselves. How about having a fancy Limo for your Transfers between the Airport & Port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lov2sun Posted September 29, 2016 #22 Share Posted September 29, 2016 IMO $2k is a lot of money for that upgrade. The Haven is nice but I would rather have that cash to do other special things or buy something extravagant that will always remind you both of your honeymoon. Also keep in mind that on top of that $2k for the upgrade, you will have additional costs for service charges, butler and concierge tipping - so actually it is much more than $2k.

Rare All-ready2cruise Posted September 29, 2016 #23 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I'd say NO, not at that price, half maybe...$1000. It seems like they're playing, "make an offer" game but I wouldn't play it unless they reduce the price. Understanding it's your honeymoon (congratulations BTW) you can do a lot with that $2000.

spanishguy1970 Posted September 29, 2016 #24 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I agree with the above comment. 2000 seems high, i would make an offer and see what they come back with. You could use that money on other stuff that is more important specially for your honeymoon, Congratulations.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edawn Posted September 29, 2016 #25 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I wouldn't. I think I value the money more than I value what the haven offers. If money were no object, I'd just book it from the start. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
