Lady_Gamecock Posted October 18, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I keep revisiting RCCL's website and watch the fares drop for my upcoming cruise after final payment. WHY do I do that to myself?? :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havingfun2010 Posted October 18, 2016 #2 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I keep revisiting RCCL's website and watch the fares drop for my upcoming cruise after final payment. WHY do I do that to myself?? :cool: I did that, and got an upgrade to a large balcony. Almost same price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reedl Posted October 18, 2016 #3 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I keep revisiting RCCL's website and watch the fares drop for my upcoming cruise after final payment. WHY do I do that to myself?? :cool: Because if you see a lower price, you can upgrade to a better cabin. Also it gives you something to do while you are waiting for the cruise.

bouhunter Posted October 18, 2016 #4 Share Posted October 18, 2016 We just did that Sunday. Upgraded from a promenade cabin to a balcony guarantee at no cost. Received our room assignment this morning:) The promenade would have been our first non-balcony cabin and we were looking forward to something unique. But for zero cost increase we'll take a balcony:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimAOk1945 Posted October 18, 2016 #5 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I do that. Oh well, at least we are going on a cruise!!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedw Posted October 19, 2016 #6 Share Posted October 19, 2016 So after final payment they will let you upgrade at the current price? This will be our first time I'm ROyal and I was aware of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chanat Posted October 19, 2016 #7 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I check it everyday or so. Hoping to upgrade our inside cabin on Allure, in Dec, to at least an ocean view. Have had balcony cabin for at least last 10 cruises but going back to inside because we are paying for a lot of family members to sail with us this time as a Christmas present.

sherlynn Posted October 19, 2016 #8 Share Posted October 19, 2016 So after final payment they will let you upgrade at the current price? This will be our first time I'm ROyal and I was aware of this. Yup.....we also upgraded after final payment from an inside to a balcony! The balcony cabins were priced $9 less than my original inside! I too, scour the website after final pymnt and drive myself crazy.....but this time it paid off! I checked again a couple days after making the change to the balcony and the balcony prices had gone back up higher than insides so sometimes it does pay to peek! [emoji4]. Enjoy your cruise!

Lady_Gamecock Posted October 19, 2016 Author #9 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Sooooo........ I ended up calling up our TA and upgraded to a D2 Balcony for $73 additional dollars. Actually, all four of us played the Guarantee Lottery and all four of us are next to one another, just like it was when I booked our INSIDE cabins. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted October 20, 2016 #10 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I thought you were going to say that you call the ship a boat. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siora7777 Posted October 20, 2016 #11 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I do it too. I always check to see if I can upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tatt2ed Posted October 20, 2016 #12 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Best way for me to avoid this was to book the harmony. Our fares went up over $500. I keep checking for that miraculous price drop tho, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreadpirate3 Posted October 20, 2016 #13 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I do the same, every time. Only difference this time is I'm booking my February cruise as a last minute one in mid-January, so it will be whatever is available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debshomespun Posted October 20, 2016 #14 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I continue to check pricing after final payment. ..hoping for a chance to upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The JS Guaranty is cheaper than the D2 I have now. The funny thing is, there's only 1 JS left so you know exactly which one you're going to get. Of course, there's many times the fares never drop to what I paid, take the good with the bad. I think it even out, mostly.
