jamesnmphs Posted July 13, 2017 #28 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Is it necessary to book through O to get offers? No. Oceania makes there offers available to everyone. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janecambridge Posted July 13, 2017 #29 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Is it necessary to book through O to get offers? Our upsell was through our agent on our first cruise with Oceania..Some people tell their agents what they want and don't want should an upsell be offered,(even stating a cut off point for the extra cost) so the response is immediate.I have told my agent that I do not want an upsell to Vista suite from Oceania,even if it's free.But an owners suite...free...is different but doubt that will happen.😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colombiangirl Posted July 13, 2017 #32 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I'm hoping that we get an upsell offer to a Vista Suite. We are currently in a PH2. There seems to be only one left. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare ORV Posted August 5, 2017 #36 Share Posted August 5, 2017 There is no set time - depends on how well (or how poorly) the sailing is selling.Please note - upgrades and upsells are not interchangeable terms. Upgrades are very rare - upsells much more common. While I agree that is the the way we use the terms here, Oceania doesn't use them the same way. Here is a quote from an email I got the other day. As you can see what we refer to as an upsell they are referring to as an upgrade. " Upgrade to Deluxe Ocean View! We would like to present a limited time opportunity to experience the added luxury of an accommodations upgrade at a special price for your booking referenced above.

bitob Posted August 5, 2017 #39 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Agree. Especially because many cruise lines offer free upgrades with some frequency so when people hear the word upgrade on oceania they assume it is free Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True Upgrade for a fee VS free upgrade both can happen on O ;) Just like people booking a GTY when they can choose a cabin # they book hoping to get a better cabin cat like other lines Sometimes it works on O sometimes not ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
