Dawnya00 Posted December 10, 2018 #1679 Share Posted December 10, 2018 I figured this would be the best board at ask this question. If a bid is won and it results in a Haven stay, how does the information below work out? This is taken from the NCL FAQ. I see the asterisk next to Suite and the corresponding clarification that the suite had to be booked at the Full Fare price, but I don't see what the details are for a Haven. Does anyone know if you would earn the additional Latitudes points if you win a Haven bid? Earn 1 additional point per night for booking in a Suite* or in The Haven. Earn 1 additional point per night when booking a Latitudes Rewards Insider Offer. *Full fare suites booked when reservation was originally made. Does not include mini-suites.

You should not receive the extra point per night if upgraded to the Haven via Upgrade Advantage, though we have received *some* anecdotal evidence of some people getting the extra point. It's possible those people were booked on a Latitudes Rewards sailing and just didn't realize where the extra point was coming from.

No, you will not get the suite/Haven points if you acquire the cabin from bidding. You must book the suite or pay for an upgrade to earn the extra points. Hope this helps.

oracer Posted December 10, 2018 #1683 Share Posted December 10, 2018 I want to verify that I am in the "waiting period". We have a cruise 38 days out, I received the email and subsequent webpage to "Please bid on an upgrade offer". I went into the little slider thingy and put in one bid for a balcony and one bid for a Spa Balcony. In the Your Offers column, it now says "Review Your Offer" in both the balcony and Spa Balcony. I have not bid on an oceanview room. Should I do that? I really don't want an oceanview, because I thought you could only bid on 2 of them, not all three of them. Thanks for any help. I did move the slider on the Oceanview and it did open up the button to continue, just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oracer Posted December 10, 2018 #1684 Share Posted December 10, 2018 I just clicked on the "Review Your Offer" and it goes to another page is says "Pending" and has two buttons, either Cancel or Modify. I think that the offer is under review, just want to make sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you don't want an Oceanview, you shouldn't bid on it. It might affect your chances of winning a balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If/when your bid is being accepted, it will change to "processing" or if it is declined it will change to "expired." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to bid on the ocean view if you don't want to. But, you could, there is no maximum in the number of bids you can make. There is a rule about categories, but I believe if you can't bid on a category it would not even show that in the bid options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oracer Posted December 10, 2018 #1688 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Jamie and Hansolo, thanks for the replies. Sit and wait now!!!! Quick other question, if we win the bid to a Spa Balcony, that does allow us to go to the "Thermal Suite" without additional charge correct? My bid was based on what I would have to pay regardless to go to the Spa. Just checking!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JamieLogical Posted December 10, 2018 #1689 Share Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) Yes, the only difference between a Spa Balcony and a regular Balcony is location (close to the spa) and thermal suite spa passes for each guest.

I'm not sure if bidding versus the long ago upgrade phone in has changed the point system, but the 2 times I called in (before the bidding stuff started) and upgraded to a Haven, I received double points/Haven points.

JuliaSugarbaker Posted December 11, 2018 #1691 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Something seems off with my upgrade offers. Does it normally allow you to bid on categories that are below what you actually booked? It also has multiple minimum bids in the same categories/same types of rooms? For example same type of Haven room is either a minimum bid of $300, $500 or $750. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not really clear on what you mean about same haven categories having multiple minimum bids. Are the same categories appearing more than once on your bidding page and each listing has a different minimum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueenOfZoom Posted December 11, 2018 #1693 Share Posted December 11, 2018 It's been glitchy for me as well. Placed a bid for H9 and it shows excellent on the scale, go back to check and then it's in the poor range. Been back and forth like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRUELLA1114 Posted December 11, 2018 #1695 Share Posted December 11, 2018 I put in bids yesterday for upgrade but did not receive a confirmation email. Did I do something wrong ? When I go in to look at my bids they just offer the option to review. Doesn’t say pending or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same categories multiple times with different amounts to bid. It’s very odd. Yet in the inventory they show sold out except the 2 bedroom Haven suite.

That's weird, but I work in email and it's not unheard of. There could have been some kind of error in generating the mail, or it's possible that it got intercepted by your email provider as spam and filtered off. What's important is that your bids do show as pending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
