Rare CruzerDeb Posted April 18, 2019 #1 Share Posted April 18, 2019 My first-ever upgrade email! Upgrade my balcony to a mini suite. I’d love to, but not for an extra $400. Worth it? Sailing on the Ruby Princess to Alaska. My balcony is on 12 and looks like there's a mini-suite available on 9; both cabins are forward. Thoughts?

JenRonn1104 Posted April 18, 2019 #2 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Is that an extra $400 per person or for the total upgrade. I love the extra room in the MiniSuite and we tend to book them most often but I wouldn't do $400 per person for it. If $200 per person, I would do it. Just my opinion. Enjoy your cruise. We love Alaska. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voljeep Posted April 18, 2019 #5 Share Posted April 18, 2019 good call unless you really wanted/needed the tub/shower combo - or the place to sit for the second person Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compozer Posted April 18, 2019 #6 Share Posted April 18, 2019 We like the extra space so I would take it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocklinmom Posted April 18, 2019 #7 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I think the $200pp price is well worth it for a minisuite, but that depends on your own preferences. Your balcony cabin is covered, the minisuites are uncovered. You would have a larger tub/shower combo vs. a small shower. You would have a sofa to sit on separately from the beds, and a second TV. We would jump on that upgrade, but it's what is important to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare oskidunker Posted April 18, 2019 #8 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Sounds like a good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PekingeseLady Posted April 18, 2019 #9 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I believe it is a club class. At least this morning they showed one mini available and it was CC. It's been sold out for a couple of days now. I would probably take it if it was. But I do like a covered balcony for Alaska, if the weather is wet.

waltd Posted April 18, 2019 #10 Share Posted April 18, 2019 For the upgrade price we would have also taken it. On a side note if either one of you have any sort of mobility issues stepping up into the shower/tub combo might be a problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm a solo so I'd pay the full $400 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
