Yes/No: Yes If YES - Bidding Details: Cabin Category: Bid Offer: Royal Suite $1020 pp, Celebrity Suite $670 pp, Aquaclass Sky Suite $820 pp, Sunset Sky Suite $770 pp, Horizon Suite - no bid (minimum bid was $1500 pp), Sky Suite $580 pp Notification Date: April 2, 2024 Accepted / Rejected: REJECTED General Comments (offer details, etc.) The original MoveUp email listed the cabin categories and bidding ranges in the following order: Royal Suite $1000-5000 Celebrity Suite $550-2755 Aquaclass Sky Suite $800-4000 Sunset Sky Suite $750-3750 Horizon Suite $1500-7500 Sky Suite $300-1500 I have a feeling the ship sailed full. Lots of VIPs on board since it was a partial charter (Tampa Bay Buccaneers Fan Cruise) and a Celebrity Cruises corporate presence including Laura Hodges Bethge. Not sure if these factors contributed to a lack of availability in The Retreat. Or maybe weak bids are not given consideration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bids were very low, I kept them at a minimum and the amounts for me were within budget, even if they would be doubled. It felt weird though, that they only took my single bid. if I had known I would have gone higher on a suite bid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
