Rare Alphen Posted September 5, 2019 #1 Share Posted September 5, 2019 We have no experience in handling a paid upgrade offer, so, when you receive a paid upgrade offer for upgrade in cabin class, can you negotiate cabin number if you respond by phone?

DaveOKC Posted September 5, 2019 #3 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Yes, but be prepared before you call - know what you want (deck, area, category and even specific cabin numbers). You can sometimes get some information on what is available from your TA or online from HAL or travel websites (but the number they show as open is often limited - there may be more). And of course - RESPOND quickly to the offer, as they can go very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rucrazy Posted September 5, 2019 #4 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Yes you can! The times we have been offered the up sell, the agent at the cruise-line made us aware of all the staterooms that were available during our conversation over the phone. But please be aware sometimes there is no choice available, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
przyk Posted September 5, 2019 #5 Share Posted September 5, 2019 We were given a choice of about 10 cabins for our recent upgrade on the Westerdam. We had booked a guarantee room, so one of the final considerations to buy the upgrade was so we would have our cabin selected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayfairers Posted September 5, 2019 #6 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Yes, we’ve never taken the upgrade but have seriously considered it and always have had a choice on cabins. Even when we didn’t like the choices offered when we explained why we were offered additional cabins. I’m sure that isn’t always the case though.

Rare Mary229 Posted September 5, 2019 #9 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I have always been given the cabin numbers when the offer is made, sometimes I have to ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
