Upgrading experience possible?

[dorts]

Currently booked under a fantastica balcony cabin which I am very happy with. Just curious if you can pay extra to upgrade to the aurea experience and of so how much if anyone has done this before? I like the idea of the Top 19 deck and bar and access to the thermal suite included.

You can pay for access to the Thermal Spa...it doesn't give you Top 19, though. A cruise-long pass is usually pretty cheap.

If it is before final payment, you may be able to call and rebook. On the cruise I chose, I believe it was about $450 more per person for Aurea. Another possibility is getting an offer to bid for an upgrade prior to sailing.

On bidding in upgrades, it's my understanding - based on the bids we've received - that you don't get the upgraded Experience, just the cabin. Exception being upgrading into YC...

Am I mistaken?

Correct, I forgot that pesky detail. Sorry 😐

We received offers to upgrade about three to four weeks before sailing. We were inside and they gave us three offers.

In the UK we have to cancel and rebook and lose the deposit.
