Have anyone ever received a bigger upgrade?


Recommended Posts

LOL- I hope not either. One of my husband's good friends has a father who's an officer for LPD- Mr. Thompson. I can't think of his 1st name, but I know they live closer to Hallsville.

I was asking about Greg because I remember him referring to a "Terry" that worked at GSMC. Greg is a nurse that works in the OR at GSMC and now at LRMC, too.

Hope you guys have fun on the Elation and good luck with the upgrades icon_biggrin.gif

Last spring break we booked our second cruise, but this time with 3 kids. We knew we would have to be careful with the money so we booked an inside cabin. I saw prices dropping and called our TA. We were upgraded to a balcony and received a $450 ship credit. The kids thought it was Christmas. I'll keep my fingers crossed for our cruise next March on the Conquest.

This is kind of a strange upgrade.We had booked the 4 day Fantasy, 4a gar. We got a call about a month before the cruise saying our cruise had been overbooked.They wondered if we would mind sailing the Pride-7 day Southern Car. I asked how much more that would be and they said"our mistake,our nickle". They even gave us a shipboard credit to offset the airline ticket change cost($30.00 a piece) .We ended up on the empress deck in an outside cabin. Now that is an upgrade.The entire cruise cost $735.00 for the 3 of us. Thats my best deal. Mariann

Mariann, that is probably the best "upgrade" yet! A 4-day to a 7-day cruise for 3, plus a cabin upgrade, all for for $735. I could handle that type of "mistake" by Carnival.

 

jnnifer01: "Mr. Thompson" would be John. He is a good friend and know his sons, Michael & Adam. Told him about your post and he knew exactly who you were from your occupations.

My travel buddy and I received an upgrade on our second cruise. It wasn't as great as yours, but it was from a lowly inside to the top veranda ( not a suite). Well just as you said that they got some of your loyalty... they have ours. I've sailed other lines, but I come back and I find it harder now to take the lowly inside... Nancy

This is my husband's and my anniversary and honeymoon we never had. We are 8A guarantee--found out throught the "method" that we are upgraded to 8B--since it is my husband's first cruise I hope the upgrade fairy is that kind--what a great honeymoon it would be in a suite!!!!!

 

 

What is "THE METHOD"?
