cruiseguy1016 Posted December 13, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 13, 2022 We have a cruise booked for Feb. 26th. I am considering bidding for an upgraded cabin. How soon does the bid process open before the cruise departs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser_1977 Posted December 13, 2022 #2 Share Posted December 13, 2022 (edited) Just go to https://www.royalcaribbean.com/booked/cruise-room-upgrade Input your last name and reservation number. If you're eligible the selections will appear. You should also get an email regarding your eligibility with the link. Not everyone will be eligible.

Someone suggested it might be too early for my sailing which is why I asked. I will not get the email because I have opted out of their promotional emails, I was getting waaay too many.

Cruiser_1977 Posted December 13, 2022 #4 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Ahh, well in my limited experience and from reading here, it appears there is no hard and fast rule. I'd just check the link every week or so. Good Luck 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no need to bid when it opens - win decisions are rarely taken more than 30 days out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephPS79 Posted December 13, 2022 #8 Share Posted December 13, 2022 On my past 3 cruises, I have gotten the email and been able to bid 90 days prior to my sailing. Agreed there is no urgency to bid, but I liked knowing what it would cost for the bids. I didn't win any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How soon does the bid process open before the cruise departs? We're on the Harmony Feb 26th and our bidding opened up a couple weeks ago. I've yet to figure out how they determine when to open it up as it's been different on every cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
