Plantation05 Posted February 26, 2023 #1 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Just wondering about deadlines for notification of bids on upgrades. I know what the info says but wondering if because my cruise leaves in 8 days and I haven't heard, perhaps the odds are against me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even as a Zenith I only get an invite about 15% of the time. They usually open about 21-60 days prior to cruise. Just go to link below and put in Reservation # and Last Name. If you booked with Big Box Store they do not participate Celebrity MoveUp – Upgrade Offer | Celebrity Cruises Edited February 26, 2023 by Jim_Iain 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted February 26, 2023 #3 Share Posted February 26, 2023 We did a move up on edge right after Covid we moved from sky suite to penthouse and was notified just two days before sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvcrusn Posted February 26, 2023 #4 Share Posted February 26, 2023 we got notification of a winning bid 2 days prior to embarkation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted February 26, 2023 #5 Share Posted February 26, 2023 If you submitted a bid you should be able to go back and see if is is still pending or declined. If it is pending and you can’t change or cancel the bid that is a good sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plantation05 Posted February 26, 2023 Author #6 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Thanks for all the responses. I have gone back 3 or for times a day to check. I bid on three different classes. As of right now, they all still say "Pending", and I am able to modify or cancel my bid still. I think it is the waiting that is killing me. I guess I am not a very patient person. I will keep you all posted. Thanks again. Keep your fingers crossed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have gone to the website you mentioned 2 or three times a day, to check on the status of my bids and they all say "Pending". Time will tell I guess. thanks for your info.

Check your credit card online. Ours showed a charge from X 2 days before we saw anything from X. In fact we noticed that the cabin number on our reservation changed and never received an email notification from X that our bid was accepted.

I had an alert that a charge was made on our credit card this morning. Unfortunately, it was my husband getting gas at Walmart. Darn, at least it wasn't a rejection, so there's still hope! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep waiting for my two cruises to open up, as there are so many suites left for the second cruise, the one I want to use for MoveUp. Right now, I could even stay in my same SS. My TA clled to see if I could work a deal, but the answer was “no deals.” Celebrity wants almost $16,000 for an 8 day cruise for two...Good luck to you!

At least if still pending you are still in the running? Have you checked at how many rooms are available? All mind still say pending but no availability of room currently.
