Upgrade timeframe

[oracer]

I have a cruise that is 49 days from sail date. Is it 45 days when I should start to see the site in which I can bid for an upgrade. I went through NCL directly to purchase so I should get the ability to do this.

Not everybody gets the offer.  Have you logged into your account lately?  Have you looked for "Upgrade Offer" emails (which looks like below:)

From: Norwegian Communications Center

Subject: Let’s Get You Upgraded

Right, I was able to bid just after I made final payment. I'm not sure the timing is the same for everyone though.

Bid offers are sent shortly after final payment due date - so if you just booked offers should come shortly.

You can use following link to check your reservation for upgrade eligibility

 

https://upgrade.plusgrade.com/offer/NCL/

 

Link works for me although I never received an email (booked direct with NCL).

Crap, says no space available. Cruise is not even close to selling out

I dont know if this helps, but if you log into your cruise summary  you might  see   " Lets get you upgraded"   (at least I can see it on my summary) in your messages.     I only got an email about 100 days out.  I know early right.  There also is no banner like the last few cruises I have been on.

I got upgrade offers on my recent Breakaway cruise and I booked through a TA.

If you are eligible, you should have seen it long ago. Try from your app by pushing the Upgrade button.

I tried and they told me to send an email to the upgrade team.  Ugh
