Mentions TA offer not combinable with O Labor Day Upgrade Sale, or OCCAP. Has anyone received brochure, or other notice ? @FetaCheese Hello friend. Here is what I remember from last year. I booked my cruise with the Labor Day 4 category upgrade. I am not saying or have I heard the same sale will happen this year to be clear. At the time, my TA large agency had a special where they paid your gratuities. However, this sale made that perk (gratuities) not allowed. I was a bit bummed but understood. It did allow my American Express Platinum Perks to be valid though. Months later, the Extraordinary Sales Event happened and it WAS combinable with the Four Category Upgrade Promotion. I thought that I won the lottery to "Double Dip" promotions. Then I was informed my American Express Platinum Perks were no not valid. Fair trade with all things considered. Since I booked my cruise last September, I have not gotten a paper brochure. So that relates to your situation. Cruise well and enjoy every moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEFIowa Posted August 29, 2023 #13 Share Posted August 29, 2023 And the sales keep flowing freely. Is this the 5th or 6th major sale so far in 2023? Hope our Baltic cruises are on it. There was no 2023 Presidents' Day sale because they were running something else (was that the 20th Anniversary Sale?). I forget if there was the 2023 Memorial Day sale either. A continuous blur of sale after sale in 2023. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Presidents', Memorial and Labor Day cabin-upgrade sales have been selective in the past, not covering "all" cruises in a given CY. Are you saying there are just 7 cruises on this sale?

MEFIowa Posted August 29, 2023 #16 Share Posted August 29, 2023 I would assume it can only start on September 1st at the earliest, since the current ongoing "Summer Sale" ends 8/31/203. Summer Sale *Summer Sale expires 8/31/23, applies to select categories on select voyages, subject to availability and capacity controlled. Ask for VF special."

Cape Hernlopen Posted August 29, 2023 #19 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Dear Fellow Cruisers: We booked a May 18, 2024 Marina cruise under the "summer sale" in June. The current four category upgrade sale is $1,000 per person more for a Veranda 4,5 or 6. We were not permitted to use our $200 Gift Certificate from our just completed cruise.

flyer79 Posted August 29, 2023 #21 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Sorry if this a newbie question everyone else already knows. What does 4 category upgrade mean? Secondly, I will be onboard on Labor Day. Will the onboard guy have all the current deals compared to my TA? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the deals are as they are. Keeping in mind there are G-F-C-B-A staterooms cabins and then the PH and higher suites. And yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyer79 Posted August 29, 2023 #23 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Thx! So is A a category or is A1-A4 considered 4 different categories? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
