Dreamcruise27 Posted September 26, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Hello, Concierge guarantee is now cheaper than the veranda guarantee that I have booked. I am past final payment. i know in the past I was able to change categories as long as it was more expensive. Is this still the case? Has anyone been able to change categories after final payment if the price is LOWER than your booked category? TIA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewespinme Posted September 26, 2023 #2 Share Posted September 26, 2023 (edited) Way back in 2014, celebrity let me upgrade to Aqua from Veranda for $20 a person on a transatlantic after final payment. It certainly would be worth the phone call in my mind. Edited September 26, 2023 by ewespinme 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually a lot more expensive. let us know how you make out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim_Iain Posted September 26, 2023 #4 Share Posted September 26, 2023 (edited) Years ago they denied my request to upgrade to a CS from SS when the CS was lower priced than a SS. My TA called the President and he overrode the Customer Service Team and allowed it but no reduction in fare I paid. I was ok with this. Generally the new room category has to be at least $1 higher than existing fare. Edited September 26, 2023 by Jim_Iain 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tierun Posted September 26, 2023 #5 Share Posted September 26, 2023 If they’re getting more money from you, then it’s ok. Otherwise, a big fat no! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrk2cruise Posted September 26, 2023 #6 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Also reported lately is that the GTY rates are new bookings only so I expect the answer will be no. I believe if it's a regular (pick your cabin) rate you should have better luck. But I think they are using GTY rates to avoid this situation.
