Royal Up bid accepted 47 days out?

[RRTcruiser]

Sailing on Odyssey of the seas Nov 19th 2023, placed a bid for both Grand suite and Junior Suite 2 days ago and got an email that we were awarded a Junior suite, new invoice and new room number 47 days out. Been following this cruise and it’s been looking almost completely booked months ago. Have won and lost Royal up bids before but the furthest out from actual cruise date was like a week. FYI, the bid was NOT that substantial. Hoping that this was not a glitch of some kind as the room location is awesome

Congratulations.

Excellent to hear. I’ve been waiting on pins and needles hoping our owners suite bid gets accepted for our Nov cruise. You’ve given me hope

Congrats.  Not sure why there is reason to doubt it.  You have the new invoice with new room number.  Enjoy.

I'm guessing they wanted your old cabin location for another cruiser that really wanted to be next to another cruiser in your old location. (They wanted to be  close together, maybe a family with younger children or something.)
