Rare KKB Posted November 8, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 8, 2023 All but one say "expired" & it says "pending" I assume this means we got the bid for that room, but does it usually take this long to go through? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMediator Posted November 8, 2023 #2 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Hi this happened to me and eventually I got upgrade! Sounds good! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Random Cruizer Posted November 8, 2023 #3 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Mine have always been pending until a couple days before. I got one and lost one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lydnsyd Posted November 8, 2023 #4 Share Posted November 8, 2023 My bid was pending right up to a week before the cruise - then 2 days before we set sail we had an email confirming our bid wasn't successful 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim_Iain Posted November 8, 2023 #5 Share Posted November 8, 2023 I've had both happen. Celebrity will continue to try to sell rooms until the last minute. If someone pays for the upgrade as oppose to bidding they will get the room. I have alerts set on my phone and usually the first clue I had that I won is when the credit card is charged. It may take a couple hours before I get the notification. I have also had a bid show pending and other expired and then at last minute advised I had not won. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody14 Posted November 8, 2023 #6 Share Posted November 8, 2023 you still have a chance when it is pending all the way up to 48 hours before departure. if it is expired, or rejected usually it is because you would have no chance so they are being fair and telling you, probably hoping you will do upgraded bids if offered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danakane Posted November 8, 2023 #7 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Hi there! I’m also on a Dec 1st cruise on the Beyond. Three of my bids went expired with one locked on pending on Friday. Many say it can be a good sign but there’s really no guarantee until we (hopefully!) get that approval email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you check the status of your bid? EDIT: I figured it out. I have 2 offers pending and our cruise is Nov. 26. Both offers show "strong" on the meter but there are no rooms in either categories showing as available...so I'm not counting on either offer being accepted.

I hope you get the room...but you probably won't know for sure up until 48 hours before departure...as I read it on the bidding site. Good luck!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely unable to do another bid; when I go to my reservation & click on the Upgrade box, nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you happen to have the original e-mail sent to you Re. bidding? That's how I placed my bid as it never did show in my cruise planner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happened to me a week before I got the upgrade. It was locked and could not be modified and showed pending until I got charged and then eventually and email. When it was locked, it also showed that upgrades were no longer available for the sailing (which is in 3 weeks). But I understand many others are still pending. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
