Does Accepting an Upgrade Offer Make it More Likely You'll Receive Future Offers?

[bobomonkeyrage]

Title sums up the main question, though I guess the next part would be: if yes, are those offers worse because they assume you're inclined to accept?

No.

Not sure how anyone would know. Upgrade policies are confidential, and have the most to do with the need to fill the ship, not anything else.

Most of the upgrade offers I have received have been rack rate or more than I paid- for the first round. When subsequent offers have come, they have decreased until either I accepted or they stopped ( probably someone else accepted.)

A company with sophisticated IT and revenue maximization systems would definitely do this.  I just don't think HAL has their act together that well (which isn't a bad thing for us passengers in this case).

I think it's simply a matter of supply and demand.

We got an e-mail offer, which we accepted, in 2014. None since, but that may be because I have become much more proactive AND started working with a PCC, marking my very carefully selected bookings NO UPGRADE. 

 

Supposedly that marking only means no automatic upgrades, but whatever, no offers since then.

Only once has that happened to me.  Way back in 2010.  I received an upsell an about a week before the sailing from an OV to verandah (which I took).  The next day I received an upsell from a verandah to a Signature Suite which I did not take.   That was very unusual.

 

since then I have received several upsell offers sometime I take them and sometimes I don’t.

No. Each sailing is addressed in a vacuum.
