We were offered an AQ 1 cabin at the lower AQ 2 price, which we accepted. But when I checked the location it was under a noisy area... I called back and got an A2 in a quieter spot. Thus my warning to check the location.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sayok Posted July 26 #28 Share Posted July 26 After reading this thread I called on a reservation that I made (online) 2 weeks ago to inquire about the upgrade related to my status as Elite. The person was very helpful and explained that since I'm booked in a C1, the "perk" would be to get it at the C2 price; however, when she looked closer she said the price had gone up during the time since I booked, and that the C2 was now more expensive than the C1 I have. I asked, for future cruises, how to secure the upgrade/discount, and she said soon after making the reservation online (like within 24 hours or so) I need to call to have it repriced. Lesson learned!

I make the request at the time of making the reservation either on the ship or via phone. If you are making the reservation online, then call asap.

According to the chart, the answer to your question should be "yes". Guessing this has no impact on Guaranteed cabins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time asked about the one category upgrade to a deluxe inside Di, he said it doesn't qualify on E class ships. After reading various posts I called Celebrity they said yes it does and upgraded me no charge. A few days ago made final payment on an October cruise mentioned the upgrade to my CVP he said I was lucky to get that as no it does not qualify. So now I'm confused was thinking of sending him the chart but left it alone. Surprised he doesn't know as been with the company for years and very knowledgeable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since all of the CC upgrades occur within a guaranteed category (v2 to V1), this perk is not exercisable on a guaranteed booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why the "changes to loyalty" flyer is important to have because you can use Celebrity's own documentation to substantiate your claim. The flyer is relatively recent and is still showing on Celebrity's trade website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had I not read the posts on this board I'd be none the wiser and still in an inside cabin. He's been with Celebrity many years, must be good as he was kept on with salary during covid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
