Sanctuary bidding on Sun Princess

[cruise*enthusiast]

Does anyone know if winning an upgrade bid going from a Deluxe Balcony to a Sanctuary Balcony will include the Premier Package?  Sailing November 30th. I know all of the Sanctuary Collection cabins include it, but I’m not sure if it’s included with bid upgrades. Thanks!

I do not think so.  The bidding site has had many web errors in the past week. I reported it.  There was a change in my site after that.

I recently won an upgrade to a Sanctuary Suite on Sun Princess and it does not come with a Premier Package.

It does not.  If it did, then Princess would have to refund money to people who already purchased Premier after they successfully bid for an upgrade. And we all know the odds of Princess refunding that amount of cash.

If you have a package, either purchased (PLUS or PREMIER), or by booking a Sanctuary Cabin after the new Sanctuary Class was announced, your package will follow you.

The Upgrade is for the upgraded cabin only. 

Bid accordingly.

Thanks for everyone’s help. I called Princess and confirmed that it is just the cabin without the Premier.

May I ask what you were upgrading from, what type of suite you won, and if you bid low or not?

I bid from a deluxe balcony. My bid was in the higher end of the Fair category.

Bringing this up as others think the bid would ncludes Premiere package.
