Large Forward Oceanview to Concierge Class MoveUp offer questions

[LMaxwell]

I have a large/angled front oceanview cabin booked on the Silhouette for a quick 3 nighter 

 

I received a MoveUp bid offer and can bid on Concierge Class for a minimum of $100 per person.  Before I bid, some questions

• Are all Concierge Class balcony cabins, or if my bid is accepted is there a chance it is another oceanview cabin? 
• If bid is accepted, I am automatically assigned a room and charged; there is no "confirmation" or room selection on my end after submitting the bid? 
• Would I receive the higher points per night awarded to Concierge Class? Or do I only get the points per night for an Oceanview? 
• What are the actual, practical benefits?  MDR lunch at boarding, and bottle of champagne?  Plus the room being a veranda? Don't really see a need for concierge-type service, however it is the same bid price as a standard Veranda.

Yes, all CC are balcony.

No selecting cabin, your credit card will be charged after which you will be notified of your successful bid and cabin number.

Points are for the cabin you booked not CC cabin.

Lunch and bottle of inexpensive sparkling wine are the most tangible benefits.

All concierge rooms have a veranda. You would keep the original points for the ocean view room, not the points for the concierge room

Thank you both

Concierge rooms are generally on higher decks and more desirable locations than standard veranda categories.

Concierge passengers also have a dedicated waiting area with coffee, tea, water and pastries on Disembarkation day.
