SnorkelBear Posted October 18, 2006 #1 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Thanks to the fairy, we will be sailing onboard the Noordam in the nicest cabin we have ever sailed in. We purchased an SY Guar. Last week we were assigned an SS cabin, and this morning we were offered an upsell to an SB. We were able to get a corner aft for us and one for the inlaws on the other corner. Now we are really looking forward to celebrating our 10th anniversary and our first HAL cruise. So far, I love HAL. May you all be visited by the fairy soon.

It looks like you are ready to cruise in fine style. Our situation on the Prinsendam recently was just the opposite of yours. we took an upsell from our Cat C to an SS and then received a visit from the upgrade fairy that put us in an SA. We were quite pleased, to say the least:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frick_&_Frack Posted October 18, 2006 #9 Share Posted October 18, 2006 We are new to cruising, CCL-Valor-Eastern Caribbean 6/05. HAL-Westerdam-12/06. How do you get the upgrades. we are in a Verandah room would love to be able to get a small suite. Any suggestions? There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason on upgrades on any cruise line. As for upsells, let your TA or PVP know you would be interested and call them periodically to see about it. I just did that for my parents (who are currently on the Noordam in a SA) - I called and finally got an upsell and did that for my Mom's birthday present.

richrhon1 Posted October 18, 2006 #10 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Thanks Frick. I will speak with my TA and see what they can do. I have 2 cabins booked and would love to get both upgraded if possible. Verandah for my wife and I and Inside for the kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legalslave Posted October 20, 2006 #11 Share Posted October 20, 2006 SnorkelBear, I hope I am not being too personal is asking and if I am, just ignore my question. Would you mind stating how much more per person you paid for the upsell? Not asking what the total price was, just the difference between what you were paying and the upsell price?

Mlascheid Posted October 20, 2006 #12 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Legalslave... I'm not SnorkelBear, but I thought I'd chime in here since I'm so excited about my upsell. I just upgraded 2 cabins from SS to SA on Zuiderdam for $199pp. Can't wait...this is our first suite on HAL and I'm trying to keep it a secret from DH.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruznon Posted October 20, 2006 #13 Share Posted October 20, 2006 How great! The corner aft cabins are fabulous! Have a fantastic cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine91 Posted October 20, 2006 #14 Share Posted October 20, 2006 We were able to get a corner aft for us and one for the inlaws on the other corner. Schnorkelbearguy - WOW! That is some prime real estate you got yourself. I am shocked that those corner afts weren't already snapped up. Congrats on the new digs & the anniversary. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
