Hi Doug!  Thanks for sharing this helpful information!  We are super happy with our Large Balcony room we chose but would love to get in on the Haven experience!  You said you've always bid in the "poor" zone which is what we have just done.  I'm going to assume we won't be accepted unless we push the meter upwards!  I'm interested in knowing when you say "above/less than out right booking" does that mean the current price of said cabin?

Good luck with your bids! Appreciate your insight!

Hi Moe and Sue, What I'm referring to is: I messaged our travel agent and asked "if we were just to change our booking to those particular Haven Suites what would the cost be?"  So, yes, it refers to the current price of said cabin 🙂

Hey All, 

We sail on January 5th, 2020 from San Juan on an 11 day aboard the Epic.  We received the upgrade option a few weeks back.  Finally got around to doing a bit of research to figure out what we would like to do. 

We are currently booked in a mini-suite on the 11th floor and have placed bids on the following:

H2 - High Fair on the meter (They are currently sold out, just bid in case of a last minute cancellation)

H4 - Mid Fair on the meter (currently 12 rooms available)

H5 - Low fair on the meter (currently 2 rooms available)

H9 - Low fair on the meter (currently 4 rooms available)

In our situation:

High fair is a couple hundred dollars (Cdn) above outright booking

Mid fair is a few hundred dollars (Cdn) less than outright booking

Low fair is about 600 dollars (Cdn) less than out right booking

We are silver members and will be gold after this cruise.  We have tried the upgrades 4 times previous without luck, however we have always bid in the "poor" section hoping to grab a bargain.  We have heard so many amazing things about the haven that we have to give it a try with a little more zeal this time as I'm growing more cantankerous as the years go by and "busyness" irritates me. :)

Will keep you all posted as to the outcome.

Doug
