April 8th - Expedia shows 9 Sky Suites available for booking so you got a chance

As someone else said --- you will see available categories above where you are currently booked - I saw Sky Suite as well as 3 or 4 other higher level suites

what did you bid?

congratulations

We also went from Concierge to Sky Suite - bid was $855 (each) - we are Elite so got that slight bump percentage. Showed pending but I never tried to change it and never saw it in 'locked' status.

Are you referring to the April 8th cruise on Apex? I'm on that cruise and was notified 2 days ago (the 15th) that our bid from Concierge to Sky Suite was accepted. What cabin type are you bidding on and what are you currently in?

Ship: Apex Length of Cruise: 7 Cruise Sail Date: April 1, 2023 Date email offer received: January 21st Captain’s Club Tier - Elite Booked through Celebrity Direct OR via TA: TA Current Cabin: Infinite Veranda Bid?

Thanks for the posts - gonna spend 14 days on Apex in April B2B

Truth.

you can see poll in this review

Yep - we have the Samsung Smart Tags - one in each piece of luggage, purse, knapsack, etc. So far have never had to use them but it is a comforting to board the plane and see that the luggage is also on the plane and also know that's it's off the plane and waiting to go on baggage claim.

I am sure some of the oceanviews are going to bid to move up therefore opening up some rooms... and of course no shows and last minute cancellations.

In the past I've actually contacted via cruise critic forums someone on cruise before mine that was doing a B2B - had them buy me a bottle on last day of their first cruise and give to me when I boarded.

they gave us this in the cabin on the Summit in 2021- both of us got one, while we are Elite there were other B2B who were not and they also got the card

Also - last time we did a B2B they gave both of us one free laundry bag after first cruise Hope they still do that as we have a B2B in April
