Wallybirds Posted February 10, 2005 #1 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Has anyone ever called Carnival up the day before a cruise sailing and asked to pay for a upgrade at a discounted rate?We know the cruise we are going on has at least 105 better cabins still empty. Just wondering if this ever has come up before. Thought I might give it a try. Janet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yst347 Posted February 10, 2005 #3 Share Posted February 10, 2005 The ship's manifest must be given to Homeland security 72 hours before sailing so this is no longer possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarbashchaputi Posted February 10, 2005 #5 Share Posted February 10, 2005 I wonder if that would make a difference to DHS? It still would not hurt to call and see, you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tef43 Posted February 10, 2005 #7 Share Posted February 10, 2005 By that time all of the guarantees will have already been upgraded. Typically what will be left, if anything, will be lesser accomodations than you already have. Carnival does not upgrade at the pier, and the "No Upgrades Available" sign will be in clear view at the Purser's Desk after you board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
