Postman1963 Posted January 17, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 17, 2011 I got the call to upgrade to an owners suite on the Spirit last night. I just called back and I missed the opportunity. I am still kicking my self. Oh well we are in aft penthouse 9212 so it is not a huge loss, but, darn it I have been eyeballing that suite for months now.

welove2cruise* Posted January 17, 2011 #2 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Just out of curiosity, did you book directly through NCL or with an agency? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheapboxer Posted January 17, 2011 #3 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Did they have your cell phone number? I may change my home number to my cell number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slcreads Posted January 17, 2011 #4 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Just out of curiosity, how far out is your sailing? I always wonder when they start making the upsell calls. I got a call two weeks prior to my Alaska sailing on the Pearl. Is that about how far out your sailing is? Are you farther out, closer in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Postman1963 Posted January 17, 2011 Author #5 Share Posted January 17, 2011 We are sailing next Sunday on the 23rd. We booked directly with NCL. AJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tc_mc_cruiser Posted January 17, 2011 #6 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Did they tell you how much the upgrade would cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Why Knot Me Posted January 17, 2011 #7 Share Posted January 17, 2011 They called on Sunday night :confused: I thought they were a Monday thru Friday operation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Postman1963 Posted January 17, 2011 Author #8 Share Posted January 17, 2011 They called at 7:30 last night while I was watching my Seattle Thunderbirds losing to the mighty Vancouver Giants. When I noticed the blinking light on my phone this morning and made the call it was too late. They wanted 800 dollars to upgrade. I most likely would have turned it down ( my limit was 500) and I had offered that on two earlier occasions by calling my PCC. I am perfectly happy with our aft penthouse and have been looking forward to it since we got back from our May 2010 Alaska cruise on the Pearl. Next cruise will probably be the Pacific Coastal on the Star in September '11. AJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilD Posted January 17, 2011 #9 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Changed my primary phone number to my cell phone. We will be in Florida 6 days before the cruise. Also have an Aft Suite....I will probably be on 'big thunder mountain' when they call and won't be able to reach my phone.....5 day cruise...hoping for $400 or $500 upgrade...oh well, we shall see...
