Question about upgrading after final payment

[cschultz]

I have a porthole room on the Fascination for the 2/5 departure. Right now they have oceanview rooms for only $20 more than I paid (total). The only catch is they are guarantee rooms. Should I switch, or keep what I have. I am ok with the porthole room, and don't want to pay more, but for this little amount, should I do it>

 

 

Also, will I have to redo my fun pass?

For $10 pp I might .. what deck are you on with your port hole?? If you have a high deck, I might keep them for convenience, but they can be noisy that far forward.

 

For $10 pp ($20) you probably will get a quieter cabin, but it could be on riviera deck.

I am currently on Riviera deck, R8. Do you think I would get a quieter cabin? I tried to look at the available ocean view rooms, many are near elevators, or if I was moved to the empress deck, that would be under the dining rooms if I remember right.

 

I need to do this today if I do it. Also, I have a bon voyage basket coming from the casino,

would they search for my new room?

The port hole cabins are forward of the OVs, so it should be a little quieter.. and since you have a PT on Riveria .. I would be inclined to gamble for $20. Its only if you are right under the galley/kitchen that it can be noisy .. not the whole dining room which is carpeted. I was just next to a elevator. Iv been back to back and never heard them, but I was next to the atrium this time and did hear the dinging a few times...but a OV is not that near to hear it.

 

I would think the casino folks could find you . but dont know. Is there a way to contact them?

I guess I will gamble, (If I didn't I wouldn't be getting the basket from the casino)

Maybe they will give me a room now since it is less than a week to the cruise.

Let us know how you make out .. always curious to know. I love gtys myself and waiting to know if I got a good or great cabin.

Well, this is what I got. E26 on the Fascination. It is a 6D ocean view cabin. It is still fairly close to the front, but under the main show room. How loud do you think this will be?

It should be quiet in the morning anyway, and we are usually up late at night. It will be nice that we are on the 7th floor instead of the 4th floor. Much closer to everything.

Been in that exact room on the Ecstasy (sister ship) a couple years ago & it was perfectly fine. We were never bothered by any noise below us, but could be because we weren't in the room much that cruise, and if we were, probably could have slept thru anything. We enjoyed the location & all. Have a great time!

Thanks for your input. I am glad that I can finally print my luggage tags and fun pass.

I haven't done a guarantee for a long time and was a bit nervous about it. I think that I ended up doing pretty well!
