hlb76 Posted February 2, 2011 #1 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I just got a call from CCL guess it was a good day to stay home sick..... They offered me a suite for am extra $400. Of course I got caught up in the excitement and took it. Now I'm having a bit of regrets.... Please tell me more about cabin 6156 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCC retired Posted February 2, 2011 #2 Share Posted February 2, 2011 What ship ??? Length of cruise ???? Upgrading from what category to what category suite??? Depending on your answers , $400 could be a deal or no deal at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hlb76 Posted February 2, 2011 Author #3 Share Posted February 2, 2011 We are on a 5 day Spirit cruise and there are 4 of us. We had a extended balcony on deck 8. Now we are on deck 6 in a suite I think the extra room will be nice for us and the VIP boarding and tendering. Guess getting a suite is not something we would ever do for ourselves on our free will but this will be a nice time it give it a try! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quickrate Posted February 2, 2011 #5 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Priority boarding will be nice, but unfortunately, you won't get priority tendering. That's a platinum perk. You will love the spirit-I'll miss her when she gets sent to Australia. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starrfish Posted February 2, 2011 #10 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I was thinking my trip was too close to get a call... I'm so glad to hear that you all are getting the upgrade! I hope you all have an AMAZING vacation!!!! If you post while you are on your trip, I will be stalking you... otherwise I have to wait till I get back to see how much fun you all had. :) Starrfish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hlb76 Posted February 2, 2011 Author #11 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Yes $400 total was the offer. I think it's going to be great to try! I was shocked when I got the call 3 days out! The sailing has been listed sold out of all but interiors for a while. I am not telling the kids they will be amazed! We are normally inside cabin people. Now to get packing!

Irishlinny Posted February 3, 2011 #16 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Congrats! I would have taken it, especially with 4 people! We had 6258 on the Miracle last year because we had my DD with us and we loved the extra room. Also nice to have the separate dressing area, the double sinks and the big shower with tub. Balcony is double the size! Here is a link to some pics of your cabin on the Pride...will be the same for the most part. There are a little better pics of the cabin itself if you go to the Spirit and look at cabin #6154 (also an Ocean Suite). http://********************/view_room.php?r_id=27239 Enjoy and have fun! It won't let me post the link in here. Go to cruiselinerooms dot com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're three days out from your cruise and you're just now starting to pack? We leave on the Legend on February 27 and my wife started packing last August. Tsk, tsk.

hlb76 Posted February 3, 2011 Author #18 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I am normally packed way ahead of time but this year I was lacking all motivation to get it done. We are calling this vaction "Cruise of Doom" there have been so many bumps in the road I was really not sure we would even get to go. But now we are days away :eek: and have this AWESOME room we darn right better get to go! And it better be worth it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been there many times. Love fishing near Perham. What part of Minnesota are you from? I grew up in North Dakota. I also work with a guy here in SLC who grew up in Minnesota up by Brainerd and he's planning on moving back there in a year when he retires.

Kiki's Korner Posted February 4, 2011 #24 Share Posted February 4, 2011 You will love having a suite. My first cruise I ended up with a two day migraine. By the second night, I could barely get out of bed. My husband and the friends we were on the cruise with ordered in dinner and they sat in the sitting area playing cards and keeping me company. Our steward came in and made about 15 different towel animals to entertain us. Never could have done that in a small room! Have a great trip! Sounds like you need it.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
