crusinmama06 Posted September 26, 2011 #1 Share Posted September 26, 2011 I am sharing with my Family Board friends :D I've always been closer with you all anyway. This is the FIRST TIME the fairy has ever called and it had to be with NCL! BLESS YOU! :D I just got the call to go from an AFT Balcony to a TWO BEDROOM SUITE with suite perks!!! WOOHOOOO!!!!! We are leaving on Sunday so you know I will return with a full review of our adventure. I originally turned it down, but then called them back when I looked at the reviews and saw TWO BATHROOMS! :eek: Oh yeah, that's more than worth it!!!!! Review with pics to come folks!!!!!

eh2zed Posted September 26, 2011 #2 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Congratulations. You didn't say what it cost but it is considerable upgrade in accomodation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusinmama06 Posted September 26, 2011 Author #3 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Congratulations. You didn't say what it cost but it is considerable upgrade in accomodation. I don't mind sharing, I am an open book. It was $400 :D Yes, I consider this a HUGE SCORE! I am frantically searching for pictures and I am being overwhelmed and things like the BATHROOM. :eek::p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skippyy Posted September 26, 2011 #4 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Good for you. Did NCL call or send offer through travel agent ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerry's Girls Posted September 26, 2011 #5 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Congrats Michelle! The suite perks are amazing on NCL - we got an upsell also on our last cruise and it was so luxurious. Have a great time! Best, Mia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithkids5521 Posted September 26, 2011 #6 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Oh wow...congrats!

crusinmama06 Posted September 26, 2011 Author #7 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Good for you. Did NCL call or send offer through travel agent ? I am the TA ;) But funny enough they called my host agency and said that they wanted to call "their client" and my host said "Well that's my agent, let's just get her right on the phone!" :D And you better believe there WILL BE PICTURES!!!!! :D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted September 26, 2011 #8 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Michele, here is a website with some pictures of your cabin (type). the first 17 pictures are of the 2 bdr family suite. Unless they have refurbed in the last 4 years, I hope you like purple...EM http://web8.506.bces.de/cruise_xxl/thumbnails.php?album=25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main reason that I asked, booked Princess Pacific for 15 Nov (Holy Land). We have a couple of AA mini's. We're 50 days from dock dancing and 5 Owners suites and 6 Penthouse suites still open but they have a load of GTY's and waitlists (oops forgot to say, as of today 42 cabins balcony and above open). Wondering if we have best shot at upsell or upgrade ? using a TA. I have trouble figuring out how Princess will make decisions ? Certainly enough folks on GTY and waiting list to account for empty cabins but rather than shifting alot of us up a category, might they just jump some of them over us ! Very unpleasant notion with full realization we are getting what we paid for and are completely satisfied ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topspot Posted September 26, 2011 #11 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Holy Cow, I love the jacuzzi tub by the window. You'd have a hard time getting me out of there:D Have a great time, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerry's Girls Posted September 26, 2011 #12 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Holy Cow, I love the jacuzzi tub by the window. You'd have a hard time getting me out of there:D Have a great time, My kids loved that the bathtub had its own TV. Also, the shower has a floor to ceiling window so it's just you and the ocean :). My favorite was that the butler will bring anything from any of the restaurants as room service. Our next cruise is in an inside cabin...oh how the mighty have fallen ;) Best, Mia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodmnky Posted September 26, 2011 #13 Share Posted September 26, 2011 I'm more than a bit jealous. We had to give up our awesome very spacious room to save money, but there would be NO WAY I could pass up an upgrade like that. I can't wait to see your review when you come back.

tunseeker1 Posted September 27, 2011 #18 Share Posted September 27, 2011 We just got back from the same size room on the Jewel. I have a review here and on the NCL board with some of the pictures up but not all of them. Did you get deck 11 or 14? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crusinmama06 Posted September 27, 2011 Author #23 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Now, call her back and give her my number. ;) Can you believe I TRIED! I tried for one of the posters here that's on my roll call because I see its her anniversary and she has been trying to get a penthouse for it. I said "Now that you called me, I don't know this person's reservation number, but I know her name only and its a really special occassion and she LOVES NCL, can you call her?" And they said "We can't take requests" :( {sigh} I tried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikesteg Posted September 27, 2011 #24 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Can you believe I TRIED! Not surprising at all, but very sweet. And I'm guessing she couldn't upgrade our cabin on Carnival Spirit anyway. :D I keep looking at NCL, but haven't gotten there yet... Bon Voyage!
