LovesAllTravel Posted January 10, 2012 #1 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I received a call from the upsell fairy this morning, for my 4-night cruise departing this Thursday on Carnival Triumph. My 22 y/o daughter and I are in a 6B oceanview cabin on Deck 2, paid $369 pp. The upsell fairy offered us an 8C balcony on Deck 7 for $150 total. I declined, mainly because the bed configuration in the balcony cabin is a queen-sized bed, not twins. Even though I love, love balcony cabins, to me it was not worth the $150.

firefly333 Posted January 10, 2012 #2 Share Posted January 10, 2012 What?? Balconys have the same beds as OVs. I would call back for $150 and take it. There are a couple of cabins that the beds do not push together, is that all they have left they told you? A couple of oddball cabins. Im not sure what else to think you mean by your comment why you declined. Do you really think balconys dont have beds that push together so husband and wife can sleep together? Maybe Im miss-reading.

tef43 Posted January 10, 2012 #5 Share Posted January 10, 2012 It appears that 7416 and 7419 are the only balcony cabins on Deck 7 that have queen-beds that do not separate to twins. Thes two cabins are the ones with the extra-long "bowling alley" balconies near the aft of the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
