Upgrade Fairy kissed us BIG TIME

[Topo Gigio]

How do guarantees really work? I booked an inside guarantee on the Enchantment, and when I checked a few days later, I already had a room assignment (basic inside room on the lowest deck). I was surprised, becuse I thought with a guarantee, you got your room assignment a week to a few days before you sail. I am something like 75-80 days from sailing. Is there a chance it could get changed? That would be fantastic. Thanks!

 

It's different from cruise to cruise. Sometimes you get it the same day, sometimes just a couple of days before the cruise. Depends how good the cruise is selling and there might be another couple of factors we don't know about.

Now that is what I call an upgrade!!:D:D

 

LOL did the upgrade come with a Parrot and crackers with some Caviar? Very nice indeed.

What an incredibly nice surprise after a slight shock at first:

 

We are leaving on Splendour soon. I always monitor the prices and get daily emails to maybe make a bargain on an cheap upgrade as the sail away day comes closer. Just last saturday we (my wife and our 2 yo) upgraded from a JS to the much bigger Family-JS (FJ) for a decent amount. We were happy as there is only ONE FJ stateroom in the splendour and we got it.

 

Now the shock: My daily price change mail arrives and states that the FJ is not sold out anymore and available for booking again!

 

What the ... ?!?

 

I log in to my cruises on the RCL site and now the surprise:

 

"Your stateroom: ROYAL SUITE"

 

WOW!!!

 

Free Upgrades DO happen! And this one is extraordinary - Thank you, Royal Caribbean!

 

 

wow, thats incredible...you must be sooooooooo excited. Good on you :)

Have a wonderful cruise. You have a great concierge. Diego will

take great care of you. Tell him Anita and Moses say hi and we'll

see him in Sept. :)

Congrats on your upgrade.

Congratulations to the OP!

We are monitoring our Brilliance cruise(s) for August in the hope that we might somehow be able to upgrade from a balcony to a mini suite.

We are happy where we are but would love the opportunity.
