MajMom96 Posted May 19, 2019 #126 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I totally agree you got a great deal on upgrading to a Signature Suite! The extra space will be well worth it for three people! Enjoy!🍸 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare terrydtx Posted May 19, 2019 #127 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Warning, once you try a SS you may not be able to just have a standard verandah again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuolumne couple Posted May 19, 2019 #128 Share Posted May 19, 2019 we love them! our first suite was on an Alaskan cruise, and it was well worth the up sell for us. If this is the one time you are going to do it, having a suite is well worth it, in our opinion. If you are traveling with others, having the extra space is welcome, as the balcony is deeper and you can entertain out there. we've even invited new friends to our balcony for a pre-dinner drink, as the balcony is so much more roomy, especially if you choose a mid-ship suite. The biggest perk being you also get double the points in a suite. Whatever you decide, i hope you have a lovely Alaskan cruise. Since the daylight is so much longer , the sun being out so very very late, you will really enjoy it. Have a good time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got an upsell to a Vista Suite on the Zaandam and thought we would get the double day benefit for Mariner status. We did not receive the double day credit and when I asked HA if it had been an oversight, they said you do not receive the double day credit if you get an upsell. It is only for people that book at published price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, a lovely cruise is the end result!! That is all i wish for anyone. A happy healthy lovely cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One year we decided to book a Signature suite not a Neptune for an Alaska cruise through our PCC. We received a great offer to upsell to a Neptune but declined figuring we’d been in many Neptune’s let someone else have it. Well, within a week we got another offer which was even cheaper and grabbed it. I couldn’t believe it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny, every time since we reached 4-star we have been asked to show our boarding pass when we entered the priority line. Maybe we just don't look like we belong there.

Maybe we just don't look like we belong there. not necessarily... i think it is just to avoid confusion... a lot of people accidentally get in the wrong line... i have always been asked for my boarding pass several times, but honestly..embarkation day is such a happy day for me..i practically look for any excuse to pull it out and show it to someone. 🙂 Edited May 25, 2019 by tuolumne couple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
