LRY229 Posted July 12, 2014 Author #28 Share Posted July 12, 2014 I just got a call from the "real" upgrade fairy. I was booked solo in a 1A porthole at a great price (no single supplement) leaving tomorrow on the Victory for 5 night. Just got a phone call asking me if I would like a FREE upgrade to a Deck 8 balcony. I said absolutely!!! and about dropped the phone. ] Awesome. Can I ask how far out you got the call? ie, how many days before your cruise? Just curious when they make those sorts of calls... We have 46 days until our cruise to the Southern Caribbean!!! Can't Wait! I'm leaving today and they called yesterday afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retired_to_Cruise Posted July 12, 2014 #29 Share Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) Probably got a cabin that some smoker who didn't read past "smoking on balconies prohibited" canceled because he thought it started immediately. :) Edited July 12, 2014 by Retired_to_Cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be my 18th Carnival cruise and I've had upsell calls/emails before but never a free upgrade. The upgrade fairy is still alive and well. Sorry I had to brag a little That is totally awesome! So nice to hear about someone getting an actual, bonafide upgrade! (Not an upsell) Yay for you - have a wonderful time!

Ladderlieu29 Posted July 12, 2014 #35 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Would someone please send that upgrade fairy in my general direction???:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise-Crazy Posted July 13, 2014 #36 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Nice!! Always like the balcony :D Got upgraded from inside to balcony on my last cruise but I had to call them. Gotta watch those price drops. Even ended up with some OBC in that deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin_Mac Posted July 13, 2014 #37 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Congrats! She does still exist!! She's called me on 2 of the last 3 sailings we've done. Once from a porthole to an ocean view, the other was from interior to an ocean view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duegwb Posted July 13, 2014 #38 Share Posted July 13, 2014 I got a call the other day for an upgrade to a grand suite from a grand scenic ocean view for a cool $850. I opted to stay put. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I had to brag a little Not to worry you have the right to brag! :D Congratz!! What gives me hope is that we have a PT 1A cabin booked for 12/1, out of Jax and it will be out 20th Carnival cruise. I noticed that you are from St. Augustine. I use to be in the Finance unit at the FNG Armory in St. Augustine. Enjoy your cruise! John Edited July 13, 2014 by JWGrayson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
