Babr Posted October 7, 2014 #27 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I'm new to Royal Caribbean. May I ask how you did this? Does RCI approach you with an offer or do you just watch for price drops and call when you see an opportunity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lauraapp Posted October 7, 2014 #29 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Nice gesture...I wish my husband would surprise me like that! You only live once, if you can afford go for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drarill Posted October 7, 2014 #30 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I wouldn't have booked an aft CL. Our cabin is on the port side of the ship. RCCL just called me to let me know that they needed to move my cabin one room over so a family could have to cabins next to each other. For my trouble they offered an extra $100 OBC. Life is good (as long as the wife doesn't kille me). :D Great upgrade!! Enjoy the suite life!!! and happy anniversary!

JasonV1 Posted October 7, 2014 #31 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I always wait to consider suites for the "high demand" cruises. My NYE cruise this year has a bunch of JS available right now. The guarantee rate has already opened up, but given the high inventory I expect the prices to drop even more. I got a JS on my Allure cruise this past spring by waiting until about 9 days out to upgrade. Those last 2 weeks prior to sailing are filled with tons of drops for high inventory categories, drops that can occur at any time and go away quickly once inventory drops.

StaBla Posted October 7, 2014 #32 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Hello Adam! My husband Keith and I are on the same cruise (and on the Roll Call with you). Thinking that we so need to do a Cabin Crawl now! When do you plan on springing this surprise on your wife? Stacy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KS Sunflower Posted October 7, 2014 #33 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I would be very unhappy with my husband if he paid that much for a 7 day cruise, don't care if it is a suite! That's a lot more than we paid for our upcoming 13 night TA balcony. And he would be just as unhappy if I did it!:D Sherri:) I agree. We're on the Quantum maiden voyage and booked an inside cabin, with virtual balcony for $599.00pp. To me, a suite just isn't worth the extra money. However, if, I win the lottery, I might feel differently. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Chew Posted October 7, 2014 #35 Share Posted October 7, 2014 $4300 for both of you? In a Crown Loft? for a week? On Oasis? Sounds good to me!! I'm so jealous!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topo Gigio Posted October 7, 2014 #36 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Dude, you're crazy! The money to upgrade is the cost of 2 or 3 more cruises! If he can afford it, why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted October 7, 2014 #37 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Wow! This is a complete 180 from yesterday when you asked about downgrading after final payment. Congrats.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omgyani Posted October 7, 2014 #38 Share Posted October 7, 2014 (edited) Great price! We loved our loft suite when we went in April... So much we're returning when the Allure goes to Barcelona next year. You'll love all the perks that come with having a suite. Hope you enjoy it! :) Sent from my iPhone using Forums Edited October 7, 2014 by omgyani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straughn Posted October 7, 2014 #39 Share Posted October 7, 2014 From the "wife" perspective -- A number of years ago my DH upgraded us to an OS for my 50th birthday. I did not kill him. Unfortunately he did create a monster in that from that cruise on, I wanted that much real estate every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charger2008 Posted October 7, 2014 #40 Share Posted October 7, 2014 We are on the November 1st sailing. We are celebrating our 5th anniversary and her Birthday on this cruise. I wanted to make it extra special. Not too long ago the CL suites were going for over $7000 for two people. I love price drops! Sent from my SM-N900V using Forums mobile app I was going to say that we had CL 1730 for our Oasis 2010 cruise and it was over $7,000 for the two of us so that is an EXCELLENT price :D Have fun :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
