pompeii Posted November 3, 2014 #1 Share Posted November 3, 2014 I'm so excited! Last night we got an email offering an upsell to a window suite on our 5-day Caribbean for $129 extra. We were booked in an obstructed OV, so we called back and left a vm saying we were interested. We just got the call back and we are now the proud occupants of our very first suite! I know a lot of people will say that the extra $25 pp extra per day wouldn't be worth it, but since this is the only way we'll ever occupy a suite, it's worth it to us! Plus we keep our existing OBC and get the 2 cruise credits. So excited!!:D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeaGeg Posted November 3, 2014 #5 Share Posted November 3, 2014 We were upgraded to a window suite on the Golden this summer, and it was wonderful! We took full advantage of the benefits. You'll have a great time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IECalCruiser Posted November 3, 2014 #6 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Enjoy your WS and the breakfast at Sabatini's. We really like the WS bathroom layout and two sinks. Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julia’s Journey’s Posted November 3, 2014 #7 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Enjoy - Great upsell and would be worth it for me as also the only way we would get to try a suite and the perks that go with it:D I have 3 cruises booked on CB for 2015 and would love the chance to get an upsell :) Enjoy, Enjoy, Enjoy:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RetiredNTraveling Posted November 3, 2014 #9 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Outstanding! ;) Congratulations and enjoy the "Suite Life". You will find that it is worth every penny!:D It has happened to us 3 times and each upsell to a suite has been fantastic. I believe you will enjoy the "Breakfast at Sabatini's" perk! :eek: Outside of the suite itself, B@S's is our favorite! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cr8tiv1 Posted November 3, 2014 #11 Share Posted November 3, 2014 I will take a Window Suite any time. Love the location and all that goes with it. On our last three cruise, we had MDR dinner in the cabin and tea service (different days). I've even had Pub Lunch/fish and chips in the room. No myth....yes, suites have priority dining for anytime dining. Enjoy your cruise. It will spoil you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deminggraham Posted November 3, 2014 #12 Share Posted November 3, 2014 You are so lucky. We had a WS on our Hawaii cruise and loved it and all of the suite perks. The cabin location is perfect and the cabins are huge. It is my favorite cabin of all and I wish more ships had them. Have a great cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We usually book ourselves but for some reason used a travel agent for our 5 day on 11/24 and now are worried that an upsell email will go directly to our agent. The problem is is that she is on maternity leave! We have taken advantage of an upsell before but we booked the cruise ourselves and so received the email directly.

Thanks, MickeyGD:o We booked directly through Princess on this cruise and the one right before it. I don't know how many people they made the offer to and how important it was to call back right away, but all the WS were gone shortly after we got ours. So I think we must have been one of the first to call back. Does your TA have someone filling in for her while on leave? I know I would be disappointed to miss an upgrade or upsell due to the agent being out on leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

long cruiser Posted November 4, 2014 #21 Share Posted November 4, 2014 We were upgraded to a window suite on the golden princess this year on a 15 day cruise from buenosaires to valpariso upsell.Its was a wonderful experience. Now we are sailing on the new regal this week and we were offered a up sell to owner's suite for a great price. Once you have been in a suite it hard to even go back to a mini-suite. long cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Host Jazzbeau Posted November 4, 2014 #24 Share Posted November 4, 2014 So, Window Suites. I didn't know about this category of cabin. Are they only on Caribbean, Golden and Grand? Where they added in the refurbs in 2011 and 2012? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
