smurf1635 Posted December 30, 2014 #1 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Today I missed a call from Carnival, offering an upgrade sell to a balcony. Unfortunately, I was unable to answer and she left a message. When I returned her call, she was unavailable. I will try again in the morning, but it appears the sailing is sold out, so I bet I missed out. Its nice to know I was on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelkel2 Posted December 30, 2014 #2 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I would still try. You never know. You literally have nothing to lose by making that phone call!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out to sea! Posted December 30, 2014 #3 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I concur. She may not have the deal that she was going to offer but she may have something you would like.......if you're interested in moving to a better cabin. If she doesn't have a good deal you only lost 5 minutes of times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWolver672 Posted December 30, 2014 #4 Share Posted December 30, 2014 They will also call you and try to get you to buy their insurance if you haven't already gotten it from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyfrazee Posted December 30, 2014 #5 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I have 3 OV rooms for the 3rd of January on the Fascination and received an upsell call yesterday. The offer was 3 Jr Suites for $900 more. I told them they could keep them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mollymyers15 Posted December 30, 2014 #6 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I'll be interested to see if I get an upsell call closer to cruising time. I've never received one before. I did call yesterday just to see what it would be to upgrade to a balcony cabin and it was somewhere around $400 (which I declined). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs. Ram Posted December 30, 2014 #7 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I'm really hoping I get that call for our wedding cruise in March. I want a suite! Doubt I will be so lucky though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenjiRodney Posted December 30, 2014 #8 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I got the email last time and took the offer to go from a balcony to a suite. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smurf1635 Posted December 31, 2014 Author #10 Share Posted December 31, 2014 I did reach Carnival this morning. I declined the offer to move to a deck 10 balcony for $300 and chose to stay in my square inside on deck 6. Maybe if we weren't headed to the Breeze when we get off the Conquest..... Thanks for listening :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gone_cruisin Posted December 31, 2014 #12 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Do people who book thru travel agents get up sell calls directly? Or does carnival go thru your TA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seabum Posted December 31, 2014 #14 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Do people who book thru travel agents get up sell calls directly? Or does carnival go thru your TA? exactly my question - never ever gotten the call - and our upcoming cruise GTY was the worst cabin assignment I've ever had. (all the way forward lower deck under theater) Really hoping to move with either last minute upgrade or upsell. we tend to use outside TA - so I may need to call myself or ask her to inquire as we get closer.

Rare AtSeaWithChris Posted December 31, 2014 #15 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Do people who book thru travel agents get up sell calls directly? Or does carnival go thru your TA? We go through our PVP and this time I asked her about upsell calls. She asked me if I wanted her to note that I'm open to them and I said sure. This was our first upsell call.
