abisha Posted February 16, 2015 #1 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I was just curious... can you ask to be upgraded when checking in at the port (but not expecting it to be a free upgrade but rather offering to pay upon finding out what the cost to upgrade is). Can they change you last minute for whatever the cost is if a cabin is available that you may like better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can always ask once onboard but usually told the sailing is full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Working 2 Cruise Posted February 16, 2015 #3 Share Posted February 16, 2015 No. No way, no how... check-in staff isn't equipped to deal with this. You're better off seeing if you can upgrade a couple of days before the cruise but don't count on cheaper fares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted February 16, 2015 #4 Share Posted February 16, 2015 If you want an upgrade, you need to contact your TA or Princess before the cruise. The cost will be the current price of the cabin you upgrade to minus what you paid for your current cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZbeachboy Posted February 16, 2015 #5 Share Posted February 16, 2015 No not at the pier. As others said you must do it ahead of time. I am not sure and others can gently correct me, but I think it must be done atleast five days prior. I know that cruise personalizers are not available after that date.

shredie Posted February 16, 2015 #6 Share Posted February 16, 2015 There is always a sign at passenger services announcing the cruise is full and no rooms are available. Whether it's true or not, it does show that they don't want you asking for an upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that cruise personalizers are not available after that date.The check-in people at the pier do not have access to the booking system so even if they were willing, they couldn't do anything. Your Cruise Personalizer isn't available within five days of sailing. However, you can call Princess or your TA to upgrade yourself. I think up to 24 hours before sailing.
