Same cruise inside gty...they said no...price is less for a balcony than I paid for the inside gty. I booked with Princess not with a TA, if that matters. I had no problem getting a upgrade from IA Guar. to a BW assigned rm. that cost the same as the price I paid for the inside. I would keep trying if I was you. Good luck.

Chunder Worthy Posted September 12, 2015 #12 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Good for you, Lum! As you know, it never hurts to ask. The squeaky wheel gets the grease... OK, I'm all out of adages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelers36 Posted September 12, 2015 #13 Share Posted September 12, 2015 (edited) Can I assume everyone realizes the BW is an Obstructed Balcony? And I realize it may not matter as the preference can be for daylight, air and so forth over the Inside. We're on a DW GTY right now and will accept our fate as well since we have been booking Insides of late and decided to roll the dice (for essentially the same bottom-line cost) and see what happens. Worst case is some daylight and an opportunity to step outside from time to time. Edited September 12, 2015 by steelers36 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HLR Posted September 12, 2015 #14 Share Posted September 12, 2015 SQUEAKY WHEEL HERE! And it worked! Three phone calls and my TA finally got a Princess agent to upgrade me from an inside ID GTY to a obstructed balcony BY assigned cabin in an excellent location! The current posted price of the BY is less than I payed for the inside GTY. If I had not seen this thread I would never have called back [twice] and just waited and been sad. Not because I wasn't upgraded when I DID save money getting an inside GTY as a solo paying the solo supplement...but because the carrot was dangled in front of my nose...the online TA said I would get it...and then it was taken away. Luckily...I got it back! HLR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
