Rare chasinraynbowz Posted May 15, 2016 #1 Share Posted May 15, 2016 I am booked with a Bounce Back offer from February on the Dream in July. I paid extra to get the OV cabin, but now am kicking myself for not getting a balcony. I checked and there are several balconies left. Considering I had to have this booked by the end of February, anyone have a clue if I can upgrade to a balcony? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mzlinda Posted May 15, 2016 #5 Share Posted May 15, 2016 I was not able to upgrade my Bb from interior to OV back in January. There are a limited number of each room type available under that offer and by the time I called, only interiors were left. Good luck. Let us know how you make out.

meatloafsfan Posted May 15, 2016 #7 Share Posted May 15, 2016 I've been around quite awhile, but what is "bounce back offer"? Its offered by the casino to those gamblers they want to come back - it's usually a "free" cruise, often interior cabins (paying for port fees and taxes with the option to pay for a better cabin like an ov or balcony). Good luck upgrading. Sometimes there are still casino cabins available and sometimes not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suz1450 Posted May 15, 2016 #8 Share Posted May 15, 2016 I was told that you could not change cabins after the 2-week booking window for the free cruise:( Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare chasinraynbowz Posted May 15, 2016 Author #9 Share Posted May 15, 2016 My sister called her PVP and was told we could not upgrade since it was past the booking window. I am going to call the casino booking number and double check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
workerbee01 Posted May 16, 2016 #10 Share Posted May 16, 2016 We upgraded from an Ocean View to a Suite without any difficulties. Well....except for paying out more $ lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MICHLEV1974 Posted May 16, 2016 #11 Share Posted May 16, 2016 does Carnival have a dedicated 800# to call for upgrades (NCL has a special number)...or do you just call carnival customer service number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jocko4279 Posted May 16, 2016 #12 Share Posted May 16, 2016 I would definitely think so. I paygraded to a balcony from an inside on the Sunshine two years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherbear4000 Posted May 17, 2016 #13 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I was told I would not be able to upgrade at a later date with the free casino offer. My PVP told me that they can only enter the promo once, so I would have to pick the cabin I wanted from the beginning or I would have to pay full price to upgrade at a later date.

xyzcruiser Posted May 17, 2016 #14 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I have upgraded several times with a bounce back, both at the time of booking and at a later date. Never had any trouble doing so through customer service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpyjr88 Posted May 17, 2016 #15 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I was given a free cruise a couple years ago (that was not associated with the casino) and was able to upgrade to an OV after I booked the inside cabin. I later found out that the ship I was sailing on has inside french door cabins and when I asked if I could change to that room, was told I couldn't because it is actually a downgrade. So you can upgrade, but you can't down grade. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare chasinraynbowz Posted May 17, 2016 Author #16 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Update - No, I can not upgrade. I called and was told that for me to upgrade, the promotion must still be available. Lesson learned. We have an OV, but wanted a balcony since we have 3 sea days. I will be happy with my OV! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
