Upgrade now. If you want it, don't wait.

 

Upgrade at check-in is unheard off, and upgrades once on board is rare. Usually there is a sign at guest services indicating no upgrade are available.

What triptolemus said.

 

The check-in staff in terminal regardless of the port are port employees that only know how to handle basic check-in procedures, you basically can't do any changes to your reservation during the check-in.

 

Also during all my years on this forum I've heard only few times about people being able to upgrade after boarding.

I'd assume that OP's location of "Bristol" is in UK and most likely booked through the UK office, in which case they are not eligble for calling the upsell number in US - there is no upsell department in UK.

If you want to upgrade to a Balcony you can likely do so by calling NCL and paying the difference in price between what you paid and the current cost of the balcony. You are not going to be able to upgrade at the pier or on board.

Years ago, yes. I did it often, but not since .... around 2006 I'd say.

Cruise ships like airlines are getting much better at revenue management. They are trying to squeeze every last cent out of the ship and want that ship to sail FULL. Depending on how well the ship is filling up they will either offer upsells or offer last minute fare sales to last minute cruisers at a deep discount. The likely answer is they do some combination of both. If there are still empty cabins available at check in then whoever is in revenue management probably isn't doing a very good job as a cabin would sail empty.

It won't happen. As stated, the terminal staff are just there to process, they've no way of upgrading etc. If a UK guest then you'll need to pay the difference. P.S once you go to a balcony it's hard to go back

The only cruise line that still upgrades day of, at least from my personal experience, is Disney. Do it now if you can.
