Tmacn Posted April 6, 2017 #676 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Received my email from NCL saying I did not receive upsell for this Saturday escape. We are in a mini suite with a large balcony and bid in the poor range for all haven suites except courtyard penthouse which we bid high fair borderlng on good. Thought we had a good chance with that one but you never know. I really miss the old upsell process of calling in. Hope some of you got what you wanted!! Do you know how many Haven suites were available over the past couple days on your cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really dont have alot of confidence in our bids if your fair/good rate wasnt accepted, but i refuse to bid any more than i have done. We are happy with our mini suite, but would love a chance to try out the Haven! Enjoy your cruise:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luv2plan Posted April 6, 2017 #678 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Do you know how many Haven suites were available over the past couple days on your cruise? For at least a month only the courtyard penthouses were showing available and I think the Haven spa but we are 3 people and can't fit in those. There were 8 courtyard penthouse suites available until last week when it went to 5 and then this week 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I'm not sure there is any rhyme or reason in how they are upgrading. Someone posted they did not get an upgrade (on a different sailing) but their friends did even though the friends bid less and originally paid less. This new process is too stressful for me lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This new process is too stressful for me lol Stress is not a strong enough of a word. I still have over a week to go and I'm not sure I will make it. I check every few hours to see how many Haven rooms are left. I think I'll be hitting every bar on day one just to forget this whole process. Hope one of those bars is the Haven Lounge.;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope one of those bars is the Haven Lounge.;p Do what I did - assume your bid will not be accepted and totally buy in to what you have now... then when the email comes it's either "ho hum" or a very nice surprise. I received the latter a few days ago for this Sundays sailing. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maryisme Posted April 6, 2017 #685 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I see that I am in excellent company. I am totally obsessed with the status of my bid. I am too embarrassed to admit how many times a day I check inventory, my ncl profile, my credit card and of course the bidding site. I get some sort of sick joy in playing around with the sliding scale thingy, increasing my bid and then cancelling. Yeah, I am so toasted. Can't wait until next week.

GINNY L Posted April 6, 2017 #689 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I bid on four haven cabins for the April 8th sailing. I did not win anything. Those that were suppose to have been on Summitt for this weekend, I have four custom made magnets just refers to that cruise. Let me know if interested and you can come to my cabin to pick it up. Cabin 12912. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyguy909 Posted April 7, 2017 #693 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Flyguy you are the breakaway? What room did you win with your bid? They gave me 14728 haven spa suite. Was a little worried about being on the starboard side but it's the farthest one forward and people who have been in that suite said they heard nothing from above.

Was a little worried about being on the starboard side but it's the farthest one forward and people who have been in that suite said they heard nothing from above. Would you mind telling me how you bid? We're in a spa mini but are looking at the Haven spa and bid in all the Haven categories. There are a LOT of Haven spas left on our sailing on the Breakaway in early May, and hoping that the fact that it holds 2 not 3-4 is going to deter (or prevent) a lot from bidding on one of them.
