1ANGELCAT Posted October 24, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 24, 2016 I had posted last week that I had received my guarantee for the Oosterdam crossing next week . I had booked an HH guarantee and only recd an H. Looking online over the weekend , I found an offer for a Cat F for $100.00 more than I paid for the HH and much less than the H is listed for. My great TA called HAL and asked about Upgrade to the Cat F guarantee. Bottom line thanks goes to Alisha/ Alicia in HAL reservations , who came back the answer they would give me the Upgrade to the Cat F for [emoji3][emoji3][emoji3] FREE ! Now I'm back to checking the luggage tags [emoji3] Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkacruiser Posted October 24, 2016 #2 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Congratulations! We don't hear about many "free" upgrades very often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ANGELCAT Posted October 24, 2016 Author #3 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Thanks. It might have been that my agent mentioned that I'm turning 5 star during the sailing and have another cruise booked 3 weeks after I return from this cruise[emoji3] Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

expectGREATthings Posted October 24, 2016 #7 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Great job of keeping yourself informed on what was available and then going for it. Sounds to me like you've earned a perk or two with the upcoming jump to five star mariner status. I hope you have a fantastic time. Congratulations on all counts.

john2003 Posted October 25, 2016 #11 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Had a similar situation a few years ago. The only bad experience with guarantees. HAL fixed it for us as well. Always pays to pay attention!! Sent from my LG-H812 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare ski ww Posted October 25, 2016 #13 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Congratulations on the up grade. It pays to keep checking, it never hurts to ask all then can do is say no. We once got an up grade from inside to a balcony on a TA at no cost because of a price drop we were offered either OBC or the balcony. Bon Voyage.
