davy jones Posted November 7, 2017 #2278 Share Posted November 7, 2017 We're on the Jan 5 sailing Breakaway. When I checked the reservation this morning I didn't see the banner that says lets get you upgraded. I hope this means we were upgraded. We're on the same sailing. I looked and did not see the banner either. Our cabin assignment has not changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nealjr Posted November 7, 2017 #2279 Share Posted November 7, 2017 We're on the same sailing. I looked and did not see the banner either. Our cabin assignment has not changed. Don't get too excited, this happen to me as well and the banner reappeared several days later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgloersen Posted November 7, 2017 #2280 Share Posted November 7, 2017 We're on the same sailing. I looked and did not see the banner either. Our cabin assignment has not changed. For me the banner was gone the yesterday morning (60days out) and i received an email later in the day confirming the upgrade win and that my CC would be charged. That night i logged in and looked at my cabin number and it was updated to the new number. And it really looks like a decent location too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

three2me Posted November 8, 2017 #2283 Share Posted November 8, 2017 I'm on the 11/19 Breakaway sailing and logged into to my NCL and I won our bid we booked an OC Oceanview got assigned an OB on deck #5 and bid on both a ($35pp) balcony and mini suite ($115pp) Both bids were poor level.Wanted the Mini Suite more. We were upgraded to a spa mini suite on deck #14 I wonder will we get access to the thermal spa suites? Or is this something reserved only for those who book Spa Suites without winning the upgrade Bid. Never got an email from NCL but they charged my credit card already.

You will absolutely get access to the thermal spa. You "paid" for the cabin upgrade just like those that booked it to start with. You just happen to have paid a bit less for it than others so.....happy dance time! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipperx Posted November 8, 2017 #2286 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Well we got our upgrades, for both sailings. We had an inside and got a balcony not a bad location for either leg of the cruise. We're happy we bid $100 pp for the the 7 night and $150 pp for the 14 night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newmexicoNita Posted November 8, 2017 #2287 Share Posted November 8, 2017 wow, congrats to all of you. We are now about 48 hours out and still it simply says "pending" I even upped the bid a little yesterday. I will live with what we have. I was not unhappy when we booked, we paid what we thought was all we could, so getting the upgrade would be wonderful, but if not, we are going to have a wonderful 9 days at sea anyway.

Soaperstar Posted November 8, 2017 #2290 Share Posted November 8, 2017 sailing 11/12. Last week won upgrade from balcony to family suite with the minimum bid of $300. Considering it is out of Puerto Rico, 2 months after disaster and low season, they are trying to fill the ship. Different ports and sailing dates will require more aggressive bidding IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hutt1 Posted November 8, 2017 #2293 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Sailing on the Breakaway December 3. We had an aft balcony and we're upgraded to a Haven two bedroom family with balcony on deck 16 yesterday. We are going to miss the balcony space but I think the Haven will be worth it.

newmexicoNita Posted November 8, 2017 #2295 Share Posted November 8, 2017 48 hours out: still no action and still pending. I thought we would hear by now, one way or the other. Guess no news is good news. We are on our way in about an hour. Either I will be surprised or I will be satisfied with what we have. Good luck to all!!!!!!!!!!

texasreb Posted November 8, 2017 #2298 Share Posted November 8, 2017 They did not do any that you know of... or do you have some inside contacts? I had been checking balconies on the booking website. Minis too. Going into the final week there were 10-12 balconies of all kinds left. At 48 hours, 7. Then I left for NOLA. Did not keep track of it. Once onboard I asked guest services if there were any vacant balconies or above ? The reply was "all Oceanview and above have been booked" A few days later I saw the hotel director. One item discussed was ship occupancy. He allowed the same. Perusing the halls. Deck 8 and higher. I did not see any cabins that looked vacant. I even asked some of the stewards.

zlacruising Posted November 8, 2017 #2299 Share Posted November 8, 2017 This isn't an upgrade exactly. Booked balcony on Pearl for Dec. 5-14. It was a guarantee, which I never had before but that was what was left. I was thinking bad location,etc. Well, they upgraded me to a midship balcony. Checked price on other sailing and it was a pretty good deal. I also had my 2 perks. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zlacruising Posted November 8, 2017 #2300 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Texasreb, I was on that cruise. I had an aft and paid a lot for it. I currently have an aft on the Bliss next year for a lot less than this one was. Like $1,000 cheaper!! Go figure.
