dcipjr Posted April 22, 2018 #4202 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Last week, people were hearing about Escape bids for 4/22 being processed on the Wednesday prior. So, maybe look to hear Tuesday? I'm on the Escape for 4/29, so I’m thinking I will hear Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grest Posted April 22, 2018 #4203 Share Posted April 22, 2018 at first, I thought that this bidding thing would be another fine adventure...now the waiting is not so much fun...and I'm still 21 days out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DREAMGIRL2012 Posted April 22, 2018 #4204 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Still waiting to hear on GA sailing 4/29. This waiting is killing me. We will be happy no matter what. Just happy to be on another cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexddd Posted April 22, 2018 #4205 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Got mine Tuesday 4/17 for 4/22 cruise on GA, if that helps. From BC to H4 for $1,380PP, probably bid too much but really wanted it! IMO that is a pretty decent price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted April 22, 2018 #4206 Share Posted April 22, 2018 (edited) Last week ... Escape bids for 4/22 being processed on the Wednesday prior ... on the Escape for 4/29, so I’m thinking I will hear Wednesday. One of my BIL/SIL bidded from Inside to Balcony, scored a Large Balcony about 2 weeks ago, their successful offer was higher in the fair/good range, so ... if the bid is better than "expected" that NCL won't refuse, they will "seize" it quick, as I wrote earlier. As long as it isn't 101% sold out, I would continue be patient about it ... look for the "interim" status change of "processing" - NOT pending as always. Good luck ! Still in "Pending" status for the Gem 4/28 sailing. 6 days out and nuthin! Me too!! Hang in here, fellow Roll Call members ... we are all on the same ship, looking closely at inventory shifts & current unsold stateroom availability, patience is a virtue ... nail-biting, I know. We had *** bids from 2 different staterooms pending too. Maybe we might see an interim status change tomorrow afternoon or Tuesday morning, which (in the past) usually finalized as "upgraded" within 12 to 24 hours, even before the extra "charges" are posted to the credic card (has an alert setup on it, previously) The Haven & full suite categories aren't gone completely, even the mini's (oversized balconies, no exra perks) are still showing "choice" of room #'s. As a matter of fact, just booked another stateroom for others in our extended family to sail along with us last minute on this past Saturday, 7 days out ... finished online check-in and this morning, they showed the option/offer to "Let's Get You Upgraded" when logged into the MyNCL account (but, no email invite "send" yet) ... minimum bid for Mini Suite is $50 (up to $500) x2 only (even when there's 3 or 4 in the original stateroom.) *** Now, 3 sets of bids from 3 different staterooms. I wouldn't worry or get nervous until late on Wednesday or Thursday morning if it's still "nothing" quiet to move the "slider" up a bit ... since the cutoff would be 3 PM on Thursday (2 days or 48 hours before sailing) to get notified if the bids were not accepted. Not printing final eDocs and eLuggage tags until we are 99.75% certain if there will be a new stateroom assignment for all 3 staterooms.

DuckTollerFans Posted April 22, 2018 #4207 Share Posted April 22, 2018 even the mini's (oversized balconies, no exra perks) are still showing "choice" of room #'s. Oh! That is encouraging. Our "Poor" bid might just make it after all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drew69 Posted April 22, 2018 #4208 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Our bid from a minisuite to a H5 was accepted 2 weeks ago for the May 20 Breakaway cruise. Original minisuite was $1999/person with UBP, UDP, $100OBC, gratuities, and no tax/port charges as we booked during the tax free promo last year. Bid of $600/person-$1200 total - lowest bid allowed was accepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug R. Posted April 23, 2018 #4213 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Does anybody know whether they ever send another e-mail after the first one? Meaning, if you don't bid the first time but suites remain unsold later, do they e-mail again? Sent from my iPhone using Forums If you sign on to the NCL website and then onto MY NCL, the opening page will ask you if you want to bid on an upgrade as long as the offer is open, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njkate Posted April 23, 2018 #4214 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Just curious as they accept bids to higher priced staterooms, what do they do with inside, ocean-view cabins now vacated? Sell them at slashed prices? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
