Cruising this Sunday on the Vista. Had an inside room on deck 2. Just got a call from the Upsell Fairy offering me a Havana Cabana Balcony for $598 total for 2 and I get to keep my $200 OBC!!

 

I am very happy with this offer and even more excited than I was before the call!!

 

For those who will ask the question.... I am Platinum (just turned in October, 2016) and the Upsell Rep told me she contacts Platinum members with offers first.

Last cruise was the first time I heard from the Upsell Fairy. Has anyone every tried calling the Upsell Fairy to request the option? Did you keep the number?

I have the name and number but not sure it would do any good to call randomly before a sailing. There has to be available inventory.

 

My PVP told me a couple years ago they can mark your reservation if you want to be contacted for upsells.

Not bad! How many days is your cruise?

That's probably true. I booked with a TA this time and I thought the Upsell Fairy might not visit me when I'm without my PVP.

As I understand it the dept will not take calls from people they have not contacted for an upsell offer.

6 nights. Sea days we usually spend in the serenity area and these are repeat ports for us so we expect to get a lot of use from the aft pool area. I had booked this cruise last summer during a sale where we got $200 OBC if paid in full. I used my my credit card points to pay all but about $200. I got to keep my OBC with this up sell so my out of pocket cash for the cruise cost is less than $800. Otherwise, probably would not have taken the offer. My DD is in a very tough grad school program with 19 hours this semester and my work has been crazy so we are both looking forward to relaxing on this cruise.

I got a call yesterday, too, for my cruise on Conquest in April. I got offered to upgrade from our balcony cabin to an Ocean Suite for $200 per person. I took the offer. We've never sailed in a suite before. I'm so freaking excited! I called my daughter to let her know, as she is sailing with me. I kind of made her day!!!

We had a similar offer last September, but you got a better deal. We really enjoy the larger balcony and dressing area. Congratulations!
