Who Wants An Upsell?

[geoherb]

I disagree about a balcony being a necessity on Alaskan cruises. Much of the time, it's too cold to enjoy it. We were fortunate to receive an upgrade from an obstructed view guarantee to a cabin with a balcony on our last Alaskan cruise. It was great since we were at the bow of the ship and had a view of the glaciers even when the captain turned the ship to give each side a view. But if we had had one of the balcony cabins on the side or at the aft, we would have missed out on the view much of the time.

 

We enjoy having a balcony more on warm cruises. We enjoy breakfast on the balcony, drinks before dinner, and the Ultimate Balcony Dinner.

I do truly enjoy a balcony for AK cruising. In GB I'd be out on Promenade if the cabin was on the back side. Then when the ship turns I go back to the balcony order a pot of coffee from room service and enjoy. Just stepping out in the mornings and taking in the view is priceless.

Nice!!!!

 

Yes it was. The problem now is my DH wants a suite every time. Good luck with that ;)

What a great view!!!! If I weren't travel solo, then the the additional cost for the balcony would not bother me. With paying for flights, double occupancy, and a bunch of fabulous shore excursions, this in the first time in my cry cruise history I have ever done anything smaller than a balcony cabin. I am blessed to live in Ft. Lauderdale, where the port is in my backyard, and I don't have to worry about all of these additional fees like flights. Its ok. I am just excited to be going to Alaska to enjiy the breath taking scenery.

I have never had an up sell from any cruise line - is this for US customers only or frequent Princess cruisers?

[Jeter02]

In the email received, It did mention the offer was for past passengers.

I'm at Elite loyalty level but I've never had an upsell :( the upsell fairy needs to fly across the water .....

This was the first one I have ever received before. I also just heard about upsells maybe 2 or 3 weeks ago on here.

We have only sailed 7 times - all with Princess - but have received two free upgrades and three upsell offers. We took two of the upsell offers but turned down one as we had booked C752 and wanted that specific cabin. :)
