George C Posted October 11, 2017 #9 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Very cool upsell, well worth the extra money, we love GS perks which of course you get plus OS is a much larger cooler suite, congrats, would love to have same upsell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare wilmingtech Posted October 11, 2017 #10 Share Posted October 11, 2017 It was $700 total and we paid $2448 total forour JS Dang - So Jealous. Prices look so good when you don't have 4 kids. We paid more than you paid all together to get into a D3 and a D8 on the 7th floor of the Anthem in the cheapest week of the year :) and that was with 2 of the kids free! -Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlmbar Posted October 11, 2017 Author #13 Share Posted October 11, 2017 That original price was a already good deal on a JS!! :) Great deal all the way around! i KNOW! We were so happy with that JS price and certainly worth adding $700. A regular balcony was going for the same price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigMattT Posted October 11, 2017 #17 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Seriously? Semantics. It did not cost much and it is definitely an upgrade Uhh... called and asked to pay for a better cabin versus awarded a better cabin for free... are two completely different things. When I see "upgrade fairy", I'm interested in finding out why RCI deviated from their normal operating model (i.e, upsells). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Cruisegirl6 Posted October 11, 2017 #18 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I am sorry but that call was to occupy a higher cost cabin that they didn't sell and they hoped you would pay all that extra money so they have a better chance in selling your room which is less costly....I don't see it as a bonus at all, this same thing happened to me two years ago, happened to be they wanted $500 more and I told them that is not a bargain because if I wanted a Junior Suite at the time I booked my sailing, it was the very same cost at that time for that cabin. Now, if they even asked for $100-$200 maybe thats ok, but $500 more for a 4 night cruise......maybe 7 nights it may be ok, but 4! :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had js that I got for a very low price because I booked early. What we are paying for an OS is LESS than a JS was going for. Talk about a buzz kill. I am sorry I posted. OK semantics, I said upgrade fairy and got slammed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
