Rotterdam 12/3/17 sailing

For the third time in 3 weeks I have been offered the opportunity to purchase an upgrade on the 12/3 sailing on the Rotterdam. Is this an indication that Holland is having problems selling out this ship? I have been following the post regarding post-dry dock and I certainly hope the water issues have been resolved. (Fingers crossed)

 

We got an offer from the Casino back in June, making this trip a no brainer. Prices were for Guarantee stateroom. I have no problem waiting for my assignment. Every time I have booked a guarantee we have been upgraded, and with exception of once, we have been given great rooms and have been happy.

 

Do you think by ignoring the upgrade offers we are somehow telling Holland we are really not interested in upgrading? I will be fine if they don't, but upgrades are always nice. We are booked n an interior (MM) and all upgrade offers are for porthole/obstructed OV and lanais. Nothing for a better interior stateroom.

It is my understanding that HAL only offers upsells (paid upgrades) to higher categories (like Insides to oceanviews, balconies, etc) and not within the category. So, that is why you are not seeing offers for better insides. Normally, with a guarantee, you will just be upgraded for free to the best available cabin.

Will you let us know if you received your cabin assignment yet? Must have by now, right? Did you make out pretty well as you were hoping?

 

Have a wonderful cruise!

 

Thank you.
