Does Minimum Bid Change?

[Lovelylady226]

Right now it would only save me $30 total if my bid were accepted because the price of the cruise has gone down so drastically. I bid the MINIMUM. Does it ever go down?

From my limited experience, no; I suspect that they would lose money that way.

 

For instance: I was booked in an Aft Haven Pentouse with Master (H6); it was a minimum $500pp upgrade bid for a 2-bedroom Family Villa (H4). The price of the H4 dropped dramatically, but the minimum upgrade bid has not. Because of the drop in price, I simply called my TA, and I upgraded to an H4 for about $400 total. Had I done the upgrade bid (and been successful), I would have been furious.

 

 

In fact, since since upgrading, my bidding options have not changed.

At this point, if you want the upgrade, I might simply call NCL or your TA and pay the listed price; you’ll be out that $30 bucks, but you’ll be able to select your room.

I watched this very closely a few weeks ago and the minimum never did go down despite the fares dropping.

In my experience and that of several friends and family, where cabin prices have fallen within the 90-day final payment period NCL would not let us upgrade by simply paying the difference to the reduced fare.
