Anyone else been ‘upgraded’ to the first deck?!?!

It is possible to link bookings so that HAL knows that the group wishes to sit at the same dinner table and have cabins near each other. The trick is to book directly with HAL rather than trying to get a better deal with some third party internet travel agency.

 

HAL is right. The problem was caused by booking through a third party, in this case Travelocity. Had Blondddeee booked through HAL/PCC then there would probably have been no problem linking the bookings, or at least the PCC would have explained the uncertain situation with a guarantee booking.

This is proof that there is no way to make everyone happy. There is nothing wrong with your disappointment, but HAL at least tried, there is no way they could have known why you wanted the cabin on 7. Of course, that is where the no-upgrades option comes in, and working with a human travel agent rather than an online site. When you do get a hold of Travelocity, the customer service rep may not even know there is such an option, or even how to fix it.. they don't specialize, they just get the next call in the cue.

 

Don't feel claustrophobic on deck 1. You are above the water, and it is no different than any other deck on the ship.
