bruzin_for_a_cruizin Posted July 21, 2018 #1 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Just got the phone call (and pulled the trigger) to upgrade our oceanview balcony to a Junior Suite. The leading suite on the starboard side hump (8636) was available for CAD$730 so I jumped on it. I know we do not get the double C&A points because it isn't a full-fare suite. However, does anyone know if we will have access to the Coastal Kitchen? Seems like a much better dining experience than the MDR... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellemiche Posted July 21, 2018 #2 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Yes you will have access to Coastal Kitchen for dinner! Make your reservations the first night for the rest of the week. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RocketMan275 Posted July 21, 2018 #4 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Be aware that your access to Coastal Kitchens if for dinner only. Not lunch or breakfast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruzin_for_a_cruizin Posted July 21, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Junior suites do get the double points, Typically, yes. I did ask the agent directly about that, though. Since this suite is heavily discounted, we do not get the double points for this cruise. Thanks all for the affirmations. I'm thinking it'll be Coastal Kitchen for dinner most nights, if I can convince my wife and daughter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not...it is my understanding that if you PAY for the upgrade, hence UPSELL, that you get the points...I would call and double check/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted July 21, 2018 #7 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Why not...it is my understanding that if you PAY for the upgrade, hence UPSELL, that you get the points...I would call and double check/ Royal changed the rules a while back. Now you don't get the extra points unless you pay the going rate for the upgrade. A reduced price upgrade does not quality for extra points.

Rare tennislvr8 Posted July 22, 2018 #8 Share Posted July 22, 2018 I upgraded in Dec from a balcony to a Jr suite for $250 total and double C&A points, we paid no where near the going rate for the Jr suite.
