My husband was the second passenger listed and was the one that received the offer. My email has always been the primary on all of our cruises so I was surprised it went to him. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked if multiple passengers would get an offer to bid and she said no but we know that information can vary depending on who you ask. I was also curious how it would work if the other party in my group of six (in a two bedroom grand suite) received an offer but I wasn't given a clear answer on that.

We hadn't received an offer yet, so I had him look in his email, and there it was. I've always been the one to receive them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh-oh, how does one change the promotional offers box? I can't figure out how to change account settings but this could be my problem. I would totally book an excursion to RC headquarters to watch how this plays out on a daily basis. I can't square the 1990s style customer facing IT department with what could be a very sophisticated use of data to maximize profits on the inside. Very interesting stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare tennislvr8 Posted February 15, 2019 #1239 Share Posted February 15, 2019 I put our bid on Tuesday for April 13 anthem of the seas. Got an email today it was accepted. We went from a Jr suite to a sky loft suite for an additional $2500 total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got my upgrade bid in too for the same sailing...but unless the people in Royal Loft cancel....I won't be winning anything 😉 Edited February 15, 2019 by dodgestang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ERCruiser Posted February 15, 2019 #1241 Share Posted February 15, 2019 My wife received the email today for our 4/1 IOS sailing. We are presently in a deck 10 aft spacious balcony. Contemplated bidding to upgrade to a 1BR GS, as the extra space would be welcome for our family of 4. Just not sure I want to give up the loungers on the aft balcony. First world problems... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bardlady Posted February 16, 2019 #1242 Share Posted February 16, 2019 I got the email today for my sailing on Sunday (two days out). I put in the minimum bid for the ocean balcony, that I don't honestly expect to go through. But hey, I'm sailing solo in a central park balcony, and that'll be more than adequate anyway. I suspect it's going to be denied though, because I clicked on the link again and it now says "Not eligible for upgrade." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1novascotian Posted February 16, 2019 #1243 Share Posted February 16, 2019 (edited) I got a second email for my upcoming cruise on Allure (03/17). I received an offer back when RoyalUp first came out and decided not to participate. This time *some* of the minimum bids were significantly lower. We are currently in an interior and the first offer had a minimum bid of $135CAD a person for Oceanview. This time it was $70.

Waves2land Posted February 16, 2019 #1245 Share Posted February 16, 2019 we put in a bid for IOS sailing and now when I want to go in to see where our bid is on the “scale” it says the cruise can’t be found. I’m thinking it’s just a glitch as the cruise has not been canceled. Anyone have this experience? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That has been our debate also on 2 upcoming cruises; to give it up for an upgrade, or stay put! Just love that view too much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot recall all the starting bids, but I believe the starting bid to go from our interior to a balcony was $180pp. Not too bad I guess, but we have two connecting rooms so it wouldn't work for us. I got two emails, one for each reservation number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think you can. When either cabin occupant brings up the offer, there’s no separate option to bid. Biker, who just got the offer 75 days out for Ovation.

It would be nice to get it the email but I'm not counting on it. There is still a lot of balcony inventory and the price has dropped significantly in the past week. The balcony GTY is now $438 pp more than we paid for the inside GTY. I'd rather put that towards my bar tab, no package this time. They're going to get my money either way lol.
