Cruise a holic Posted November 21, 2019 #4126 Share Posted November 21, 2019 We actually bid on a penthouse on Celebrity this past March- we were told we could even be notified onboard. Actually we were never officially notified.We didn't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie411 Posted December 1, 2019 #4127 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Bid on a junior suite $335 and ultra spacious spacious with larger balcony for $320. Didnt get either. This was for the harmony of the seas Dec 1-9. We currently have a superior OV balcony on deck 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are probably better off, that incremental price for the spacious balcony was pricey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
broadwaycam Posted December 4, 2019 #4129 Share Posted December 4, 2019 I am just curious how soon did you find out your royal up bid was accepted or declined after you put it in? I know they say they can let you know anytime up until the day before the cruise but wonder if anyone has found out sooner then that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting to here- I doubt we will get the upgrade. We are two people current in a crown loft suite- which we love- but I got bitten by the "bug" and bid on a two bedroom aqua theatre suite.

Biker19 Posted December 5, 2019 #4132 Share Posted December 5, 2019 One interesting data point: I never got an email to bid, but was able to place one by going directly to the Royal Up side, despite being more than 30 days out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irishfam7 Posted December 5, 2019 #4133 Share Posted December 5, 2019 We received an upgrade option to bid as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aduntu Posted December 5, 2019 #4134 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I was solo in a Boardwalk balcony on Oasis sailing Sunday (12/8). Bid $200 total for an ocean view balcony last Thursday, 10 days out. Got notified today, four days out, that it was accepted. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradski Posted December 5, 2019 #4135 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I received my accepted email about 2 weeks out on navigator. Minimum bid on a basic view room. I did watch and see what rooms weren't filled yet when I bid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did watch and see what rooms weren't filled yet when I bid. And what did you find? I ask because my cruise fluctuates between sold out suites to entirely booked. Still haven't heard back yet. Less than two weeks out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irishfam7 Posted December 5, 2019 #4137 Share Posted December 5, 2019 How can you tell whether the suites are full or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradski Posted December 5, 2019 #4138 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Are there upgrades room available? If there aren't I cant imagine you have a chance. When mine was accepted there were almost 10 of the view rooms available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've made my peace with it. 😏✌🏽 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do a mock booking- best to do on a "big box" website as they sometimes show more suites available then the RCCL line.n But try both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
