Is it typical when the sailing gets this close that it just stops letting you in? I just checked mine too for Feb 29 Symphony cruise and I’m getting the same message. I was even on this morning checking it and it was fine but not now 🤷🏻♀️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerginator Posted February 21, 2020 #4753 Share Posted February 21, 2020 I was able to successfully log in to Royal Up just now and my bid is still pending, so I guess it's just a website issue 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure if this means rejection or acceptance is coming! I got this message today as well as I wanted to check my bid on a Jr. Suite. So in an effort to investigate, I ended up checking my cruise and seeing that there was indeed a Jr. Suite available, even though the site would then tell me it wasn't available when I clicked on it. I called RCCL and ended up talking to a rep that said, "Yes, the suite is available" and they let me upgrade (i.e., pay the difference). Thing is, paying the difference ended up being the same as what my bid had been if it had been accepted, so I don't know what their methodology is. When I asked the rep why it said I wasn't "eligible" anymore, he said it was because there wasn't any inventory to bid on...as I was booking said inventory. LOL? Hope this info is helpful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canmilitarywife Posted February 21, 2020 #4756 Share Posted February 21, 2020 I had a GTY balcony, did royal up for a more spacious balcony. 30days out today and got my room assignment so I guess I didn’t win the royal up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did bid the max at $200 pp. However total is still less then what balconies were originally going for. Let me put it this way. We originally booked an ocean view at the same total cost that we are now paying for a balcony. We had a $400 price reduction several months before final payment which we caught. Who hoo! Even more excited now! That’s awesome! Congrats 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next hurdle is if we win the Villa Suite we need to transfer guests from another room to ours and it doesn't look like that is possible without cancelling their cruise and giving up the funds...

I havent gone back and looked at the Royal up "rules" but Im almost 100 pct sure if bid is won, they dont allow any add ons in room that was won with bid? May want to check just to be sure.

From what I’ve read on here, you cannot add guests to the room. So you could just have them stay with you in that room and keep the other while absorbing the cost of the empty room.

When our kids were teens, we'd book them into an interior cabin across the hall from our cabin. I'd always get an extra key for their cabin. They never knew when Mom would check compliance with curfew or check if they were keeping their cabin tidy. Imagine my shock when I used my key one afternoon to check their cabin, turned on the light...and discovered one of my high school sons in bed with a college girl.... When I had A TALK WITH HIM, he told me that my instructions to the kids were not to go into anyone else's cabin. I had apparently neglected to add that no one should be invited into their cabin, never mind the other stuff 😬. Yeah...that kid is now a lawyer LOL.

About a year ago there was some weird pricing, (and perhaps because of the 150% single supplement) it was cheaper to book a single JS and a single interior than to book the JS for the two of us. We told the cabin attendant of the interior that we would not use the cabin, we left his gratuity in place. Then we let the JS attendant know there would be two in the cabin and added extra gratuity. No problem at all. Really no different than if two passengers hook up and use one cabin for a night or the cruise. 😀 M but the issue isn’t the sleeping arrangements, it is the Star Class benefits. They wouldn’t get Genie service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Tree_skier Posted February 21, 2020 #4771 Share Posted February 21, 2020 I just received my Royal Up offer for our May 5 Honolulu to Vancouver on Radiance. That's 75 days out! That seems quite early. We are in 6D-GTY and were offered the Spacious Oceanview Balcony for $100 min. per person and JS for $400 per person. We'll be happy with any balcony so I just dont see spending the money for a JS on Radiance that doesn't include the double points. Just not enough benefits to justify a minimum of $800 on. Also, I don't really think there is much difference between the regular balcony and the spacious balcony. The spec says 25 sq. ft. I'm sure we could tell the difference if we compared them side by side but other than that I think i'd regret throwing the money at it. We haven't been assigned a cabin yet so, once we are, if I hate the location maybe I'll bid but not likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mishapsandmissy Posted February 22, 2020 #4774 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Was RoyalUp’d today for our cruise on Oasis sailing In two days-Sunday, Feb 23. Started out in a Grand Suite for 4 of us a few doors down from the rest of our family that are staying in a 2 bedroom Grand Suite. Bid the minimum on several cabins and won with $950 for a Crown Loft! We’re thrilled as we stayed in one for honeymoon and the kids have always begged to stay in one! Sorry, fam! See ya in the lounge, haha! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
