voljeep Posted November 29, 2018 #5 Share Posted November 29, 2018 We would have had to turn it down as we don't do the shower/tub combo anymore... guess we may never see club class dining either...oh, well but, OP, congrats on the upgrade and not an upsell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a long cruise and a lot of sea days, the space really helps. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike45LC Posted November 29, 2018 #7 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I am sorry that you got this upgrade -- you will now have to pay extra for every future cruise, because once you experience the extra space in the cabin and the bathroom, you will never be happy with the balcony cabin again! Since the first time we did the mini, my wife refuses to sail in anything but a mini! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been upgraded to Haven on NCL and I am putting my foot down on sailing with them again to save the daughters college fund Back to plain old Balcony ( I need the fresh air) on the Majestic later. Will certainly feel like a downgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkacruiser Posted November 29, 2018 #11 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Congratulations on your good fortune! Princess seems to be more generous than HAL in offering no cost upgrades. I have had some reasonably priced upsells on HAL, but never a no cost one. I did receive a no cost upgrade from a low deck veranda cabin on Royal Princess to a mini-suite on Riviera Deck on my New Year's cruise up-coming.

Since the first time we did the mini, my wife refuses to sail in anything but a mini! We went from a suite in December (after a great upsell on my birthday cruise) to a regular balcony cabin in February to an inside cabin in September. It's possible to go back even if you'll miss some of the experience of the higher categories of cabins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise2End Posted November 30, 2018 #14 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Fantastic...so happy for you. We are still waiting for a cabin assignment for our cruise to SA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diver2014 Posted November 30, 2018 #15 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Oooohhhhh…...I wish Princess would offer us an upgrade to a mini suite from our 'premium balcony' for next May. We have 9 ports in 12 days with excursions and I could sure use that bath tub to soak in. We just got off the Crown Princess on Caribe deck and while we loved the spacious balcony, I had to jaunt up to the hot tubs to soothe aching muscles. A bath tub would have been so nice.

I guess you will need to hold out for a full suite . You can have CC dining and a separate shower and tub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
