teachtocruis Posted January 17, 2019 #1 Share Posted January 17, 2019 We just received and offer for an upsell on the Royal from an inside to a deluxe balcony for $119 per person or a standard balcony for $139 per person. We don't mind insides, as we rather cruise more often. But wondering if anyone thought that was a good deal or not. Or should we hold out for a better offer or skip it altogether. We are on the Royal's first sailing to Mexico at the end of March if that makes any difference to anyone's opinion. Thank You, Kayla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
memoak Posted January 17, 2019 #2 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I don't find that to be such a great deal - I would take a pass. I also would question why the deluxe balcony is less than the standard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GottaLuvCruising Posted January 18, 2019 #5 Share Posted January 18, 2019 If that is for a week cruise (or longer,) I'd jump at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neverbeenhere Posted January 18, 2019 #8 Share Posted January 18, 2019 I might save the cash for eating in a specialty restaurant a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeseclan Posted January 18, 2019 #9 Share Posted January 18, 2019 I would take the deluxe balcony in a heart beat. I like being able to sit out there!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teachtocruis Posted January 18, 2019 Author #11 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Thanks for the opinions and suggestions! We took the standard. Reason being that the deluxe is in the front of the ship making the balcony unusable while at sea due to winds. If we're going to be in a balcony we want to go out on it at all times of day and night. Thsnks again, Kayla 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(And I think it was a good decision to take the standard - an unusable balcony is worthless.) Make sure you have breakfast out there one morning!

long cruiser Posted January 18, 2019 #14 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Once again,I would not take aqn upsell.Ask for an upgrade. long cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDRebel Posted January 18, 2019 #15 Share Posted January 18, 2019 If the upsell is to L- or M-101-104, it is a larger room with a huge balcony. I would jump on that in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the wind really isn't an issue.....we always try to book those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
