Does that mean they might accept the one that I can’t modify? I had the same issue...on the one it doesn't appear you can modify, click on the Room Type. It is a link (although it doesn't appear as one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DLpl Posted September 12, 2023 #1253 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Yes, vould be. With ours, initially, both of my bids said pending. Later, I could update one...but not the other. A few days later, the one I could modify changed to ' expired'. A week or so after that, the 'pending ' one froze, I couldn't then change my bid...but it still said pending.AKept checking, and about 10 days later, I got the ' congratulations' email saying they had accepted our bid, and had been upgraded.. It is likely they are considering your 'frozen' bid, but looking at earlier posts- there are no guarantees until they actually charge your card and send the email! Keep checking, good luck !

There can be last minute cancellations, plus sometimes people in suites are upgraded to better suites, freeing up their previous suites. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UMDTERPS1 Posted September 14, 2023 #1261 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Ship: Summit Cruise length: 11 nights Sail date: 9/21/23 Captain’s Club Tier: Select (Near Elite) Booked through Celebrity Direct or via TA: Celebrity Direct Current Cabin: Interior - Prime Bid? Yes If Yes- Bidding Details: Cabin Category: Aqua: bid $355 pp. Veranda: bid $155 pp. Oceanview: bid: $105 pp Notification Date: Pending Accepted/Rejected: Waiting contact from Celebrity General comments: Cruise showed very full but I noticed Royal suite, 2 Aqua Class rooms, & 1 OV open up very recently. We were supposed to take this same cruise last year but we moved + my Mother became very ill and we had to cancel. Since we elected cruise care insurance, this cruise is only costing us Sales Tax & Port fees. BTW - this was the only time in the past 12 years that we ever purchased the Insurance. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally we want to get the Aqua Class room but we're scared of being assigned an obstructed view room so not sure if we'll bid... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If accepted they take the additional gratuities and your move up $$s on your Visa card at the same time. Sometimes the IT staff will upgrade you to Premium WiFi if you ask. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
