Nursemc Posted January 8, 2020 #1 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Just checking if anyone knows the answer to this. Might be a silly question! It looks like the Norwegian getaway 7 night NOLA sailing on 26 Jan 20 is sold out as you can no longer hook online through NCL website, so does that mean anyone that bidded on the upgrade offer won’t get it?

mike6702rau Posted January 10, 2020 #2 Share Posted January 10, 2020 I’m booked on the 1/26 Epic cruise. I originally booked an inside state room then placed a bid in November for a balcony. The cruise showed sold out about ten days ago and it still shows sold out. On Monday I received an email that my bid was accepted and I’m in an aft balcony. Don’t know how that works?.....So yes, you can get an upgrade after they show sold out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mugtech Posted January 10, 2020 #3 Share Posted January 10, 2020 They will show sold out sometimes when they have many gty cabins which have not yet been assigned. They rather have you bid for an upgrade than assign it to a gty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nursemc Posted January 10, 2020 Author #4 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Great there is still hope so! That all makes sense. Thanks for the replies. I have another query I just looked at my upgrade bid and this message is beside it “Pricing above reflects a discount. Act fast! Promotion valid until 17 Jan 2020“. Anyone know what I do about this?? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arjay9 Posted January 10, 2020 #7 Share Posted January 10, 2020 A cruise can sell out for one of two reasons. The first one would (obviously) be if they were sold out of cabins. But there is also a passenger maximum, which can be reached if alot of people have 3 or 4 ppl in their rooms, and this would leave some cabins empty, allowing for some upgrades to still be available. Good luck, hope you get your upgrade 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langham1865 Posted January 10, 2020 #8 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Also, typically people who book last minute are looking for fire sales. So they probably want to take care of the people who paid full price and are willing to pay more for upgrade before selling the last few cabins at below market sale prices... revenue maximization and all... They may also have a group that hasn't been fully loaded into the system and might release a groups unsold cabins last minute. So don't give up, you still could have your bid accepted 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgartin Posted January 10, 2020 #9 Share Posted January 10, 2020 So,,, I have a question about upgrades. On the Norwegian website, where do you go to bid on upgrades? I put in a bid for the Getaway on March 1, and I would like to revise it. I have looked everywhere. Maybe somebody can help me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look for the original email offer(s) to bid, the confirmation email that said your bid(s) has been accepted ... yada, yad - both of them has the URL link to review, modify and/or cancel your bid, up to the 48 hours cutoff/notification. If you are logged into your MyNCL dot com account with the reservation pulled up, the pop-up/banner message link is also there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgartin Posted January 10, 2020 #11 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Sadly, I cannot find it in my e-mail or my husbands. I also cannot find it in my messages. Maybe I dreamed it!!! Thanks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooops, it could be a system clitch or error, TGIF. Are you 100% sure you are booked, payment in full on the GA sailing March 1, 2020 ? Is the reservation/booking there, perhaps your hubby directly upgraded instead ... planning to surprise you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
