Rare Dgoddess61 Posted December 1, 2021 #451 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I'm really happy for those of you who received upgrades on my sailing 12/26 out of NOLA on Breakaway. I also am super sad that we bid in good range and not had a bid accepted going from Aft Balcony to all Havens except owners suites. Hopefully that changes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully that changes From what I have been seeing they upgrade about 7 days out. If your sailing is 12/26 they haven't started to process those yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard they could let you know as late as 2 days before. I went and printed out my new luggage tags and check-in documents right away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have they been offered the chance to bid on upgrades or actually been upgraded and paid the amount they bid? - I'm on BA on Dec 19 and no one on that ship (AFAIK) has had an upgrade processed so I don't imagine they would just skip to a week in the future... plus the comments here have been pretty consistent - Upgrades processed for the cruise departing on the Sunday start to be offered from the Monday before (from 6 days in advance)... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, i agree with this statement. We're on a cruise 12/22, and I don't expect to see an upgrade until around the 16-17 date range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check for a hold on your credit card, that is often times the first signal that they are processing an upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kewbrook Posted December 2, 2021 #459 Share Posted December 2, 2021 It says Processing!!! I am so excited. This is for the Dawn on 12/8. Now just to find out where I am getting placed. Still impatiently waiting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now just to find out where I am getting placed. Still impatiently waiting. If you wrote down your bids you can tell from the amount your CC is charged which category you won. Usually long before you get the official word from NCL. Or do you already know the category and are waiting for the actual cabin number?

I had an interior so anything was an improvement, well almost anything. I now have my room assignment. Not the best balcony but I am sure looking forward to it. For those keeping track I bid on the low side of the scale. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lionkingrichard Posted December 2, 2021 #462 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Hello everyone. Could you please tell me about when the invite to bid goes out, please. It used to be 80 days I think? Is it now around 60 or what ever the paid in full date is? I have paid in full. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does this mean? Hmmm, sorry as that's most likely, yours aren't "processing" now for an upgrade, as you are close to that 48 hours embarkation timeline, where acceptance and "unable to upgrade" are finalized, with the official notices being pushed out via email shortly. Chances are slim if there is a last minute addition to more upgrade rooms being available, but odds against that. Please do update us, one way or another, if you can & wish to. Enjoy the cruise, regardless - safe, happy & healthy sailing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does this mean? If you can still modify your bid, you can try upping a couple bids by a few bucks as a last ditch effort. I've read in a couple instances that works last minute. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does this mean? Hi - we are seeing the same for our 12/5 Encore cruise. All 4 of our bids still show pending. Fingers crossed we both get our upgrades! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
