Haven't heard of anything other than balcony upgrades for that cruise. You could check with plusgrade to see if your offer is pending, processing or expired.

Rare tetleytea Posted July 8, 2022 #1656 Share Posted July 8, 2022 I just got my upgrade offer email and I'm struggling with how much I am willing to pay to upgrade to Haven or Owners. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in the same boat. What is the minimum you got for the Haven upgrade. I like the place where my booked cabin is located so hard to justify so much more money for the upgrade although I would love to try the haven.

On the Getaway from October 22-29, 2022 (7-day Eastern Caribbean from Port Canaveral), the ranges, at least for me, are: The Haven Aft-Facing Penthouse with Master Bedroom and Balcony (HA) $760-$2500 The Haven Aft-Facing Penthouse with Master Bedroom & Large Balcony (H7) $760-$2500 The Haven 2-Bedroom Family Villa with Balcony (H6) $1000-$2850 The Haven Deluxe Owner's Suite with Balcony (H3) $1500-$3000 The Haven Deluxe Owner's Suite with Large Balcony (H2) $1600-$3100 Honestly, I don't know if those bids are higher/lower depending on your currently booked cabin category. It makes sense to me that, if you're already in the Haven, your bid range to upgrade to a penthouse should be less than mine from a club balcony suite. But maybe that's not the case, I don't know.

Well if you're in the same boat, I'm not going to tell you. 😛 Really, though, I'm getting $1300 per person before my bid meter reaches yellow. And I don't think I'm willing to go up to $1300. Seems all the yellow are about 60% of full-price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows we may actually be "in the same boat." I'm going on the Alaska Encore (July 24). I am seeing $1200 pp for the most min bid in "Haven proper" and that is $2400 more than I want to spend. I would love to try the Haven one day down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare tetleytea Posted July 8, 2022 #1661 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Not the same boat. Our max bids are not even close. But that is good information so I know whether we are getting a good deal. Evidently, you are being offered a better one than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could be different depending on the "available haven cabin" or due to what kind of cabin the bidder is upgrading from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mom surprised us and treated for the cruise so I put in bid to for the Owners Suite hoping to surprise them. If you are able, try for the Haven Courtyard. It's a wonderful experience!

Or are they just different by sailing? e.g. If I were to bid from inside to balcony it says min is $100pp, but meanwhile I saw above someone bid $80. Thx I am curious about this as well… anyone who knows more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare tetleytea Posted July 10, 2022 #1667 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Will bids be accepted in order to backfill people in higher categories who tested COVID positive? Or is that process basically all over 48 hours before the cruise? The question's moot after August 1st, but it's not August 1st yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just upgraded from a club balcony to a penthouse with large balcony on the Encore for $2500. Not bidding, just paid for it. Just curious what the bids were going for.

Interesting that the aft balconies are less. We’re on the 10 day cruise when yours ends. Have not seen any offers yet. We’re booked in a regular aft balcony now and I would only bid on an aft Haven.

And whether our bidding process figures into that at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
