When is NCL sending out emails to bid for an upgrade?

[qsz06]

I know on my previous cruises, NCL sent out the email for Upgrade Advantage bids around 80 days before sailing.

Have they changed that schedule? I am on the Epic sailing 12/12/2021, purchased directly with NCL and have not received anything.

I spoke with NCL yesterday and was told invitation for upgrade will be sent 55 days before sailing.  (this was for my sailing 12/26/21)

No bids until after final payment date.

I'm on the Getaway on 11/24, and I think my husband received an upgrade e-mail within the last week, and we just crossed the 60 day mark on 9/24, so you might get yours in a couple weeks.

We’re at 55 days and still no bid email offer nor anyone in my roll call group 

 

Hoping it’s any day now 😜

We bid today on our upcoming 11/27 cruise. The confirmation email said that we will hear from them between 14 and 1 day before sailing.

 

We have won many "pre-covid" bids and have learned first by checking the AMEX website (several times the new charge went through a couple of months ahead of sailing), then a few days later we would get the congratulations letter from NCL (always exciting news!). 

 

Anyways, super smart program as we would have never known about the treat that The Haven is..... and now we are spoiled rotten and can't cruise any other way. Best of luck to everyone.

We got our email 55 days prior to cruise on the Encore.

Thanks for all the replies. I'm 2 weeks away from the 55 day mark.

Booked last minute, so never received an email...but there's a notice and link on my Manage My Booking on the NCL site.

Great news.

Question for you. I assume you bid on the Haven again.  What are the lowest bids for each Haven category?  Or are all the lowest bids the same amounts on the sliding scale?

Hi! 

The lowest bids, "POOR" that I know are here:

Deluxe Owners Suite= $750 and up 

2 BR Family Villa (H5 and H6)= $400 and up

Aft Villas (HB AND HC)= $200 and up

These are all per person (only first two in cabin pay though)
