Islandbuoy Posted December 20, 2021 #1 Share Posted December 20, 2021 If a move up bid is accepted and you don't like the specific cabin you get ---can you either A:request a different cabin within the class or B: cancel your bid and retain your original cabin? Concerned about getting a bad cabin location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted December 20, 2021 #2 Share Posted December 20, 2021 A, yes, you can try, but no guarantee of results. B, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D C Posted December 20, 2021 #3 Share Posted December 20, 2021 If you booked through a TA, there have been posts where people have contacted their TA and moved to a different room in the same category. Though this is supposedly not permitted by the move up process, so ymmv. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you No, you keep what you had. If you move to a suite, you add access to suite venues (e.g., Luminae) but don't get automatically bumped to higher internet, drinks, etc that comes with the suite if you had lower surf, classic, etc. packages, and you'll pay slightly more per day for tips. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a very important point. Many people don't realize this, and end up bidding more for a suite, thinking they get all those perks, than they would have had they originally booked that same suite (and had they done that, they would in fact get those perks). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

as3369 Posted December 21, 2021 #14 Share Posted December 21, 2021 The only thing with Royal on the Edge is that the balcony is only 72 sq ft.. and that bothers me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stones902 Posted December 21, 2021 #15 Share Posted December 21, 2021 I bid a few days ago on upgrades from from our Concierge to a suite. Placed a couple of bids, one of which expired (not accepted) the other is still pending. I would like to modify my pending bid which is allowed but I am unsure of how to go about this. It doesn't seem clear on the X website. Any help is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you see a cancel or modify button, you can click on the modify button and change your bid. However I am going to assume, based on your saying one is expired, you are at the stage where you cannot make changes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were on the Celebrity Flora (Galapagos) and our cruising friends asked to see the available upgrades once on board. They saw the Royal Suite and Penthouse suite. They negotiated $2,500 pp for Penthouse Suite with the Hotel Director. precruise price was $19k pp 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We upgraded from sky to penthouse on our July edge cruise, very long but narrow balcony with no real outdoor space , other than that a amazing suite . I just booked a aft sky suite on beyond for November got a great deal on a aft corner sky suite, large balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
