Never, been on over 10 MSC cruises and never received an email about upgrade. I doubt if I will get one this time considering my Feb 26th - Mar. 5th cruise has been thrown into a Guarantee!

Rare styles27 Posted January 17, 2022 #3 Share Posted January 17, 2022 In order to receive the email to bid on an upgrade you need to be sure you check off the box that you’re willing to receive email promotional offers from MSC This option is shown when booking your cruise online (not sure how you would do it if you use a TA.) You could check your preferences when you login to your MSC acct to see if there’s an option to do that. I received the offer to upgrade about a week after I made final payment on my Divina November cruise and the day after I booked my Seashore cruise (but that one I booked during the full payment required time) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT1962 Posted January 17, 2022 #4 Share Posted January 17, 2022 I got several emails offering upgrades for my 1/23 7 night Meraviglia cruise from a Fantastica Balcony to a whirlpool suite, Yacht Club inside or Yacht Club Suite. Prices were from around $ 300 - $ 1,100, if I recall. I was not interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Months in advance the offer came and accepted once 10 days in advance and 2nd time 4 days in advance. Both were from Bella to Yacht club Grand suite on Seashore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fla Mike Posted January 18, 2022 #6 Share Posted January 18, 2022 I've gotten two offers so far for our Feb 13 cruise, one last week and one about a week after I booked in November 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't received anything either. I wonder if maybe they are not sending them to us Canadians? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dexddd Posted January 18, 2022 #9 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Yes. As reported several times, first was a savings of $100. Then resend closer to sailing and it was like $1000 more than direct booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an important point for any cruise line's upgrade program: it's always worth checking the cost to just call and do a straightforward upgrade before bidding because sometimes you can end up paying more than that upgrade if you bid too much.

I got offers for both weeks of the one 14-day cruise you and I are scheduled for. I wonder if it's because of the length of your cruise. Wouldn't surprise me if MSC can only think a week at a time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
