a3593 Posted April 18, 2022 #1 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I have a wonderful PVP so I know the benefit of working with one for booking, but what abut upgrades? I haven't received any offers yet, and I'm looking to upgrade from interior to balcony. Is it beneficial to call the PVP or is there a better way to go about getting upgrades at a potential discount?

Pvp told me she has no authority to give a discount. No secret sauce menu. She can only give carnival prices. Mine was so good she also taught new pvps. ..so I believe her. Dont bother to ask. She cant. Check your offers. She can help if you cant find them. Any upgrade to a booking will also be posted there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nlktx49 Posted April 18, 2022 #3 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I've been cruising on Carnival since 2008 - in all that time I've have one upgrade/upsell offer. One. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pe4all Posted April 18, 2022 #4 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I keep an eye on prices. If I see a cabin open that I like - and the upgrade price is reasonable - I call my wonderful pvp and she snags it. I went from regular balcony on Horizon to Havana aft vista wrap for $400 - a steal on top of what I had originally paid for my cabin. Then again - capacity on ships are increasing (or are back to 100%) so those upgrade offers may not be as good, or even offered too often. Otherwise, I have never gotten an upgrade/upsell offer from Carnival. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are dangling up for an Upsell call, book a connecting stateroom (door between cabins) early during high demand times. Upsell calls go out when it benefits the cruise line and they need/want your current cabin to resell to someone else at a higher price. Connecting cabins can be in demand for families and you might get an upsell call so Carnival can rebook it. However, you could also end up sailing in a connecting cabin. PVPS don't have a inside scoop and will be just as surprised as you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
