Captain’s Club ‘one category cabin upgrade’ question

[mhlcanada]

Is it possible to purchase a guaranteed veranda stateroom and request for a prime veranda or deluxe veranda stateroom through the cabin upgrade Captain’s Club benefits?

[wrk2cruise]

No.  There is no 1 category upgrade with GTY rates.  The prime and deluxe categories are not available for 1 category upgrade anyway.  See blue chart.

Our simple understanding has always been if we book for example an A1 cabin, we’ll get it at the price of an A2 cabin. However, it is nice to see you can now book an aft-facing C1 cabin at the C2 price. That wasn’t the case prior to this recent change.

Good to know about the C1.

Unfortunately you still can’t do that. On S class the aft C1’s are now SC (Sunset Concierge) which are excluded. On M class there are the 2-3 aft accessible C1’s but that’s it.

I knew there had to be a catch. That was too good of a deal! 😂

Yea,  C1 is now sorta what a C2 cabin used to be.  All the "special" cabins have been moved to categories which 1) can be priced much higher and 2) don't qualify for the 1 category upgrade.
