SwimCarrie Posted May 16, 2023 #1 Share Posted May 16, 2023 I'm curious if anyone else has had this experience: I was hemming and hawing about placing an upgrade bid because I was worried about where it would be on the ship if my offer was accepted, so I just finally booked the category I was okay with and paid. From inside to Oceanview obstructed. I went in to see what the bids look like now and the 3 cabin categories available didn't change. Bummer. I would have still bid for a balcony (assuming it was cheaper since I just paid more). Has anyone seen this yet? Is there anyone go even ask about it? Thanks!

SCX22 Posted May 17, 2023 #2 Share Posted May 17, 2023 How long ago did you pay for the oceanview obstructed? It takes a few days for the bidding website to update your current stateroom and update the categories you can bid on. I booked a guaranteed interior last month on the Royal Princess. The algorithm auto-assigned me a mini-suite 2 weeks before the sail date. A few days later, I was sent more bid to upgrade e-mails--this time for Club Class, forward facing mini-suite, and suites. Didn't take the bait though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
