Treasure Hunter Posted June 23, 2023 #1 Share Posted June 23, 2023 We are in a mini suite on the Emerald September New England cruise. We were offered a free balcony and upgraded to a mini ( the highest they would let us go). This week I received an upgrade offer. I bid on club class mini ( highest bid $265 a person) and penthouse, vista and premium suites ( weak offers). Has anyone received an upgrade as we are already getting a nice discount?

Rare Rick&Jeannie Posted June 23, 2023 #2 Share Posted June 23, 2023 A couple we travel with recently had a casino booking and they were upgraded from interior to a balcony...but I *think* they had to pay for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We always upgrade from whatever free cabin we have to a full suite. You can always upgrade if you are willing to pay extra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare iamaqt2 Posted June 23, 2023 #4 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Yes. In the 5 cruises I've done since the upgrade process was rolled out, I've bid on upgrades 3 times. One cruise was completely sold out so no upgrade on that one. But 2 others were accepted. Both times for the minimum bid. I was going from inside to balcony though, so YMMV.

Rare roxievegas Posted June 23, 2023 #5 Share Posted June 23, 2023 we woud upgrade at the guest services on arriving on the ship before they started the bidding program. We had a free balcony and would paid $280 the first time to upgrade to mini suite, second time $300. Now the bidding, we have paid $300 to go from balcony to mini suite. Then last time paid $80 to go from balcony to deluxe balcony. we currently have a bid for $300 to go to a mini suite. Put in the bid on day 85 and we leave in 37 days and haven't heard anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
