Didn't someone post an email address about this previously? Sold out and/or working the UG bidding and GTY’s. If it’s still available, they may show it again on the website again, when they are finished. What was mentioned, was the offers for a move over were sent by email and they had to respond by email if they wanted to accept it. Problem is, different agents work different ships, so may not help you. IDK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, both times by email, and I responded by email. Both times - NOT requested ... just happened. I thought a previous poster , posted an email address that you could send a message to, letting "them" know you would be very interested in receiving one. maybe not ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voljeep Posted October 2, 2023 Author #13 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Just now, PescadoAmarillo said: I wish you luck. we will prolly take the cruise without 'an offer' - it's just a little 5 day out of PE going to PCay and Grand Turk. But also wouldn't mind taking and applying a 'free cruise and fare back as refundable OBC, and applying it to a cruise on the SUN P in 2024 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall someone posting that the email provided was no longer a valid email. I believe this happened after they started the bidding process.

SCX22 Posted October 2, 2023 #16 Share Posted October 2, 2023 The more reasonable explanation is that yield management is assigning cabins. You don't have a say in whether or not you will be chosen for a move down/move over offer. Not sure what Princess' criteria for those are. The following applies to a single cruise sold as 2 segments. Check each segment individually if cabins are still available. The single cruise sold as 2 segments is capacity controlled. Princess usually blocks availability after final payment on the single long cruise knowing that they might have more last minute takers on the shorter segments. If this is the case, you have to check availability on the shorter segments and see which cabins are showing as available on both segments.

phabric Posted October 3, 2023 #18 Share Posted October 3, 2023 If you have a “no upgrade” on your booking, will we get a Up Bid Offer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless, your TA is one of those that does not allow bidding UG’s. We have ours marked no UG, but once the bidding opens for that cruise, we’ve received offers to bid.

Guest Snaxmuppet Posted October 3, 2023 #20 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Do these "Move over" offers happen in the UK? I have not heard of them before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
