3StepDam44 Posted November 2, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Hello, We submitted our Upgrade Bid to Yacht Club a few weeks ago and have had no response yet. Just wondered if anyone on this Sailing has received confirmation for successful Upgrade? In Limbo at the moment and I keep checking App, Emails etc. etc. Just want to know one way or the other.😏 The Cruise is for my 60th, so I have Fingers Crossed for Upgrade. Thank you in advance. xxx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tierun Posted November 2, 2023 #2 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Do a dummy booking to see if there are any YC cabins available for the sailing. You just have to play the waiting game. The dummy booking will let you know if there’s even a possibility of getting the upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3StepDam44 Posted November 2, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Hi Tierun, I will give that a go. Thank you. xx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3StepDam44 Posted November 4, 2023 Author #4 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Hi, Well I tried a Dummy Booking and couldn't see much on MSC Website. Switched to Travel Agent, and there were a few Balcony Suites available in YC. We only placed a Bid for Inside. All hope seems to be gone.😒 Hey ho, we still have a Balcony Cabin on a lovely new Ship, but have been excited at mere prospect of YC for weeks. Happy Sailing.

K, We are on at the moment and a couple we spoke to yesterday only got upgraded via the bid just a few days before sailing so keep the faith. They went from Bella to YC! The ship is indeed beautiful.

Our bid was accepted. We were assigned a YC deluxe balcony suite. I did sweeten the bid a bit after my initial bid. All in all we got a tremendous bargain.

3StepDam44 Posted November 7, 2023 Author #12 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Hi, I keep pinching myself, hope it's not just the Cabin without the YC Perks!! I am waiting to get the Final Tickets etc. from my TA. It looks like it is a Balcony as well. Beyond excited. These things never happen to us. Happy Sailing. (Must start packing!!).

You are safe,if you have a successful bid for an upgrade to Aurea or YC you get the full experience, not just the cabin. Enjoy the YC, it will be difficult to go back... 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stocksy82 Posted November 7, 2023 #14 Share Posted November 7, 2023 (edited) We have just received confirmation too and I think it's a Deluxe Suite! Does the app just stay showing Bella until you get on board? Edited November 7, 2023 by Stocksy82 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
