JamesIowa Posted August 6 #1 Share Posted August 6 (edited) I’ve received an upgrade invitation on every NCL cruise I’ve taken since the program started in 2015 (batting about .250). This time around booked 2 solo balconies (cat BT) on separate reservations for an upcoming joy cruise (30nov24) and neither res received an invitation to upgrade, the offer is not available on my NCL or through the app (app says “reservation is not eligible at this time”). We’re at 116 days, so past final payment. Given this a relatively new category (afaik) wondered if the lack of upgrade opportunity was due to the solo category? Realize correlation ≠ causation but wanted to see if others sailing in this category have received the upgrade offer. btw ship does not seem very full, lots of suites/haven available.

Asawi Posted August 6 #2 Share Posted August 6 I think it's just too early. Try again when below 110 days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like I got the invites more quickly in the past, iirc it was usually right after fp, but your reply makes more sense than NCL discriminating against one specific cabin category.

Rare grouchomarx Posted August 6 #5 Share Posted August 6 (edited) I was invited to bid on an upgrade for my last two solo NCL bookings. I ended up withdrawing the bids for a few reasons but I got the offer in my email. ETA first one was solo balcony, second one was solo inside.

renebfl Posted August 7 #9 Share Posted August 7 I just got one yesterday for Thanksgiving cruise. I am in solo cabin, inside. The invitation says offer is for 2 so I assume I would have to pay double price to get an upgrade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
