Tr1v1alCru1ser Posted 10 hours ago #51 Share Posted 10 hours ago We got an email from O yesterday offering us a bid option on an upcoming cruise. Unlikely that we’ll get it, as the cabins offered are all waitlisted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWantToLiveOverTheSea Posted 8 hours ago #52 Share Posted 8 hours ago I'm curious how the whole thing works. Obviously it depends upon what their inventory is. But for those who have received offers to bid, were you invited to bid on a particular room/suite category, or multiple categories? And can you raise the bid later? And when do you find out if you're the winner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S4POPO Posted 8 hours ago #53 Share Posted 8 hours ago I like this development. I'm all for anything that adds options for consumers. I've never used the bidding process for a cruise, but I have been successful upgrading to the "big front seat" on Spirit flights (often for less than reserving a window seat in the back).

Rare mlmdaisy Posted 6 hours ago #54 Share Posted 6 hours ago Again, no bidding for my cruise, but a few months before it, my TA tells me that it's only $150 pp to move from inside to ocean view, guaranteed. For 11 days, we'll probably do it. I know, from steerage to steerage plus. My standards are well below most here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare ORV Posted 5 hours ago #56 Share Posted 5 hours ago Has anyone considered that the waitlisted rooms are on purpose in order to test out the new bidding process? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
