garycarla Posted September 21, 2008 #2 Share Posted September 21, 2008 The ship normally is full by time you get to the pier. If you want a higher level room, you need to PAY for it in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahvch Posted September 21, 2008 #3 Share Posted September 21, 2008 I have never asked at the pier but you can call you PCC and ask... They may be able to help you out. I know I passed on the number to an agent that offered me an UPSELL and the person I passed it on to was able to get an upsell also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachchick Posted September 21, 2008 #4 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Extremely unlikely. If that's all it took, everyone would do it. NCL prefers to do upsells to fill high level cabins and suites in advance of the cruise date. That way they get more revenue. They are quite stingy with free upgrades, partly because cruising is so popular now that they rarely have any trouble filling the ships. beachchick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

time2cruise1 Posted September 21, 2008 #6 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Anybody have luck asking for an upgrade at embarkation? We have a BA GTY. Booking a BA GTY you have a ~99.9% chance of ending up in a BA. Book a BC or BA GTY and you could end up in a BA. The only reason to book a BA GTY is if the price was far better then selecting your own or if that is all that was offered at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
