UKCruiser_2008 Posted September 29, 2008 #1 Share Posted September 29, 2008 On our cruise, it appears that: 1. all of the 8a cabins have sold out because they are offering a "free upgrade" deal to 8c for anyone who now buys an 8a cabin. 2. the price for this cabin type has gone up since I booked a guarantee 8a cabin. Am I right in thinking that we have - more than likely - been "placed" in an 8a cabin on their computer and they are now offeing the 8c cabin upgrade to any new customers who come along, becuse there are plenty of these cabins left? I would be happy with the 8a, but was quietly keeping my fingers crossed that we would be moved up a deck so that we do not end up over the all-night disco. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken076 Posted September 29, 2008 #2 Share Posted September 29, 2008 You realy can't predict these cabin assignments. The odds equally good that you haven't yet been assigned and that the 8a's are all gone. Relax and wait for the assignment!!! ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Charlie Posted September 29, 2008 #3 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Ken is correct. Your guarantee is a "wild card" that the cruise line can use to fill in wherever they want (8A or above) to optimize the sale of cabin inventory. Even if you find a cabin assigned when you check your reservation, it may change before the sailing. Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted September 29, 2008 #4 Share Posted September 29, 2008 When you look on the computer and pretend to book this cruise are there still 8As left to book without the free upgrade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArkieCruiser Posted September 29, 2008 #5 Share Posted September 29, 2008 If you booked trough a PVP with Carniaval call and tell them you would like to be considered for an upgrade if one comes available. They will do their best to put your name more at the top. If you booked and selected your cabin you will not be put in the hopper for an upgrade.

A PVP's influence on upgrades is exactly the same as yours. They are in a totally different dept. and are completely ignored by the dept. doing the upgrades. If a PVP tells you different, their next lie will be at least # 2 because you should know they told you #1. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
