firefly333 Posted January 13, 2009 #10 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I would check his countdown clock. (Would be my first guess) Most of us have signatures blocked to enable faster loading of pages and easier to read, so if someone doesnt say which ship, I'm often scratching my head too.

maxamuus Posted January 14, 2009 #13 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I am taking the very same cruise in May. Wonder if that means they are having a hard time filling it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hues of blues Posted January 14, 2009 #14 Share Posted January 14, 2009 We just got a call also but not quite as good of an offer. We are currently on the spa deck on Victory. The offer was 504.00 more to go to a suite ( 252.pp) not that great of an offer so we passed.:( For 100.00 pp ,I would have jumped on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G'ma Posted January 14, 2009 #20 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Went from a 4A interior cabin on the Rivera deck, to an 8E balcony room on the Panorama deck. All for a cool $100 extra a person. Me - 1 Carnival - 0 Booyah. You'll never go back once you've had a balcony. Good marketing by Carnival, fer sure. Have a great time and enjoy! By the way, if you pay for it, it's not an upgrade.....Upgrades are free. You have received an upsell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clayhabitat Posted January 14, 2009 #21 Share Posted January 14, 2009 We also got a call from Carnival to upgrade from interior to an extended balcony on the same deck for $75 pp. We have never even had an oceanview before so we took it. We sail in 5 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
