Congratulations to you too! Is it okay if I ask how much the upsell fairy charges for a move from OV to Penthouse Suite? My next cruise is in December. I hope they call me!

Hey Vivian! Sounds like you got a great deal!!! Keep watching the rates for our January one but seems like it just keeps going up. I did upgrade from interior on deck two to a balcony on deck 10 for about $500 total for the 4 of us.

Have a great time on the Ecstacy & hope to see you in January.

Is there a number one can call to make sure Carnival knows that we would be open to an upsell?

We're on that same cruise. You should join the roll call.

Can you tell me more about your situation? How many in your cabin, when did you book, how many cruises have you taken in the past with Carnival, etc?

I'm just trying to figure out how they decide who gets the call first. I've been toying with a balcony upgrade for quite some time and have called my PVP several times, as well as the generic 800 number, asking for them to search all available rates and open balconies.

Just wondering why you got it and I didn't
