dcsam Posted September 19, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 19, 2016 We booked our February Baja cruise with a large, wholesale warehouse agency. We booked a balcony. It appears the balconies are all booked up now. So, what are the chances they'll be offering the paid upgrades - less or more of a chance? And would we be contacted directly from Azamara or will it have to go through the wholesaler? They're not good about maintaining communication, and I'd hate to lose the opportunity simply because I booked using that national warehouse chain.

Your TA will probably be contacted with paid upgrades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandma Cruising Posted September 19, 2016 #3 Share Posted September 19, 2016 I agree, as I understand it, Azamara contact your TA. Maybe a good idea to warn your TA a few days ahead of 4 weeks before the cruise start date. Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The chance comes from how many suites they have left by the time they start looking at upgrades. Typically this takes place three to four weeks before your cruise. If there are no N1 or N2 categories left they may offer you a larger Suite if they are still available, but these will cost more than the $398 normal upgrade fee. Factor in when you applied and what LCV level you are too. As the previous poster said the request if it comes will be done via your travel partner.

We booked our cruise (August. 29) with a big warehouse agency and was offered an upgrade through our TA about 1 month before we sailed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
