Thank you so much for this info, I appreciate it!

Hello,

If I book a concierge category (CA) on NCL Joy, will I get double latitude points? I know it is specifically for Haven, Suite or special offers, but Concierge class seems to be unique to just the Joy, at least in my bit of limited research. Thank you in advance for any info!

There was so much family onboard the Bliss TA maiden voyage, I have no doubt the Encore will be the same. They had to move Friends of Dorothy from Maltings to the observation lounge on night 3, because the other venue was too small for the large number of people. It was an incredible ship and a great time. Encore should be just as amazing!

Nice! We went on the Escape in April out of FL, and met a lot of people as well. Harmony is definitely on the bucket list of ships we'd like to sail as well. First Transatlantic we did was in 2007 on Disney, it was amazing, and have wanted to do another TA ever since. :cool:

We are! Second transatlantic, first on NCL

Hi, obviously I know every cruise is or could have a different answer. We have only sailed NCL twice, once on Star which didn't have Haven, and once on Escape. We got the email offer to upsell to Haven several times in the weeks before sailing. We have a mini suite booked on Epic for next Spring and are thinking about downgrading to an inside cabin, in hopes of an upsell offer to Haven before that cruise. How likely is it that there will be that offer? Is it pretty regular for most cruises that aren't sold out? I do realize if I book inside, I better be prepared to sail inside, and I get that nobody can predict which cruises will sell out. I was wondering from more frequent NCL cruisers if they get the Haven upsell offers for most of their sailings or not. Thanks in advance for any info.

OP what sail date and price was your offer, if you don't mind saying? We got a second email about 4/23 up sell, which was $250 cheaper for two of the three categories offered, than it was a week or two ago, when we got the first email. Still hoping for slightly less, as we are already in spa mini suite, so don't want to pay an additional $1000pp to upgrade to spa haven

Interesting, thanks for the tip. I hadn't read anywhere on here about the negotiating tactic. I know I only have 3 posts, but I've been lurking since fall all over these Escape boards. Thanks for the input!

We got the upsell email today offering Haven Courtyard Penthouse or Haven Spa Suite for $1000 pp, or 2 bedroom for $1250 per person. Seems a bit high being that we are already booked in spa mini suite. From reading these boards, I'm guessing we could do better by waiting a bit and calling in later, for April 23 sailing. Obviously I know there are no guarantees, but does it seem unreasonable to think it may possible to get into Haven for $500 per person by waiting a bit longer?

Yes, same emails for my April 23 cruise. Just called, she said she didn't know what was going on, looks like I have to book onboard, etc.
