Dallas Simmons Fam

Thank you, looking forward to meeting you!! The suite is towards the front but not facing forward, 11018. We would have been very happy in our BA also. I already think the balcony is the height of luxury. :) I bid because of the prospect of being able to put our kids to bed in the 2nd bedroom and have adult time. Usually on vacation we have to go to bed at the same time the kids do, meaning no later than 9pm!

We just got back from moving from BC to SC. Our daughter enjoyed having her “own room” which also included a TV. As part of suite perks-you get free access to the latest on demand movies including kid movies as well. Also-you have the chance to eat both breakfast and dinner in a specialty dining room, which was always very quiet and relaxing and lastly, received priority embankment and departure which was very nice to do with an ansy ten year old.

Do you recall the number they called from? I never answer unless I know who is calling. Thanks for the info! Enjoy your cruise!

Sorry-I didn’t save that info. Call was out of Florida main office as I recall.

If you didnt bid on it, then how did you get it? I have a balc on a 7 day sailing, and the very bottom allowed bid on the 2 bdrm ste is $600 pp. Sounds like you got a good deal!

I got a call 11/30 from a sales rep from NCL letting me know our offer had not been accepted for the aft balcony but they did have the SC “one room only-have to act fast” for the max bid we had made for another upgrade. I had to pay immediately upon accepting the upgrade and called husband later (who was estatic). We have sailed on NCL and are bronze members. Also-i am the type of person who calls NCL a few times before the cruise to see if fares are lower since we typically book early. I had called in May 2017 and got $400 knocked off my original booking so perhaps

I am flagged by the sales reps for better or worse :)

Ship : Norwegian Dawn

Destination: Southern Carribean

Number of Days: 7

Embarkation: 12/3/2017

Original Stateroom: Balcony (BC)

Upgraded Stateroom: two bedroom family suite (SC)

Accepted Bid: $320 per person

Notes: Booked cruise online March 2017. We had prepaid all charges, so no extra taxes. Also-our previous promotion was 3rd passenger free-so we did not have to pay 320 for our daughter. We did not bid on this room at all-had bid on Aft balcony.

We had made a few different bids for upgrades for an early December booking from our original balcony room. I got a call from a random number earlier this week from an NCL rep-glad I picked up the call. We didn’t “win” any of the bids we had placed, but got a chance to upgrade to another room at our highest bid from other rooms in a category (SC) that would never had been in our budget. Very excited for my family!
