So I get a RU email and we currently have an inside cabin via a casino offer. I get 5-6 categories offered which (I think) includes two other insides (Promenade view and spacious), a couple OV (mmm I think spacious, ultra spacious and/or panoramic) and possibly a balcony. Forgive my memory I'm old.
I check the availability on the cruise and not only is it the most expensive starting average (date wise), but all balconies are sold out. To boot, I think the lowest starting bid (it's a 5 nt cruise to BDA) is $25?
Almost none of that makes sense to me. Not only am I not expecting to win any of them, but I wonder if the algorithm considers originally paid vs current pricing etc etc for the passenger. I have to believe it's offered to everyone in the same category regardless of what was originally paid.
No, I don't expect anyone to know for sure, but I'd like to hear your theories.
