Was that for the Victory sailing 3/8?

Yes it was. I didn't read your first post before I responded initially but now that I read you are leaving on Saturday and you asked about which sailing we are on, I assume we are on the same cruise? Sorry about mentioning our upsell price.

For the first time, we did not book early saver for this cruise and the prices have just gone down and down. I finally had to force myself to stop checking the fare viewer!! :eek:

I try to remember that I was very happy with the price we paid when we booked and try not to think about the "what ifs". So looking forward to a great cruise!

We received our first call last week for our cruise this Saturday. The offer was $340.00 for a move from a balcony to an ocean suite. When I looked at the current prices it did not seem like a great offer, as prices have dropped since final payment. As I was considering it I mentioned that and she asked me to hold while she took another look and she came back with a total of $140.00. I happily took that offer!

I would not have thought to ask for a better rate but if I receive another upsell call I will definitely ask. Excited for our first suite. :)

Just off the Victory yesterday and we did not have to show our credit card.

Hope it's the same for you.

I'm wondering about your time dining. We went with 6pm seating. Our service was hit and miss, with a few bad services. Dinner usually lasted until 7:45pm. The family comedy show went from 7:30-8pm, so we were only able to make it for the end. I was thinking about your time dining for next time but I don't know if that would help with the comedy show which was my kiddos (9 and 12) favourite entertainment. Would you recommend your time dining?

Hi, I am just jumping in here about Your Time dining and the family comedy shows. We were on the Liberty the same time as the OP. You can easily do Your Time dining and make it in time to the early comedy show if you don't mind eating early. For us it was worth it as the comedy shows are one of our kids' favourite activities. We would be at the dining room at 5:45 to 6:00 and always made it to the comedy show in plenty of time to get a good seat (ie 7:15 or so) for the 7:30 show. One night the service was a bit slower and we said we were hoping to get to the comedy show and our servers brought dessert out in about 3 minutes.

Our only issue was that on elegant night we made sure we got to the dining room right at 5:45 because we thought it might be really busy, but the room was still practically empty and the service was super fast and we found that we didn't enjoy elegant night as much. We were in and out in about an hour.

We ate earlier than usual on this cruise but I think it kept us from pigging out in the mid to late afternoon, because we knew we would be eating early and we wanted to save room!
