As an aside, having received email offering ( imo, expensive upgrade offers), is there ever a subsequent email offering upgrades at a lower cost if the uptake is low?

We are on Onward March 11. We received an upgrade offer email today. I am staggered at what they are asking. We are in a CC suite currently.

I have bitten the bullet and booked a flight going out the day before the cruise. The downside is it meant going out one one airline and back on a different one. It meant having to pay a ridiculous price for the flights, about 3 time the “normal “ price. However, it gives us comfort and at end of the day, it’s only the kid’s inheritance that’s affected!

As an experienced cruiser, I kinda know the answer to my question. I guess I’m just looking for comfort and reassurance! We have now booked the Onward out of Gran Canaria on 11 March. We would prefer to go out the day before but the flights from Scotland don’t work out. We can fly out on the day with a scheduled arrival time into Gran Canaria at 14.55. The ship is due to depart at 8pm. Do you think that works OK?

It was £800 per cabin, not pp!

We have been away from this forum for a few years for obvious reasons. Long time experienced cruisers. We have sailed Azamara 3 times previously. Last Azamara cruise was 2015. Then, a a previous cruiser, you could register for a paid upgrade. we were offered an upgrade from a balcony to owners suite on our Greek islands cruise for £800 which we jumped at and had the most fantastic experience. Am I reading the forum correctly that it doesn’t work that way anymore?
