Rare 4cats4me Posted October 5, 2011 #51 Share Posted October 5, 2011 They did that for us, but our upgrade was only $299 per person. Same deal...from an Emerald Mini to a Penthouse suite. I thought it was a great deal. I'm not sure I'd feel the same way about $699. Just to give you something else to consider...the Penthouse suite on the Golden had a pillowtop mattress. Best sleep I've had on Princess cruise. I enjoyed my upgrade on Princess several years ago to a full suite from a very middle of the road category, but if they're not selling out cabins then they should just continue to upgrade all of us. Yet another of their money making schemes. I know, I know, all the other cruise lines already charge for upgrades, I know that for a fact, but Princess was special, until they started acting up recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alas though, I wwas checking the website a couple of days ago and all suites and minis showed sold out.....:(:(:( Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whimsy Posted October 5, 2011 #53 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I wish the upgrade fairy would sprinkle some of that generous fairy dust on us for my 50th birthday cruise. I am bringing 18 other people along, you would think she would like to show some good PR to get them all to want to book again! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morriscats Posted October 5, 2011 #58 Share Posted October 5, 2011 When Princess started the upsell last week for the 5 PH suites for $699. each I did call and tell them we would pass but if they didn't sell all of them we would give up our emerald mini for one. Yesterday they showed all booked. There are still 2 OS on Sun deck. Looks like "free" upgrades will be a thing of the past? We are still happy with our mini.
