Upsell call. Sunshine

[scooby girl]

Hello all. We currently have a balcony cabin on the sunshine. Category 8C. It's a 5 day cruise. Carnival just called and offered to "upgrade" us to an OS suite on the 7th deck ( I checked, they have quite a few suites available) The price was $550 total. I turned down the offer. Has anyone had any experience with these upsell calls? Can you make a deal & offer less? Has anyone done so? Thanks for any input!

no haggle, they just call the next person on the list. They get a price they can sell that cabin for, your offer is the difference between what you paid and that number.

 

Some deals are better than others, that sounds a bit high, but that probably means you got a great deal on your booking.

 

I just went from an OS to a GS which many people would think wasn't worth it, but many of them have never been in a GS.
