Bidders Remorse anyone?

Am I the only one who bids in an upgrade and then after a period of time rethinks it and decides I’m fine with what I have? My mind literally goes to all the other things I could do with that money!

I bid them removed my bid. This was a last minute cruise not my main vacation. I Would always bid if longer than 7 day cruise as would be more likely to spend more time in the cabin and the extra space would be welcome. Also its usually better value on a longer cruise.

I've only cruised a few times but when I shop for a cruise I know what I'd prefer and what would be good enough. I also know what each of those are worth to me. First cruise (Carnival) was a balcony , second (NCL) was an oceanview. Third (Carnival) was an interior with a too good to pass up upgrade to an accessible with an obstructed window view. If I can get a better experience at a price point that makes sense to me then I'll take it. Otherwise just be happy with your original choice.

This is my first time bidding on a upgrade. The last time we cruised on Norwegian they still had the upgrade hot line and I did call and accept a price on a Haven two bedroom Suite. It was great and we never regretted it.

 

This cruise coming up next week I would like the Haven again, but could not justify the price for a 7 day cruise. So I have a great balcony room and a bid in on what I would be comfortable spending for the Haven upgrade. We would love the upgrade, but will be just as happy with our first choice.

That is exactly how I will feel for my August cruise, if I get invite to bid, I will bid what I'm comfortable with if I don't get it my mini suite will be just fine

Definitely! Removed my bids for the Escape in December because it was cheaper to upgrade right out instead of bidding their minimums.

I adjust my bid three times a day to give the NCL algorithm a workout.
