I want to see how many cabins per category are remaining. Im looking but cant find that info. Where do they post that during the booking process? Thanks! When you get to the stage where you can choose your actual room, you will see a maximum of 15 available rooms to choose from. If there are fewer than 15 choices, then you know that category is nearly sold out. If the category is in GTY (except for the SailAway options), that means it is likely sold out, but they will let people book a GTY to get at least that category or better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercury Posted August 30, 2019 #3902 Share Posted August 30, 2019 We just upgraded to the Haven on our Baltic cruise. Was cheaper than bidding. Thank-you to those who made the suggestion to keep monitoring the prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeeter195 Posted August 30, 2019 #3903 Share Posted August 30, 2019 On the Escape this Sunday 9/01. At 12:01am this morning I got an email that I was upgraded to a DOS. The best part was I hadn't bid on a DOS only all of the other suite categories. Then at 6:01am I got the oops you are not upgraded we made a mistake email. I figured that there was something wrong and was kind of half waiting for the oops email. As of 9:00 am all of bids are still pending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anotterchaos Posted August 30, 2019 #3905 Share Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) Gem, 9/13, Quebec City to Boston $740 PP from mid ship Balcony to Aft Penthouse. Rm 8130. We're now over Bliss lounge so hopefully I won't regret that! My bid was the lowest you could bid to get from "poor" to "fair" chance. Also bid for an H5, same level. There was no availability when I tried a mock booking so I was pretty amazed to get it! Is my H5 bid automatically now gone? I don't see an option to edit it anymore. z Edited August 30, 2019 by anotterchaos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

time391 Posted September 2, 2019 #3909 Share Posted September 2, 2019 I just thought of something, if I upgrade my CAS comp inside stateroom right now on the Escape using Credit Card points, would that change my bidding options? Can I combine meta upgrades from NCL Credit Card with a CAS comp and attempt to bid for Haven? I have enough for 2 meta upgrades according to the credit card redemption, which would put me up to a balcony. I've never thought about this, but it seems quite logical to combine these things together. Has anyone ever tried this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to meeting you anotter. We too had midship balcony, and bid on a number of suites. Aft penthouses are nice in general, but because of concern about possible noise, I bid very low. Let me know how it is. I bid much higher for two bedroom SC and H4, which we got. Let's look each other up next week and discuss. Lynn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debgreg Posted September 2, 2019 #3911 Share Posted September 2, 2019 60 days out, no email as yet, only thing showing as sold out are the IB rooms we are in 🤔 how many people don’t get the option to bid 🤨 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepath Posted September 2, 2019 #3912 Share Posted September 2, 2019 (edited) I got the offer at 90 days out. My first NCL cruise and booked through a TA. Still waiting to hear back on my bid. Hope you can get an offer. I had an email from NCL and my TA about it, so maybe you could check with your TA.

cliffd64 Posted September 4, 2019 #3919 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Trying the upgrade bid process for the first time... originally booked mid ship balcony on Breakaway 11/23 sailing ... put in offers for three different classes of Haven penthouse at a tick into the fair zone on the meter... offered 850 pp in each case... lets see what happens... 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roxette Posted September 4, 2019 #3920 Share Posted September 4, 2019 (edited) Got a bid accepted. 115 euros/person from Inside garanty to Mid ship balcony on the Getaway, 9 days baltic, departing tomorrow. The upgrade bid mail came four days prior to the cruise, The bid was accepted yesterday. It was a last minute booking, booked it six days before sailing. With just a short train ride, 50 minutes, from port, it is going to be very convinient. The bid was cosidered as poor, the red colour. So I am happy.

spanishguy1970 Posted September 4, 2019 #3921 Share Posted September 4, 2019 We are still waiting for our bid to be accepted or denied but we are 45 days out. However, today i checked and our bids went from very poor range to fair and good range and still lots of availability so still hopeful 🙂 . We are on the NCL Getaway for 19 days in October.

Firepath Posted September 4, 2019 #3922 Share Posted September 4, 2019 (edited) Interesting that the strength of the bids changes. I just looked and my poor bid is now mid Fair. I'll have to watch that. Thanks for the info. We are also 45 days out but not on the Getaway. Edited September 4, 2019 by Firepath 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikel1733 Posted September 5, 2019 #3923 Share Posted September 5, 2019 (edited) We are booked in an inside room code IF. I've made a bid which is in the mid fair zone. My question is.....if you are bidding to move from an inside room to a balcony, is it likely you will get one of the obstructed balcony rooms with a bid?

With price drops a guaranty balcony is only $120 more than we paid for the inside room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
