Would you actually do anything different knowing you had a different room? Worst case you show up at the port and the porters make new luggage tags Maybe I would !! I also understand that something you ordered or are getting due to C&A level will be delivered to your previous cabin #.....And what if I get to the port and have no idea (it's been changed until I get inside the checkin terminal) and have given my old cabin number to the porter...who sorts that out ? ... My luggage ends up being in the hallway of my old cabin location. Just a couple of situations that I thought could possibly happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are good at that. FWIW, half the time my luggage in nowhere near my cabin. Though it is generally in the correct hallway. 😉 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncwmark Posted September 18, 2019 #3653 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Hi All, We are booked in a JS on Symphony leaving on 9/28 and made three royal up bids (GS, OS, and CLS) about 2-3 weeks ago. Today I checked on our bids and the GS and OS bids show as “expired”, while the CLS bid is still “pending”. Does this mean anything? Our credit card has not been charged. Hoping it may be good news, but don’t want to get my hopes up for naught. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise a holic Posted September 18, 2019 #3654 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Basically it means you still are in the running for the CLS. However, until you see the charge go through, it hasn’t happened. Good luck. You may be able to still raise your bid to increase your chances.

Had considered Royal Up for CLS, but would rather book another cruise for that amount. Best of luck (fingers crossed) on your bid. CLS looks amazing!!!

Thats the strange thing... the one bid which remains in a “pending” status is locked and won’t let me adjust the bid amount? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you get the CLS! My DH and I were in one on our last Harmony sailing and it was unbelievable! Two bathrooms was so great! We each could bathe and get ready and the same time! Hope that I can go back to a regular balcony cabin on our next cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scurrymd Posted September 18, 2019 #3663 Share Posted September 18, 2019 The answer may be there, but I haven’t read through all 148 pages. Has anyone successfully upgraded making the minimum bid? Or should I not even bother? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruiselvr04 Posted September 19, 2019 #3671 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Just did our first bid for the second week of a B2B. We have to change cabins anyway and the price seemed right for us. Does the minimum bid ever change and go higher? Is this something you have to keep checking? If so how do I check? Might be a mute point since we bid the max what we felt we’d be comfortable paying. It would be pretty exciting to get a GS as we’ve never booked anything above a JS. it was fun to do and adds some excitement to the wait. I assume we might not find out until the end of our first week on board as it sounds like rejection emails come just a couple of days prior to the sail date.

So excited!! So wonderful! The only negative is that we had a CLS on our last Harmony sailing and it is hard to consider another type of stateroom! Enjoy your cruise!

Interesting, so it sounds like they accepted it, but either did not want to disclose the location, or had not picked the particular stateroom yet.
