upgrade myself online?

[new_cruiser_75]

Booked a cruise on the Panorama for February.  Booked an inside room on deck 9 but noticed that a 4J opened up on deck 7 for just $200 more. Put a 24 hour hold on it.  Is there anyway to modify our current booking to this new room online or would I have to call?  Are they likely to let me make the change (paying the difference of course)?

 

Thanks for your help

You'll have to call, but they can make the change for you.  I've done that a lot.  Lol 🙂

Good luck with your self up sell!

I'd call, especially since you may be after the final payment.  Your previous room will have to be cancelled, and it's better to do that with a Carnival rep making an upgrade.

Update: Called in and it was super simple, BUT what she ended up doing was canceling our old booking and rebooking in the new room.  This meant that we had to recheck-in, re-set our preferences, and rebook our excursions.  Not quite as simple as I was hoping, but super excited for the new room (went from an inside to a corner 4J which is huge for just an additional $188 😄)

Good for you!

 

You didn't lose any onboard credit, did you?

[new_cruiser_75]

Didn't have any to begin with, but with the specials going on should get $50.  Plan on looking into it in a bit.

How did you know the 4J opened up?

Probably did a mock booking to see what 4Js were available.

Yep!  Wasn't actually looking for one per say, but wanted to keep an eye out on all the better rooms and found one and snagged it with a 24 hour hold!  Had to run it past my SO since he's the one actually paying for the cruise and he's just as excited 😎
