alwalaska Posted October 22, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 22, 2022 I'm new to the upgrade bidding. The price says per person, is that for the entire length of the cruise or per day? I know there is a thread on accepted bids, but any quesses on a good place to start? Should I see how many rooms are left in each category? For example, we're in an interior. Upgrade to ocean view is listed at a min of $50, defaults to $150, and goes up to $250. I can bid on oceanview, balcony, and club balcony. Thanks.

Take your bid and multiply by 2. $75 bid = $150 charged to your credit card if you are successful. Good Luck! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russiamomm Posted October 22, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 22, 2022 The bid is for the entire trip and per person for two people. In other words, if you bid $50 it will cost $100, regardless of how many are in the room. If you go into a category with a higher daily service charge, that will be added as well. Same for any increase in insurance for the better room. Hope that helps! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no difference in daily service charge for any of your bids. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotownVoice Posted October 22, 2022 #5 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Also note that if you are using NCL’s travel insurance, you will automatically be charged the difference in cost for a policy for that stateroom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare www3traveler Posted October 22, 2022 #7 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Word of warning, if your bid is accepted you will be assigned a cabin and you will not have any say in the location of the upgraded cabin. Sometimes the location is okay and other times not. I always book the exact cabin and location I want and not bid on anything else. I learned the hard way, that bidding for an upgrade is not always a good idea. What you consider an upgrade and what NCL considers an upgrade could easily be to different thoughts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
