Royal Up

[bigeagle12]

When does bidding open up?  I have seen 30, 45, and 60 days prior. 

[Ashland]

This seems to vary so you never know. One of mine was 90 days out.

[mets07]

In a recent experience, 75 days prior.

[BecciBoo]

This last week it was 58 days.  But it's beginning to look like a no-go.  Ship's almost full up.  Still keeping fingers crossed though.

And none are wrong. It all depends.

We are sailing on Sept 9 and just received the email to bid on upgrades this morning so just under 60 days out.

We are currently booked in a GTY Oceanview Balcony.  It was a GTY cabin and we have been assigned a very nice cabin midship on Deck 8.  Click on the link below and those are our options and minimum bid options.

The RoyalUp link has disappeared from my 8-20-23 sailing on Mariner.

I just got royal up offers for our Septemeber cruise, looks like about 75 days out. I'm sure it varies based on how many available cabins they have....

[MrMarc]

There is a problem with Royal Up right now.  The only way to see or change your bids is from the original email link.  The web page is not working and it has disappeared from the cruise planner.  They are working on it.  The bids have not been lost.

You should also be able to go directly to RU: Cruise Room Upgrades - Royal Up | Royal Caribbean Cruises

That is not working for the cruise that I tried.

In the past I was able to use this link long before I got an email.

I just tried this for a 9/10 sailing and got a message to "Please ensure my sailing is within the next 30 days"

[MrMarc]

My cruise is in 31 days but when I try to go to move up- it states 30 days.  However my cruise is booked and I doubt I will get any upgrade.

We just received RU offers for our Oct. 8 sailing on Harmony.

You get that error for varied reasons, including not being able to bid at all.

Why would I not be eligible to bid?  Not with a big box store?  Did use a TA.  Is it possible that since I am in a suite, no star class suites are available?

Inventory is not a criterion for being able to bid - a TA which doesn't participate would be.

I will send a text to my TA.  Never happened before- but who knows with this TA.  

Thanks
