teddie Posted March 14 #1 Share Posted March 14 (edited) So, this morning, I received the Royal Up email. My bid from a JS to GS with large balcony on the Anthem was accepted (I bid the lowest $$ amount). WOOT! Questions: 1. I sail in 3 days. Do I get updated luggage tags? None seen yet. 2. I see I get Voom. Do I cancel my previous paid order or will it come off my folio automatically? 3. I just cancelled all my MTD reservations. When I board, do I go to Coastal Kitchen to reserve dinners? Can I reserve on the app? Can I reserve via email? 4. Where do I find the suite concierge? Do I have the concierge handle the reservations? 5. Do I need to reserve all three meals at CK? I think that's it for now. Thanks in advance 🙂 Teddie Edited March 14 by teddie 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted March 14 #2 Share Posted March 14 Maybe I'm blind but I dont see which ship. Makes a difference on perks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SG65CB Posted March 14 #3 Share Posted March 14 The suite concierge has a desk in the suite lounge. They have office hours, they will be present in the lounge for a few hours in the morning, and in the evenings during happy hour. I'm guessing since you have Voom included you are on one of the big ships that takes reservations for the shows. Normally the concierge will have made show reservations for you, but with the late upgrade this might not be the case. If you receive an email from the concierge you can request reservations at CK by email reply. Otherwise on boarding day you can stop by CK and make reservations for as many days as you want to eat there. You only need reservations for dinner. For breakfast you just show up. I don't know the schedule for lunch if they are open every day or only sea days, if at all. If your luggage tags aren't updated in your account then the porters at the pier have luggage tags they can put on your bags. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will the suite perk for Voom include just one device? My previous purchase was for 2 devices. Can each of us have it? Teddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teddie As a GS perk on that class ship, you will each receive complimentary wifi for one device (each will have your own user name and password. If one of you needs to use two devices at the simultaneously, your cabinmate would have to log off and share the login info). If that’s enough wifi, cancel your previous purchase. If you are already locked out of the cruise planner, I would anticipate the suite concierge helping with that refund on day one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another_Critic Posted March 14 #15 Share Posted March 14 FYI - Quantum class Suite lounge is all the way aft and on a different floor than Coastal Kitchen (starboard Windjammer entrance hallway). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracie115 Posted March 14 #16 Share Posted March 14 You don't reserve breakfast and lunch in CK. Congrats on the upgrade. We loved CK on the Anthem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RumRunner01 Posted March 14 #17 Share Posted March 14 Wow! Congrats! I’m following this because I have a bid in to go from a Junior Suite to a Grand Suite on Wonder for the April 22 sailing. I also bid the minimum. I’m hoping and crossing my fingers to experience my first true suite, too, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly, thinking that you won't win a bid because the ship looks sold out is not accurate. Now I'm worried that I will be totally spoiled after this!

Teddie People sometimes have to cancel so upgrades happen even when then ship has been sold out for months. Have a great time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got royal upped on Anthem in November and frankly, I forgot to remove the prepaid internet. It actually didn't click until we were home. Eventually it got refunded but def visit guest services if you can't cancel in advance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
