We are so excited!  My Royal Up bid was accepted.  My cruise doesn’t sail until 1/31.  I’m hoping my Genie will reach out before then.  There are a few questions I’d like to ask.

Meant to say we were on that same cruise as the one quoted  - January 23 on Odyssey.

This coming Sunday on Allure out of Fort Lauderdale.

Big Red, Congratulations! when is your trip?  

Still waiting to hear on my HOS sailing in 1 week from today

It does have to do with the bid amount, and as well where you are already currently booked at (room Rate).  If you got a balcony and bid up to a suite, you have a better chance than if you have an interior trying to bid up to a suite.  If someone has a higher bid than you and is in a higher category already it will go to the higher category with the higher or equal bid amount.  It has nothing to do with on when the bid is placed...   
Plus they fill the top rooms 1st, then work there way down to what is left, when upgrading and filling rooms.
Also if you have a bid pending and all others have expired, it is a good sign.  But, it is still not guaranteed until they charge your card...

I bid on 6 cabins and all are expired except for 1 and I’m unable to modify my bid, it states pending.  I’m wondering if this is a good sign. 🤞

Today, while on the Anthem on the last day of a 9 night cruise, I received notification that my RoyalUp bid for an owner's suite has been accepted for the Anthem cruise on January 20. So twelve days prior to the cruise. This is the longest time pre-cruise that I was notified.

For my cruise next week I just checked the site and it says everything is expired, except one bid(usually a good thing in my previous experience with this).  Looks like this may be the 1st time we will be sailing Star Class!  🤞

Me, I would put a minimum bid on all of them. That way you’re not expecting anything but if you do win you got a screaming deal and you won’t mind giving up your old rooms!
