    7 Nights 4/23 Symphony

    Royal Up from Balcony Ocean to Sky Loft, $800 USD PP x 2 

     

    Approved 18 Days prior to sailing 

    Just curious, what was the minimum bid?

    My minimum was $800 pp and we bid $1200 pp.  I haven't heard anything yet.

    Got off Symphony of the Seas and first time in a crown loft suite (sky class) and it was great. We did the royal up because we were going to 4 to a oceanview balcony and it was great.  I just thought hey bigger room better for the family but the other perks is what I was blown away with.

    1. Reservations not needed:  Everything I read about Symphony was get on board early, get on the ship's wifi and start making reservations with a pre-planned strategy.  Instead got an email the week before and just sent my list in and Nadja and Jennie took care of it. 

    2. Reservations really not needed:  The show schedule got all moved around so my reservations got moved and had to reschedule but couldn't do it in the app.  Went to ladies on deck 17 suite lounge got a little piece of paper and walked right in to every show we wanted even like an hour before show time.  I will miss this going back down in cabin class.

    3. Suite Deck,  more importantly suite deck bar.  We had the drink package and several times I would have another drink handed to me before even asking.  

    4. Drink Package not really needed.  The included beer and wine in coastal kitchen/suite lounge along with evening cocktails made me rethink the need of a drink package if I go up to this level again. 

    5. Checkin/Getting off the ship:  So amazingly easy and getting walked off was a treat in itself. 

     

    It just was amazing to meet so many different people all on the same ship having a different cruise.  We were in the lap of luxury, others were boozing it up, others were gaming the casino (facebook slot pulls to gain casino points off other peoples money) and others were not enjoying it.  Thanks this board and site for helping us plan and have a great time. 

    If you don't mind me asking, how much was the minimum bid and what did you bid to successfully Royal Up to the Crown Loft?

    Also, if we are successful, I may also cancel our unlimited drink packages and just pay as we go for cocktails.  Can you take the Coastal Kitchen and Suite Lounge Free drinks out of those designated areas?

    Where were the evening complimentary cocktails for sky class?

    No real set amounts. Between what I spent and won over 5 cruises since oct 21' to now, I would say my actual losses are under $500 and I have been getting free interiors plus credit offers each month since Jan.  It is really all about the points. Every $5 is 1 point but you can earn points on house money. If you get 400+ points in a sailing they will issue a certificate. It can be money off or a free sailing. I once got 400 points on $100 because I kept winning. 

    So have you ever been offered anything better than an interior?  Or have you been able to Royal Up from the interior to a better stateroom?  Just curious.
