Interior to Junior Suite

[SummerRose]

Would you upgrade from an interior stateroom to a junior suite for $500 per person on Liberty of the Seas (7 day sailing).  I'll be with my 7 year old kid.

What are the benefits?  It seems like a low enough price jump for a bigger jump in stateroom category.

$1000 total for 2 people to move from Interior to JS on a 7 night cruise? Not a bad value

I would do it!!!

Nope.  That's $1000 I could put towards drink packages, dining packages or excursions or another entire cruise!

I was quite surprised (and happy) with the royal up from CP balcony to JS. I bid $300 p/p on Symphony and think I could have gotten it for even less. 
 

Being able to “skip” the lines on embarkation day was a huge bonus. Also, I found the JS room category to be well wort. It. The walk in closet, bathtub, large balcony and extra living space sold me.

If it was during the double point promo you'd get double double, so yep, I would.

I wouldn't do it....I would book another cruise with the $1000 in another interior cabin. Prices are good now...very easy to find a 7 day cruise for under $1000.

This was kind of my thought...that could almost pay for another cruise later in the year.

So you don't lose the promotion points by changing the room?  I was worried about this.

I think the booking number would stay the same.  If it's not a Royal Up and you are just actually changing rooms you might still qualify. @michelle or @Sharla?

Another benefit is the Junior Suite will have a tub, if that's a benefit for your son.

[AshleyDillo]

You retain double points as long as the reservation number stays the same, which it will as long as you aren't changing ships or sail date. However if this is a RoyalUp bid and not a direct upgrade you won't get any bonus points for being in a suite. (I assumed with the 500 per person statement you were talking about Royal Up.)

I do believe you'd still qualify if it was booked before Sept 30.
