Kirsten Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 We are booked on Adventure at the end of this month and judging by mock bookings, it's pretty full. I received the invite for Royal Up a while ago and put in two very low bids for suites. When I go to my Royal Up bids, I can see the two bids that I put in, but can't modify them. One just says "submitted" with no other options, and the other one goes to tell me "no eligible cruise found" when I click on "modify". If I click on the "click here to see other upgrade options", it takes me to three other options that I haven't bid on. This is very different than my Royal Up experience for Oasis back in May. I was able to change, cancel, or modify any of the bids that I had made. Has anyone had a similar experience, and if so, what was the outcome?

The new system seems to say submitted instead of pending. Not being able to modify a bid use to mean you had a very high chance of winning. They will offer RUs even if ship is full because there may be cancellations. I just received RUs for my B2B. I got if for both reservations but since RU is ran by a third party, they won't see that I am B2B in the same cabin, so no need for me to try to upgrade.

Swar Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 Last week was the first time out of @8 (in the last year) that I did not get an upgrade. The Indy was pretty full which was good. OV was ok and was in a balcony for the second part of the B2B. I saw the submitted vs. pending thingy. I could cancel my previous bids and resubmit with a different amount if desired.

I wasn't sure if it was a glitch or if it meant that I might get it. Here's hoping I do win. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PPPJJ-GCVAB Posted July 31, 2022 Report Share Posted July 31, 2022 I just checked mine and can still modify all bids. My cruise is 2 weeks away on Adventure which apparently is sold out because it has not been listed for pricing at least for a few weeks now! I am not very hopeful but it’s fun to bid and wish!

Neesa Posted July 31, 2022 Report Share Posted July 31, 2022 I just checked mine this morning, I am sailing this afternoon. I can still modify my bid also. It says I can modify until 2 hours before we sail. It says if I hear/see no notification by then my bid has been unsuccessful. I think they are holding it in case a passenger/family can't make the sailing last minute which I truly don't wish on anyone.
