Nothing opened last night and nothing yet this morning. I don't want an interior since the Wonder doesn't have a magic porthole.
Does it matter though? If I book an interior now and a verandah later, I still have to pay the difference when I change rooms, at the current price for a verandah.Nothing opened last night, just upgraded room selections were. If you haven't grabbed the cruise yet, book any category to lock in rates. The more u wait for your room category you wanted it will be at a higher rate. Im at a verandah now for the first leg and oceanview on the leg back.
If u book interior, and later find verandah u pay the upgraded difference. You would pay the difference of what it would have been on that day if verandah was available. If you book when you find your category you pay whatever the current rate is at the moment.
Is this true?? Can anyone validate?@PrincessShmoo
DCL's policy up until now has been that your pricing is locked in as of the day you book. I've taken advantage of this on several occasions. I saw a response to another post where someone indicated that they had confirmed with a CM that this policy hasn't changed.
I'm just wondering how much that actually matters in this case, except for those who booked on opening day for Platinum CC members. The fares jumped quite a bit in some cases from Platinum day to Gold day and then the cruises sold out. Prices usually go up as more and more people book, but very few people have been able to book since late on Gold booking day. It would be interesting to see prices for the categories that are now popping up on the web site from time to time.
All that said, I agree with the PP who said that it's probably best to go ahead and book and try to upgrade later.
This was discussed on another thread a day or so ago, apparently this is correct. I've never done it myself so can't personally confirm, but it was a reliable source that commented about this subject.
Now, I am kicking myself for not booking when I did see the interior gty pop up!! Argh!!
