How to Unlock the Suite Life at Sea

Let’s talk about something every cruiser secretly dreams of… a suite upgrade. Picture this: you’re booked in a cozy stateroom, but with one smart move, you could be sipping bubbly on your private terrace or relaxing in a spacious suite with VIP perks — all without breaking the bank.

Many cruise lines offer a Level Upgrade option, which allows you to bid on a higher cabin category before you sail. Here’s how it works:

Watch Your Inbox – If upgrade bidding is available for your sailing, you’ll receive an email invitation a few weeks before your departure.

Make Your Offer – Name your price to upgrade from your current cabin to a premium category — like a balcony, mini-suite, or full-blown luxury suite.

Wait & See – If your offer is accepted, you’ll be upgraded and only charged the bid amount. If not, no harm done — you keep your original cabin.

Pro Tip: Act Quickly — Upgrade opportunities don’t last long. Once the offer hits your inbox, timing matters.

A well-placed upgrade bid — with the guidance of a travel advisor — could be your golden ticket to a better view, more space, and VIP treatment on board.
