Booked Fall Fantasy cruise on points - will I be charged $75 to upgrade cabin????

[treloarf]

I originally booked my cruise for Nov. and got a Cat. 10 - pts. =129. When I heard about the Fall Fantasy special, I called MS and they changed my points to 106. I thought great! Yesterday, I received my Vac. Magic and saw Cat. 8-9 was only 114 points plus $100 on-board credit. Gee, for only 8 more pts., I'd rather have an outside cabin. Will I be charged to change cabins? I would hope not!!! If so, shouldn't MS have said "you know for 16 more points (which I do have in my acct.), you could get an outside cabin"?

I would call and plead your case. You never know.

We did something similar.
We chaged rm cat, once the Fall Fantasy deal kicked in... and we were not charged the $75 change fee.
I thought it was because under the Fall Fantasy deal the new cat we moved to was now the same number of points as the old one.
(does this make sense? :))

Since you are changing and there is a point difference there might be a fee. But, I agree with Cora, plead your case.

I called and they said to change cabin categories it is $75. They said no one probably mentioned about only 16 more pts. for outside cabin because there would have been a charge. I can paying a fee to change dates, but to change a cabin, that doesn't make sense to me.

I paid an additional fee last November to change cabins from inside to outside. It was still worth it to me, since I decided I had to have a verandah! :)
