Creator's Key Takeaways

the benefits of booking a guaranteed cabin have completely changed

the bidding process has virtually eliminated the majority of people getting that guaranteed cabin move to a better upgrade

your chances are your main benefit now of getting that you know cabin in on a guaranteed price is the savings of money

I used to sail on the inside cabins all the time all the time no problem inside save money blah blah blah and then I got upgraded to a balcony and the minute I got upgraded to a balcony and I could open up that fresh air and step out the balcony enjoy the the sunset and the you know the Cool Breeze and fresh air in my cabin I got hooked

Creator's Tips & Advice

If you see a guaranteed cabin priced the same as a pick-your-own cabin, book the specific cabin instead.
If you don't care where you sit on the ship, a guaranteed cabin can still be a good option for savings.

WHY CRUISE LINES WON'T UPGRADE YOUR GUARANTEE CABIN ANYMORE. People use to and still do book a guarantee cruise cabin for two reasons. One was a lower price. The other was the chance the cruise line would upgrade you to a higher prices cabin for free. Well something has changed that pretty much cancels the chance of the cabin upgrade from happening.
