Source: Our analysis of the creator's lived experience, based on what they said in this video.
Creator's Key Takeaways
I've been upgraded to a penthouse suite on this upcoming Cruise saving thousands of dollars over the standard fair for this cabin
I paid $2,160 for the upgrade to a penthouse suite so in total I saved $1,760 by using the princess upgrade program
I would definitely suggest booking the minimum State room that you would be happy with on your cruise vacation in case your bid doesn't come through
It's a great way to potentially experience a suite maybe if you've never done that before

Welcome to Tim at Sea! Recently, I recently posted a video showing you how you can use the Princess Upgrade Program to bid on stateroom upgrades on your next Princess cruise and potentially save hundreds or thousands of dollars. Check out that video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85E-2hZOE5E At the end of the video, I placed some bids on some suite upgrades for my September, 2023 Alaskan cruise on the Discovery Princess. Today, I’m here to tell you that my bid was accepted and I’ve been upgraded to a Penthouse Suite on this cruise at a fraction of the cost of the regular cruise fare for this cabin! In this video, I will show you how much I saved, provide details on how I was notified, and discuss some of the perks that will come with this upgrade.
