Your dream stateroom on a river cruise can be a reality with a new Category+ bid program from Uniworld Boutique River Cruises.
Uniworld guests will be invited to browse staterooms and suites still available on their cruise in a higher category than they originally booked, and then place an offer through the Plusgrade system. Bids may be placed on multiple available staterooms to increase upgrade chances, but travelers will only pay for their upgrade if it is accepted.
“At Uniworld, we’re always looking for new ways to elevate our guests’ river cruise experience,” said Ellen Bettridge, President and CEO of Uniworld Boutique River Cruises. “We’re thrilled to be the first river cruise line to work with Plusgrade in providing an upgrade program of this nature.”
Once an offer is either accepted or declined, the guest will be notified via email and immediately charged the amount of their offered bid. Bids may be cancelled or modified up to five days prior to departure provided an acceptance has not already been made, and Uniworld will notify travelers of acceptance no less than three days prior to departure.
No matter what category guests are in everyone still enjoys the same high-quality service and all-inclusive luxurious amenities that come standard, Uniworld points out.
