The new system is powered by Plusgrade, allowing Uniworld passengers to be invited to browse staterooms and suites still available on their cruise in higher categories than the one in which they are booked. Guests can bid on multiple stateroom upgrades but will only pay for the one they actually receive.

“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. Our new Category+ stateroom program will give our guests an opportunity to add even more luxury to their vacation at a price point of their choosing, risk-free.”

Guests have the chance to accept or decline the offer and are then notified by email and charged for their bid.

Travel advisors whose clients bid on a stateroom upgrade and accept the amount will receive commission on that additional amount.

Currently, all Uniworld passengers are required to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
