During my lifetime, I have only taken three cruises. The first was to Alaska, the second was to Key West and Cuba, and the last and most recent (last summer), was to the Bahamas.
The cruises were essentially what we paid for with no upgrades (we weren't offered any) by any of the cruise lines.
There are ways to getting a cruise cabin upgrade. Yahoo! Life has posted 10 secrets to getting a cruise stateroom upgrade.

I agreed (of course), and she explained that this offer is one of the benefits of sailing with Princess; whenever a ship has a vacancy in one of its Family Suites, they offer it to a family onboard as a free upgrade.
We struck gold with that upgrade, but there are plenty of other ways to ensure an upgraded stateroom. Here's what industry experts say are the secrets to scoring a free cabin upgrade on your next cruise.
