What upgrade options does Air Caraïbes offer?
Air Caraïbes offers Bid Upgrade.
How does Air Caraïbes's bid (offer) upgrade work?
You name an amount — within a range shown for your booking — to move up to a higher cabin. It's an offer, not a fixed price: you're only charged if Air Caraïbes accepts it. If your offer isn't accepted you pay nothing and keep your original seat.

Who is eligible for a Air Caraïbes upgrade?
Eligibility depends on your fare type, route, and how close to departure you are — not every fare or flight qualifies, and offers usually open within a window before departure. The reliable way to know is to check your specific booking rather than assume.
When am I charged for a Air Caraïbes upgrade?
Only if your offer is accepted. With bid upgrades the charge happens when the upgrade is confirmed — typically in the days before departure. If your offer isn't accepted, there's no charge.
How will I know if my Air Caraïbes upgrade offer was accepted?
Air Caraïbes notifies you — usually by email — if your offer is accepted, typically shortly before departure. Until then your original booking stands, and you can review your offer's status where you submitted it.
Can I change or cancel my Air Caraïbes upgrade offer?
A pending offer can usually be changed or cancelled any time before it's accepted, from the page where you submitted it. Once an offer is accepted and charged, the upgrade is confirmed.
How much does a Air Caraïbes upgrade cost?
There's no fixed price — you offer within a range shown for your booking, which varies by route, cabin, and demand. You choose where in that range to bid; higher offers can have a better chance of being accepted, though the exact acceptance formula isn't published.
Can I change or cancel my Air Caraïbes upgrade bid after submitting it?
Yes — an Air Caraïbes upgrade bid can be changed or cancelled any time until Air Caraïbes makes its decision. Once a bid is accepted it's final and your card is charged. To update or withdraw it, use Air Caraïbes's Manage My Booking / offer page, or check your booking here (booking ••••••e + last name) and I can help you modify or cancel it.
When is my card charged for a Air Caraïbes upgrade bid?
Only if your bid is accepted. Submitting an Air Caraïbes upgrade bid authorizes your card for the bid amount, but nothing is charged unless Air Caraïbes accepts it — if the bid is declined or expires, the authorization is released and you pay nothing, keeping your original cabin. If it's accepted, the card you provided is charged the amount you offered and your upgrade is confirmed.
When will I find out if my Air Caraïbes upgrade bid was accepted?
Air Caraïbes decides upgrade bids before your flight — often close to departure, once the operator knows how much cabin space is left. You'll be notified by email either way at the address on your offer. You don't need to keep checking, but you can see your bid's current status any time by checking your booking here (booking ••••••e + last name) or on Air Caraïbes's Manage My Booking page.
