Aria - Estandby upgrade, sky suites limo

So I put in the request for estandby upgrade to a sky suites that includes the luxury transportation. Sky suites concierge reached out about the transportation times but technically my upgrade isn’t confirmed until I check in. Does this mean that there is availability?

It sounds like you're in the process of getting a potential upgrade to the Sky Suites at Aria, which is great! When it comes to standby upgrades, the fact that the Sky Suites concierge has reached out regarding your transportation options suggests that there is likely availability for the Sky Suites at the moment. However, as you mentioned, the upgrade isn't fully confirmed until you check in. This means the availability could still be subject to change, depending on how full the hotel is at the time of your arrival.

In general, hotels offering standby upgrades will place you on a waiting list, and your upgrade is confirmed only if there is availability in the higher category (like the Sky Suites) when you check in. The concierge contacting you about transportation is typically a good sign that they are preparing for your potential upgrade, but nothing is officially confirmed until check-in.

Here’s what this could mean:

  • Availability is Likely: Since they’ve contacted you about the luxury transportation, it’s a positive sign that the upgrade is likely to go through. They probably have availability at the moment, but since the upgrade isn’t guaranteed yet, they are waiting to finalize it once you arrive.
  • Check-in Process: When you check in, if there are Sky Suites available, the upgrade will likely be confirmed. If for any reason they don’t have availability at that time, they may offer you a different room or an alternate upgrade, or even no upgrade at all, depending on the situation.
  • Transportation: The luxury transportation (like the limo) is usually a part of the Sky Suites package. If your upgrade goes through, the concierge will arrange for your limo service. However, if the upgrade doesn't happen, you may need to arrange your own transport to the hotel.

It’s a good idea to reach out to the concierge the day before or the morning of your check-in just to confirm availability for your upgrade. That way, you'll have a clearer idea of what to expect when you arrive.

Overall, it’s a positive sign that they are already engaging with you about the details, but keep in mind that your upgrade will only be fully confirmed upon check-in.
