I would like to know more details on that as well. Specifically, does it give you Platinum Mlife card from here on out, or only for a limited period of time. Once D+ has been achieved, it is kept, that's the nature of Royal's program.

 

For the Mlife program, earning that Platinum card is an annual event - no resting on ones laurels. Starting on October 1st every player has one year to meet the minimum requirements again (200,000 tier credits), at which point your tier credits are reset to zero.

Hi Tom - that's sort of what I was getting at too. I know that typically we will reset to 0 for Oct. 1. But now that I will automatically be gold (I think... I am diamond on Royal), what will I need to do to earn my way back up to platinum? Will I need to work up from 0 or will I need to earn up from 75,000 (I think thatI remember that that's how many tier credits Gold is??). I doubt it would work that way (I can imagine them saying something like I am not 'actually' gold, just receiving gold benefits haha), but it would be a huge advantage to be automatically almost halfway to platinum!!! I can't wait to see how this all irons out! ;)

We are already Gold with M Life.....it would be nice just to bump up to Platinum.

Agreed... we are blessed to have been able to reach both Platinum in MLife and Diamond with RCCL. We will get a free 3-5 night cruise from this partnership (which I am very happy about!!!!), but pretty much zero perks in the other direction. Also, in October when we (mostly likely) will drop down from Platinum, either to Gold or Pearl. Do you think that we will 'start off' with gold level amount of tier credits and have to earn from that as a starting point? Or will we still start with 0 and earn from there. Between here and Tripadvisor's Las Vegas board it doesn't sound like anybody has an answer to this, but it will be interesting to see! :)

Safe travels everyone!
