    Thanks for the response, Cruisemom. You are right, there is no rhyme or reason. It seems they diss their regulars and give better perks to people who do not cruise as often as we do. Our friends received 2 free balcony cabins this year and didn't cruise as often or spend like we do. I have seen posts from people who haven't cruised in years getting much better perks then we do.

    I have one Carnival cruise still booked for January (only because we are going with friends or I would have cancelled) and I will not gamble as much as usual, then off to a free balcony on RCCL through UrComped. Maybe Carnival will become more transparent in their point system and woo us back someday.

    Have a great time (you will, Ultras are a lot of fun).

    For MamaB: the invitee and 1 guest get to draw for the prizes.

    Thanks for the information, Oxymoron11.

  2. We are going on the Spring 2019 Ultra and are wondering if they are still giving the "good" gifts.

    Such as: ipads, computer, TVs, cash.  The offer from Carnival was NOT good, but we want to experience 1 ultra cruise.

    Any experiences are welcome!!  Thank you.

  3. The actual gift was a nice bag - kind of a cross between a back pack & a beach bag?? Difficult to explain, but it was nice. There was also a leather covered journal & pin in the "welcome aboard" bag along with the Drinks on Us card. I believe the rest of the goodies (chocolate covered strawberries/chocolate dish, the cookies) are what we normally get from the casino when it's not a Premier cruise.

     

    We were also given the steakhouse selection in the MDR along with a choice of bottles of wine on the last day. If you like a sweet white wine, the Moscato in the MDR is very good.

     

    I've been on 4 Premier cruises and this was by far the best I've experienced when it came to bar service. I always tip at least $2 for the free drinks, but I don't think that influenced the service. My sister and I had purchased some Cruise Cash Bar and on the last night we knew we wouldn't be spending it all. Checked with the Guest Services to see if we could use it in the "additional tips" section when getting the Drinks On Us - were told we could use it as additional tips in any bar or the coffee bar. Fatima was shocked when I added a $25 tip and my sister added a $25 and a $50 tip before leaving the casino that last night. She really was great. Tell her Patricia & Shirley say hi!

     

    This will be our first premier cruise and now we are much more excited about it. Thank you for all the information. By the way, do you happen to have the schedule of events held in the casino? I figure the more information we have before we sail, the easier to plan.

    We will definitely send Fatima your "HI".:D:D:D:Dclear.png?emoji-grin-1677

  4. This was a Premier Casino cruise for us and we spent a lot of time in the casino. I thought the machines were fairly loose compared to other cruise casinos - at least I was able to play a lot and get more points than I usually do. The bar waiters were very busy (most people had the Drinks On Us cards), but they were some of the best I've encountered. Always around asking if you needed anything - shout out to Fatima!

     

     

     

    We are going on a Premier Cruise in May on the Miracle. What were the gifts you received for being on the Premier Cruise?

    Also, we will definitely look for "Fatima" when in the casino.....thanks for the heads up.:)
