cruisechamp62 Posted July 26, 2010 #1 Share Posted July 26, 2010 During the DL event on the Monarch this weekend, we overheard one cruiser refer to another cruiser as "Black Diamond". Has anyone heard of this before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puffinater Posted July 26, 2010 #2 Share Posted July 26, 2010 My guess...just another fictitious tier made up by an over zealous D+ member but I could be wrong. Maybe it is a new tier that will be part of the Jan. 1st announcement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChipLondon Posted July 26, 2010 #3 Share Posted July 26, 2010 You will often hear people talking about possible new C&A status levels, one I heard was Royal Diamond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquahound Posted July 26, 2010 #4 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Black Diamonds are Diamond members who once had Concierge Lounge access, but no longer do.......or so I heard. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

critterchick Posted July 26, 2010 #6 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Can you elaborate?Thanks, m When RCI announced new C&A benefits about a month ago, one of their senior execs was quoted as saying something to the effect that this was the first step in a series of changes. Speculation (from what I consider to be reliable sources, anyway) is rampant that there will be further changes coming as of January 1. A primary one is a change in the number of cruises or cruise credits to get to Diamond and Diamond Plus status. I wouldn't be surprised to see Diamond Plus passengers get booted from the Concierge Lounge, either, but I'm just speculating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted July 26, 2010 #7 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Thanks Critterchick. I am anxious to learn info so when you get some, can you post it? Have you heard the credits/cruises needed for levels and will current C&A folks get grandfathered in with their old status. Thanks. M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BecciBoo Posted July 26, 2010 #11 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I'm with lptag....Black Diamond status means they ski on a regular basis on Black Diamond runs only. Unfortunately, no ski runs on RCCL.......YET!:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ltbw038 Posted July 27, 2010 #17 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Black Diamond is not as rare as Blood Diamond. It's my understanding you have to have 100 cruise credits and participate in at least one genocide or ethnic cleansing. This post is a joke. Please do not be offended.
