Not anything new, they have always offered a free cruise to milestone cruisers:

 

 

 

Platinum Member - Milestone

 

Sail and celebrate your Carnival “milestone” with our exciting new guest recognition program. Past guests who sail on a “milestone” 25th, 50th and 75th “Fun Ship” cruise will receive shipboard credit representing 25 percent, 50 percent, or 75 percent of their cruise fare, respectively, for that particular voyage. And, for your 100th earn a complimentary Caribbean, Mexican Riviera or Alaskan voyage up to eight days in length. These “milestone” cruise benefits are in addition to the other amenities and privileges of being a “Platinum” cardholder.

For more information call toll-free, 1-877-CCL-VIPS (1-877-225-8477). Shipboard credits and free cruises received for “milestone” cruises are non-transferable and non-refundable. Certain other restrictions apply.

I guess we'll all find out the details tomorrow when it's officially released.

 

I'd be willing to bet it's no longer going to take 100 cruises to get a free one though.

He said on his fb page the announcement tomorrow (or Friday) is not about the loyalty program. I'm bummed.

I saw the article on fb as well but I thought it was a gag. Do you really think they'll call it "Riff Raff"? Well I guess it is the funship afterall! :o The article also said something about John being a large man which seemed odd. It just read funny to me... but then again what do I know...we'll see!

So all of us platinums will be riff raff in the future.

 

Wow.

[Zaphod]

For a free cruise, you can call me just about anything you want!

This seems like a hoax. Why would this be in a newspaper? And what newspaper prints "FFS"?
