I was Elite on Celebrity a couple of days ago and now I'm a nobody. Oh well, It's not the first time I've been a nobody :D

Will you share your numbers? From many posts on the Celebrity forum, nobody else has reported losing status level.

[jonbgd]

I am still Select and now have 60 club points points instead of 2 tier credits

[travelbug11]

My Celebrity page has been updated. I had 34 points and am now Elite+

[jmarkkasper]

...transatlantic ending 11/7 has not yet posted -- so I only got enough points (280) in the conversion to be considered Select, although the recent crossing should have taken me to 11 credits. Hope they fix that.

From the Celebrity web site.

We are frequent Celebrity cruisers and will probably be Elite + when the dust settles. I don't believe that D+ will have access to Michael's Club. The info that I've seen on the Celebrity chatroom seems to imply that Michael's Club would be for the Zenith level, unlike the Concierge Lounge which gives access to D+ and up.

 

 

For now. Many think D+ will lose access to the Concierge Lounge but retain access to the mostly newer Diamond Lounges.

And-did you notice Celebrity will give a discount to E+ on a beverage package! One would hope Royal does that too!!

How can this be? I have 390 points and are still Elite.

Because Elite starts at 300 points and runs to 749 points. Elite+ starts at 740 points.

[Debde]

Anyone have any idea if D+ on Royal would still have access to Michael's club on celebrity ?

 

I believe that is an official no now.

That should read Elite+ starts at 750. :o

Just spoke to a representative from celebrity Captains club.

Diamond plus on Royal Caribbean. Equates to elite on celebrity. I was told that diamond plus on Royal Caribbean would not have access to Michael's club, However elite or diamond plus would have access to a different area on the ship with the same amenities as Michael's club For the cocktail hour only.

Only Zenith members will have access to Michael's Club.

The other poster stated they had 34 points and were now Elite. Think they meant 34 cruises?

The new changes made USA Today.

Here is Celebrity web page.

I wonder how long it is going to take RCI to match it?

It would not surprise me If they started giving out one point for inside two for a balcony and three for a suite.

[cruiseguysusa]

Our conversion rate was 1 credit to 30 points. Going forward we will only earn about half the amount in points vs the credit system. Our three upcoming cruises would have netted us 5 additional credits, enough to attain the Elite+ level. However, the point system will leave us 74 points short, requiring 25-37 more sailing days to achieve Elite+. Zenith isn't even an obtainable goal for us.

 

We only need 44 more sailing days to achieve Elite level with Princess and will probably concentrate on that goal instead of Elite+ on Celebrity.

Do points still not transfer from rccl to X and visa versa?

Do points still not transfer from rccl to X and visa versa?

None of the changes I've seen so far indicates that points can transfer.

No, that would go against what they're trying to achieve.

[Shak]

Like others have said you cannot combine the two loyalty programs but you can get the same status level if you cruise with Celebrity as you have on RCI and visa versa but I haven't seen how the levels compare with each other.

Yes, my 34 points x 30 = 1,020
