Questions about C&A/credit card, when sailing on Celebrity

[ckfred]

I've got a couple of questions about being a Crown & Anchor member and sailing on Celebrity.

 

First, do you accrue C&A points on Celebrity the way you accrue points on RC, i.e., a point for every night?

 

Second, can you use points earned with the RC/Bank of America credit card on Celebrity cruises?

You don't earn C&A points. You earn Captains Club points. Yes, you can use BofA points toward Celebrity now.

Celebrity just changed the way they accrue points, and it's now each stateroom category accrues a different amount of points per night. The more expensive staterooms accrue more points per night. Those points accrue only on Celebrity and don't affect your point total on Royal.

 

You can now redeem your RCI Visa rewards for Celebrity cruises.

Now, that's an issue. If you sail on Celebrity, because RC doesn't offer a similar cruise, then it doesn't do anything for for trying to get a higher status with C&A.

 

You would think Royal Caribbean would copy what the airlines do, such as flying American and accumlating miles with AAdvantage or the British Airways F/F program.

Royal and Celebrity do have reciprocal recognition of loyalty levels, but no direct point transfers. For example, if you are Diamond on Royal, then you are Elite on Celebrity, and vice-versa.
