Rare stevenr597 Posted March 26, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 26, 2014 We are frequent cruisers on Celebrity and members of Celebrity's Captain's Club. We have also sailed on RCCL and are members of the Crown & Anchor Club. We do know that Celebrity does take into account your sailings on RCCL to calculate your level in the Captain's Club. Is the reverse true? Due you get credit on RCCL for sailing on Celebrity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolesrule Posted March 26, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 26, 2014 (edited) The benefit is for reciprocal status levels only. http://www.royalcaribbean.com/customersupport/faq/details.do?pagename=frequently_asked_questions&faqId=971&faqSubjectId=340 Points are not accrued in the Celebrity program when sailing on Royal, nor in C&A for sailing on Celebrity.

You do not get any points added to your Celebrity account when you sail RCCL, and do not get any points added to your RCCL account when you sail Celebrity. What you do get is a very generous reciprocal benefits package. Diamond, Diamond Plus or Pinnacle on RCCL will get you Elite on Celebrity. Elite, Elite plus or Zenith will get you Diamond on RCCL. enjoy M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare silentbob007 Posted March 26, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 26, 2014 They will take it into account, but points don't add and you must be a mid-tier or above member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beshears Posted March 26, 2014 #5 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I just read that if I was in the Q & A area, and brought a friend that had never cruised on RCCL, I would get a $25 OBC. Does anyone here know about this? Does the friend have to be in another room, or can it be mine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TravelerThom Posted April 1, 2014 #8 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Thank you for letting me know that if I bring a new person on RCCL, I can get a $25 OBC, even if they are in my room.Note that I don't think (not absolutely positive) it is combinable with any other RCI OBC or C&A balcony discount.

beshears Posted April 1, 2014 #9 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Hello, I just want to let you know that I had a bad time trying to bring up the area for the Crown & Anchor, so I decided to make a phone call to RCCL. It was on the "5th" (the other calls kept dropping me off, or hanging up before I could talk with someone) call, that I finally got through. It wasn't that department, but they transferred me over. To make the long story short, the lady in customer service, after checking out that I was a Q & A member, said she would put my OBC for $25 on there for me, and my TA should let me know within a couple days. I hope this pans out, as I told the lady, I had a BAD experience on RCCL before, so hopefully this will be better. So if you have a friend/relative that has never booked on RCCl, you can get a $25 OBC too.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beshears Posted April 3, 2014 #12 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Instead of going to the website, I just called yesterday, and they were to take care of it for me. So we'll see if I get the $25 OBC for bringing my friend with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattwright Posted April 3, 2014 #14 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I've got another C&A/Captain's Club question for those of you in this thread who may know. Say I'm D or D+ with C&A and I take my first cruise with Celebrity. I understand that I'd start off with Elite benefits. But how many Elite "club points" would I be given as we start working towards Elite Plus? Does it default to the Elite entry-level of 300 points? Or is there some scale involved based on how many points we have with C&A? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is reciprocal status, but you can only earn points on each line by cruising the line. Edited April 3, 2014 by nolesrule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hancock Posted April 3, 2014 #16 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Elite benefits but zero points! You will have to start from scratch as far as points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerif Posted April 3, 2014 #17 Share Posted April 3, 2014 And unless it changed very recently, Elite is as high as Celebrity goes right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolesrule Posted April 3, 2014 #18 Share Posted April 3, 2014 And unless it changed very recently, Elite is as high as Celebrity goes right now. It's changed. They added Elite Plus and Zenith. But they can only be attained through points, not reciprocity (like D+ and Pinnacle). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is reciprocal status, but you can only earn points on each line by cruising the line. Elite benefits but zero points! You will have to start from scratch as far as points. Yikes. Thank you both for the confirmation. For some reason, that scenario never crossed my mind. I knew that nights on Celebrity wouldn't earn points on RC and vice versa, but I had never considered that starting with Elite status and benefits wouldn't also include a comparable level of points if we wanted to start working up the ladder with Celebrity as well. So it looks like moving past either D+ or Elite is not something I'm going to be able to accomplish any time soon. But it won't be for lack of trying, I assure you. :D And unless it changed very recently, Elite is as high as Celebrity goes right now. It has. https://secure.celebritycruises.com/genericHtmlTemplate.do?pagename=cc_the_club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PORT ROYAL Posted April 3, 2014 #20 Share Posted April 3, 2014 And unless it changed very recently, Elite is as high as Celebrity goes right now. There are two levels above, Elite Plus and above EP is Zenith:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruzinlady1947 Posted April 4, 2014 #22 Share Posted April 4, 2014 On my cruise on the Grandeur March 18th, there was a rumor going around that they might drop the crossover status in the future between RCCL and Celebrity. I sure hope it was just a rumor. I heard it from a Pinnacle cruiser. Anybody else hear this? Gwen :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
