EL Capitan Z Posted August 2, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Hello guys, A quick ??? We are at 24 days (RED status) currently. I am cruising on the Dream in August for a 7 night cruise. To become GOLD status we would need 25 days (we have 24). Since our upcoming DREAM cruise is 7 nights, will Carnival convert us to GOLD status on the second day so that we can participate in the GOLD status get together? I would think they would but who knows.... Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figdu Posted August 2, 2014 #4 Share Posted August 2, 2014 You will receive gold cards at checkin and will be treated as such the entire cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montekat Posted August 2, 2014 #5 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Check on your documents. It should already list you as gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EL Capitan Z Posted August 2, 2014 Author #8 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Check on your documents. It should already list you as gold. The website still has me at RED. hmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregg204 Posted August 2, 2014 #9 Share Posted August 2, 2014 The website still has me at RED. hmmm If you are at 24 days now, you will definitely be gold on your entire next cruise. I wouldn't sweat it. You're good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggieworkman Posted August 2, 2014 #10 Share Posted August 2, 2014 The website still has me at RED. hmmm The website will list you as red. But if you look on the actual cruise docs, it should list you as gold. Maggie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MV Wiggle Posted August 2, 2014 #11 Share Posted August 2, 2014 The website still has me at RED. hmmm Your VIFP status online will have you as Red as you are not officially credited those nights until after the cruise is over. Your cruise documents for your upcoming cruise should list you as Gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfadj Posted August 2, 2014 #12 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Your VIFP status online will have you as Red as you are not officially credited those nights until after the cruise is over.

Swampbaby Posted August 2, 2014 #13 Share Posted August 2, 2014 We are same situation. Shows Red but on the actual documents shows Gold and we will be issued Gold upon checking in at the port. ENJOY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitamin_Sea Posted August 2, 2014 #14 Share Posted August 2, 2014 you will get your gold s&s card on that sailing. The gold pin in your cabin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted August 2, 2014 #15 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Your VIFP status online will have you as Red as you are not officially credited those nights until after the cruise is over. Your cruise documents for your upcoming cruise should list you as Gold. It takes a few days after your cruise for the online to be updated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CdrescherRBL152 Posted August 2, 2014 #16 Share Posted August 2, 2014 The website still has me at RED. hmmm The website will be red as they look at days sailed not days pay. Once you check in at the terminal so they know youare actually sailing you get credit for the days.

cynthe66 Posted August 2, 2014 #17 Share Posted August 2, 2014 The website still has me at RED. hmmm It will have you has red until it's paid in full once it's paid then the documents will state gold. I know I turn gold on this up coming cruise and my docs stated red and once it was paid in full it changed to gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rrraydon Posted August 2, 2014 #18 Share Posted August 2, 2014 But remember, as when dealing with a representative on the Carnival phone lines, what happens with one person does not necessarily happen with another. Some have posted that they received their new updated status when they boarded, some say they didn't receive their new status until after their milestone cruise was completed and still some say their boarding pass reflected it online prior to ever boarding. It's a toss up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elliair Posted August 2, 2014 #19 Share Posted August 2, 2014 We turned platinum on the Inspiration and did not get platinum status until we booked our next cruise. Maybe they have changed it, but I think it's at the time you book that you get your status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuddrules Posted August 2, 2014 #20 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Your cruise documents for your upcoming cruise should list you as Gold. This: Log in online: Go to Manage my Bookings: Click on Cruise Details: Click on View Cruise documents: Check the box for Print General Information: Click submit: About half way down the first page you'll see guest: under that you'll see the name of the cruisers and under the name it will list your VIFP status Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruzinlisa Posted August 3, 2014 #22 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Nope you'll be Gold status when you board. Enjoy! This. Or atleast that was the case last year when I turned gold again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jzx1103 Posted August 3, 2014 #23 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Ok so just to clarify, my wife and I are at 23 days currently. So as long as my next cruise with carnival isn't some one day cruise (which I guess doesn't exist). We will get to enjoy the perks of being a gold VIFP member since the start of my next cruise and not have to wait until we finish our next cruise???

PomSaysOm Posted August 3, 2014 #25 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Does this still apply if the last day of a cruise is your 25th? I'm 14 days away from Gold and we usually pick 7 day cruises, so if my calculations are correct, my 25th day will be the last day of my second 7 day cruise from now.
