Sailed Princess....any benefit when cruising P&O

[Bogof1]

We have sailed Princess on 3 occasions, know they accept P&O cruises towards loyalty program, does anyone know if P&O reciprocate this arrangement? Many thanks for your replies :)

[terrierjohn]

Unfortunately no.

[daiB]

Unfortunately no.

 

 

I agree with John.

 

That comes from an Elite member of Princess. The nearest I have been to a Princess ship, would have been when the Royal Princess, which became Atemis and now Artania passed us in Cadiz.

P&O used to count Princess days but at half the value, that stopped when it went to the Peninsular club.

Hi there as stated no cross over from Princess to P and O on the loyalty programme. However if you are a shareholder with Carnival you will still get that OBC and my understanding is that P and O are finally giving OBC to UK military however the OBC is much lower than Princess

the shareholder obc is similar to that on Princess taking exchange rates into account, e.g P&O £150, Princess $250

I think it's time Princess ditched the system where P&O cruises count towards captains circle. It should just be Princess Cruises that count.

I'm glad they did. - I got my elite status with Princess through a few final cruises with P and O cruises!

So if you have ever cruised on P&O you have not used the credit towards your Captain's Circle benefit.;) or is it that now you have got your benefits you think it should be ditched for everyone else as long as they dont take it off you.

Princess stopped P&O counting in the middle of last year.

OK, i have a princess cruise booked for next year and because of my P&O cruises i will be elite status in the captains circle. I have my membership number etc etc.

 

so where did you find out that Princess no longer count P&O cruises?

 

edit - just logged into my captains circle account, i am listed as a platinum member although I have never been on a Princess cruise. By next year I should be an elite

Princess do still count P&O. I was a gold captain's circle member on Emerald Princess despite never setting foot on a Princess ship before.

[jenny wren]

Yes, they do still count P & O points on Princess....we have just returned from a cruise on Ruby Princess ...our third with them....and we were Elite because of our P & O cruises.....and the perks are so much better...10% off shop purchases, free laundry and dry cleaning, 250 mins of internet use, fresh fruit in cabin on request and canapés in cabin on formal nights, and afternoon tea in cabin on request, extra toiletries, priority embarkation on tenders and special lounge on disembarkation.....well worth having and we felt really special....we just wish P & O would improve their loyalty perks.

I have enough Princess cruises under my belt to qualify as elite in my own right. I also have enough P&O cruises to qualify for Baltic in my own right. What I do object to is people coming onto princess ships and using their loyalty points that were built up with inferior brands and clogging up the free laundry system....not forgetting the mad rush to be first on the tenders!! 😫

Oh goodness we agree. I also think P and O is an inferior product to Princess!

You obviously didnt think P&O were inferior when you did enough cruises to get to Baltic status and if you no longer cruise with P&O you are no longer Baltic because you would drop back to Caribbean if you still cruise with P&O and are Baltic which you would have had to to remain in that status then me thinks you are an hypocrite. If you hate P&O that much and think they are inferior why do you daily read this thread and post regularly on here and still cruise with them..:D

What I should have clarified was Princess no longer add P&O cruises to the captains circle since the middle of last year, if you are already in their captains circle the old cruises prior to that still count.

Hi there

 

But this isn't true for us. We took a P and O Cruise in May 2014 and this has been credited to our Princess Captain Circle account.
