Is this combinable with other OBC like WOW or Next Cruise?

No. Cannot be combined with any C&A perk or booking promo.

Takes less time to email your brokerage statement to RCL Shareholder Benefits than it does to read these boards and figure out what RCL calls "combinable" - and it is the only way you will ever know for sure - nobody on these boards can give you the OBC or deny it either.

After being a member of Crown & Anchor since 1997 and being a shareholder since 2004, I respectfully disagree with your statement above. Most of us that have been Shareholders certainly do know what you can and can not combine.

 

But just as an FYI........All you have to do is go to the RCI homepage and on the bottom click on Investor Relations and then click on Shareholder Benefit and there is no need for an email because what I have highlighted in red below is exactly the response sent from Investor Relations.

 

1. Who is eligible for this benefit?

Any shareholder holding a minimum of 100 RCL shares at time of sailing.

 

2. What is the benefit?

$250 Onboard Credit per Stateroom on Sailings of 14 or more nights.

$200 Onboard Credit per Stateroom on Sailings of 10 to 13 nights.

$100 Onboard Credit per Stateroom on Sailings of 6 to 9 nights.

$50 Onboard Credit per Stateroom on Sailings of 5 nights or less.

4. I am sailing with my family and some friends. Can they redeem the benefit too?

The benefit is only available for the stateroom in which the shareholder (with a minimum of 100 shares) is sailing. Onboard credit is applied on a per stateroom basis, double occupancy. Only one shareholder credit per stateroom on any one sailing. If shares are held jointly, 100 shares are required for each onboard credit request on any one sailing.

Yes, you may request this benefit multiple times-as often as you sail on Royal Caribbean International, Celebrity Cruises or Azamara Club Cruises. (excludes any charter sailings or Celebrity Xpeditions sailings)

The benefit is NOT available to company employees, travel agents, tour conductors and/or others utilizing complimentary or reduced-rate cruise fares. Benefit is not combinable when using inter-line rates or onboard chartered sailings.

 

7. Is benefit transferrable?

No. Benefit is non-transferable. Only the stateroom that the shareholder is traveling in will be eligible for the onboard credit.

Benefit is not combinable with other onboard credit offers, general loyalty offers, “dollars off/wave” promotions, savings certificates, onboard chartered sailings, certain group sailings, certain price programs or bookings made at a reduced rate or travel agent rate. Shareholders have the option to choose between the shareholder benefit or the other offer. The Shareholder must own the Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. stock at time of sailing. Onboard credit is calculated in US dollars except on sailings where the onboard currency used is a foreign currency (in which case the onboard credit will be converted at a currency exchange rate determined by the cruise line) and is not redeemable for cash.
