jovifan78 Posted September 1, 2014 #1 Share Posted September 1, 2014 On our next cruise we will hit 25 days on the 5th day of a 7 day cruise which would put us into gold status. Are we considered gold once we board or will it actually be the next cruise we get credit for it? Just a curious question! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffatsea Posted September 1, 2014 #2 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Congrats! Yes ! You will be gold for your whole cruise!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamrose228 Posted September 1, 2014 #3 Share Posted September 1, 2014 On the Splendor cruise we did in January we came on board with 18 days. We had two cruises not in the system, that totaled 11 days. At home they refused to give us credit for either of the two cruises even though I had a port of cruise photo for a 4 day one. On board I showed the port of call photo and within 6 hours got that credit giving us 4 days (actually they gave us 5) SO we were up to 23, the cruise we were on was 8 days so they issued gold cards since we now were over 25 days, got an invite to the VIFP party, was real happy but would still love the 7 day credit for my 1989 cruise on the Holiday.

Only 348 more days and I'll have my gold card! lol :D We still have 398 or 397 depending on which ticker, Carnival or CC. Finally under 400 days!

med9114u Posted September 2, 2014 #6 Share Posted September 2, 2014 If you go to your cruise docs, it should show you as Gold! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiseelady Posted September 3, 2014 #13 Share Posted September 3, 2014 That is an excellent question, but I thought points are only get added after you complete the cruise. I have 73 points as of now, not including the cruise that I have booked for November of this year. It looks like at 75 points you are in Platinum category. I wonder if they will give me platinum embarkation. My cruise is for 7 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually do the boarding pass last minute, like two days before the cruise. So as it turns out, it stated that I am platinum on it, so I am excited for the extra perks, such as the priority embarkation. This is a great surprise, as I really thought the perks will only come after I complete the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carolinaviking71208 Posted September 3, 2014 #17 Share Posted September 3, 2014 The interesting thing for me is, I have a B2B (8nt/6nt) booked for Nov-Dec 2015. I'll turn gold on 3rd day of the second leg. I recently looked at the docs for both legs and I show gold on both.

NCTribeFan Posted September 3, 2014 #21 Share Posted September 3, 2014 My cruise buddy for the 11/1 cruise has 17 days. I know that because we sailed together (she "forced" me to go on a 5-night cruise on Jubilee in 2001 and I'm the one who is now addicted!) on two 5-night cruises and a 7 night. On our booking confirmation, it still shows her as Red although we're on an 8-night cruise. Yes, Day 25 won't be until the last day, but shouldn't the docs show her as Gold? Do I need to check with her to see if she's "registered" on the VIFP page? I wondered if that was why she hadn't been changed to Gold. I'm sure she'd like to join me at the PG party.
