firemanbobswife Posted June 10, 2015 #4 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Hahahahahahahaha! This has to be the funniest threads ever. The only difference between Red and Gold is a measly drink coupon for the last night after 5PM. Take your time getting to Gold. It's nothing special.

falkcor Posted June 10, 2015 #6 Share Posted June 10, 2015 a free bottle of water? a bottle of water and a different colored card, so you can feel 'special' in your 'elite' status. :rolleyes: in short, NO :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cantthinkofanythingfun Posted June 10, 2015 #8 Share Posted June 10, 2015 red is a pretty color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creef1014 Posted June 10, 2015 Author #9 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Thanks everyone. I figured I had to be missing something but apparently and unfortunately I'm not... Carnival might as well upgrade all the Reds to Golds and make us feel special. Think of the savings when you have one less category of nothingness to manage.

beachbum53 Posted June 10, 2015 #10 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Any benefit to being Red VIFP? Yes. If you book a group for your next cruise, and since you are now an "experienced" cruiser, you can be your group's leader. Just imagine how your group will be in awe of your knowledge and wisdom.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Towel Critter Posted June 10, 2015 #16 Share Posted June 10, 2015 The benefit is that being Red you have obviously discovered cruising and enjoyed it enough to go back for seconds. That is a pretty good perk. Red level is astronomically better than no level. Happy cruising! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitamin_Sea Posted June 10, 2015 #17 Share Posted June 10, 2015 If there is I cant seem to find it. It looks like all the perks have been withheld until you reach Gold status. a fine and dandy one liter bottle of water :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilgr Posted June 10, 2015 #18 Share Posted June 10, 2015 You can reach gold in 3 cruises, not really that hard. Not sure what perks should be expected for only 3 cruises. I fly Delta all the time and they don't give me anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitamin_Sea Posted June 10, 2015 #19 Share Posted June 10, 2015 (edited) being Gold isnt much better then red actually. Big deal, we get water, a pin and a drink coupon. Platinum is wear the benefits kick in. But you need 75 points Edited June 10, 2015 by limoguy1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudechuck Posted June 10, 2015 #22 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I never even got my pin. I was crushed. :rolleyes: I'm not really complaining. I have "Mr. Sancho" (coconut monkeyhead in my avatar). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMSACE6 Posted June 10, 2015 #24 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I can see it now; Carnival's next vifp change. They mix red and gold together to make an orange level. Everyone gets a bottle of water and an orange plastic pin, but they will find a lame reason to discontinue the free drink coupon (that could only be used after 5pm on the last evening of the cruise:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
