cocacola86 Posted July 8, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted July 8, 2015 So let's say you do the 3 day and go on a 4 day, does that work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newtoncruise Posted July 8, 2015 #4 Share Posted July 8, 2015 They mean nothing until you get to diamond when you get free happy hours every night . Up until that exhaulted level you might get a few free spends in the casino and 10% off drinks and WIFI They are loyalty rewards. You need to show loyalty over a lot of cruises to get any worthwhile benefits. However, Royal Caribbean is a good line anyway.......so enjoy the mine.....and diamonds are forever.......

cruisenfever Posted July 8, 2015 #6 Share Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) What're they like, if you book a 3 and 4 day how does it work for a first time RC cruiser and what kind of benefits would you get. I looked online and found the site, but I'm not sure. Check out the C&A section of the RCI website http://www.royalcaribbean.com/cas/ Go to the bottom of the page and click on any ribbon and it will show you what is offered. In addition, here is a list of Current Listing of Exclusive Onboard Offers by C&A Level These offers, determined by your C&A level, are loaded onto your SeaPass account and can be used during the cruise. We've got 20 days with Carnival I thought you get 1 point for every day sailed You earn 1 point for each night and an extra point if you are booked in a Junior Suite or above.

Clarea Posted July 8, 2015 #7 Share Posted July 8, 2015 So let's say you do the 3 day and go on a 4 day, does that work Yes, the 3 day would make you a Gold level member. It usually takes Royal a week or so to update your points, so if the 4 day was a couple of weeks after the 3 day, you should get your Gold perks on the 4 day.

cocacola86 Posted July 8, 2015 Author #8 Share Posted July 8, 2015 We have the Anthem booked, but I'm not comfortable spending 4000 anymore, I was when I booked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted July 8, 2015 #9 Share Posted July 8, 2015 We have the Anthem booked, but I'm not comfortable spending 4000 anymore, I was when I booked it. I feel the same way about the high prices on the newest ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cocacola86 Posted July 8, 2015 Author #14 Share Posted July 8, 2015 We found on Carnival that there wasn't to many perks, for short would you recommend Enchantment, Majesty or the Brilliance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted July 8, 2015 #15 Share Posted July 8, 2015 We found on Carnival that there wasn't to many perks, for short would you recommend Enchantment, Majesty or the Brilliance In order of my preference, without regard to itinerary: Brilliance, Enchantment, Majesty.

cocacola86 Posted July 8, 2015 Author #16 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Brilliance goes to Cozumel, GC, or key west, Enchantment for a 4 day, Nassau, Coco Cay and Keywest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted July 8, 2015 #17 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Brilliance goes to Cozumel, GC, or key west, Enchantment for a 4 day, Nassau, Coco Cay and Keywest. I prefer the Brilliance itinerary too. The other ships don't even get to the Caribbean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocacola86 Posted July 9, 2015 Author #18 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I think the bigger ships isn't really cruising if that makes any sense. The smaller ships seems more intimate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTruthCanHurt Posted July 9, 2015 #21 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I would agree that the perks are really not very good until you get to diamond. Once you are plat or emerald you get slight discounts on your cruises, but to be honest anymore most of those discounts are not combinable with the sales, and in many cases the cruise websites have better deals without your status then with it. If your preference is for the smaller ships then Royal certainly has many to choose from. I wont tell you why I like the bigger ones better because that's not the point of your post. Definitely sign up for crown and anchor but don't expect any amazing offers until you are much higher up the food chain. (BTW it's the same with airlines and hotels as well) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocacola86 Posted July 9, 2015 Author #22 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I already signed up for it, before my first cruise. We've only done the Breeze, Valor and Conquest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
330searay Posted July 9, 2015 #23 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Just curious, is there any particular reason you are looking to cruise RCL instead of sticking with carnival? Carnival is on my bucket list .thanks. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocacola86 Posted July 9, 2015 Author #24 Share Posted July 9, 2015 DW said Carnival has good food but lack of food options, lack of restaurants, the Dream class is better than the smaller ships, the layout sucks cause the galley blocks decks where you have to go up stairs and down to get to places.

Iluvcruising2 Posted July 9, 2015 #25 Share Posted July 9, 2015 We only really enjoyed C&A benefits when we hit Diamond, largely because of the Lounge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
