Platinum and Gold in Same Cabin

I will become Platinum on my next Cruise (10/31/2015) and, according to Carnival's website you get the VIFP level that you are advancing to for the entire cruise if it happens in the middle of the cruise. So I am going from Gold to Platinum but will be Platinum from the start.

 

My question is about traveling with a Gold level person. Since Platinum members get priority board can we both board together even though they are Gold? Does anyone have first hand experience with this issue?

 

Thanks for your help.

If you are in the same cabin and print your boarding pass together your gold member will be able to board with you.

I will get my days in on the next cruise, but it will be my 10th cruise. Will I get on as platinum?

 

If you accumulate enough points to change VIFP levels mid cruise you will begin the cruise at the higher level. Not certain how the number of cruises would change that.

I get my number on the last day of the cruise. I thought I read that you become Platinum on the 10 cruise.

This happened to us in San Juan, I hit Platinum, other person did not. We check in together, board together etc. In ports where you tender they can go with you.

Does that also mean that if you are platinum and traveling with a Gold member they get to go to the Special Party and receive the gifts as well?

 

No-the gifts and party are still just for the platinum member.
