WindsorFred Posted December 23, 2015 Author #26 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Personally I wouldn't worry about it. Spend more time planning the trip itself and less time worrying about "status." Sent from my iPad using Forums Trip is planned already.Not worried about "status" as such but would sure be nice to get Platinum embarkation.

Doggielover68 Posted December 23, 2015 #27 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Trip is planned already.Not worried about "status" as such but would sure be nice to get Platinum embarkation. I never thought it made much of a difference other than the special lounge. We are only gold right now and never have FTTF and we still are one of the first ones getting lunch by noon. I guess some things just matter more to some than others :) Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky2 Posted December 23, 2015 #28 Share Posted December 23, 2015 (edited) So you and others have reported but Carnival says different! I was going to suggest you check your luggage tags. However, my luggage tags that had PRIORITY on them no longer has Priority on them. There is another thread re. this and I guess it's another CCL glitch. Also my Platinum status is no longer listed on my boarding pass. Glad I printed out the luggage tags with PRIORITY on them. The boarding pass does have PRIORITY on the top. By the way, we turned platinum on our 9th cruise when we were doing a B2B. This was the year that they changed from 10 cruises to # of days. We still only had 72 days at the end of our 10th cruise. We had 2 6-day cruises and the rest were 7 & 8 day. Edited December 23, 2015 by Sparky2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why but I guess it is what it is.Was so looking forward to the much shorter line at embarkation finally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WindsorFred Posted December 23, 2015 Author #31 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Did you check your luggage tags? Yes, no "Priority" on either. Carnival reps all said that 2nd leg would not change till we completed the first leg but when we did we would be Plat on the 2nd leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camarowesley Posted December 24, 2015 #32 Share Posted December 24, 2015 This is totally Incorrect! You become Platinum on the Second Cruise Not the First One!!Mike We turned platinum on our 2nd leg of a B2B, but were recognized as platinum along with the benefits on our first leg.

Just an update, checked again last night and we are "Priority" for both legs. Guess it pays to keep checking. Thanks to all who replied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
