How do on board C&A benefits work on B2B cruises?

[drummerdavebmth]

I have a quick question regarding the benefits you get onboard though the Crown & Anchor program (free drinks, buy one get another free etc...).

 

We are doing a B2B on Ovation of the Seas this week (14th April 3 nights + 17th April 5 nights). We have reached Platinum status on C&A.

 

How do RCI do the onboard C&A benefits for B2B cruises? Will we get the benefits for the 2nd cruise as well as the 1st cruise - or will we have the make the benefits received for the 14th April cruise last for the duration of the 17th April cruise too?

 

I'm hoping that they count it as two separate cruises, so we will get the full C&A benefits for both..........or is that wishful thinking?

It is 2 separate cruises. Everything starts over the second week and the offers will all be loaded on your new Seapass card. :)

each cruise is treated as separate entities so everything will 'reset' since you will be getting a brand spanky new sea pass card. that being said anything that does not get used up on the first cruise will NOT carry over to the second.

Cool....thanks for the clarification. The drinks part of the first cruise C&A benefits will certainly be used at least! :cool:

This goes for any onboard credit as well. While we have seen them roll leftover credit onto the second cruise they may not do so. And when in the same room we have also seen them just continue the bill from the first cruise, adding any new credits so we only got one credit card bill at the end. No rhyme or reason there.

Keep in mind short cruises don't have all the same benefits, but that often applies to the higher tiers

I have never seen EITHER of these things. Nor have I ever read of this before.
