cruizinrican Posted June 1, 2016 #3 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Where do you see these premier or ultra premier offers? Ive never seen them before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topspin1267 Posted June 1, 2016 #4 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Where do you see these premier or ultra premier offers? Ive never seen them before. They can be found under your VIFP special offers online. In order to qualify for the Ultra offer you must have qualified for and taken one of the Premier cruises during the year. To get the premier offers you need to accumulate at least 7500 points in the casino during the previous 12 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3LegHog Posted June 1, 2016 #5 Share Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) I seen the offer in our VFIP section and received a mailer in the mail yesterday. We booked the 27 Nov date on the Breeze. This will be our second ULTRA cruise. We have never been on a regular Premiere cruise, but i can say the ULTRA is a really great time. They have some fantastic giveaways and events. Usually get daily goodies as well (Strawberries in your room, bottle of wine, Steakhouse comp, etc) Last year talking to others on the ULTRA, they say they fill up quick, so if you are on the fence, book it! it's a great time.

Elaine5715 Posted June 11, 2016 #7 Share Posted June 11, 2016 this is exact same for a premier cruise, the draws for cash each evening, games take it or leave it and many others, strawberries, wine, special gift at end maybe towels, portfolios, hot seat promos, slot tourneys for premier guests only etc BUT.. what makes premier and ultra different.... i cant figure it out.. maybe someone knows i have a premier and an ultra offer now... they are even worded differently, sure the sail dates may differ but what makes one of them an ultra... anyone know? The Ultras have higher $$ gifts. You need to have sailed on a Premier to qualify for an Ultra invite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evandbob Posted June 11, 2016 #8 Share Posted June 11, 2016 The Ultras have higher $$ gifts. You need to have sailed on a Premier to qualify for an Ultra invite. My ULTRA offer does not mention casino cash, just "up to" $100.000 in prizes and give aways. On a premium booking, I just go to the casino cashier's window and get my gambling "rebate". Is it the same on an Ultra? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3LegHog Posted June 11, 2016 #10 Share Posted June 11, 2016 My offer has the free room and casino cash. Same as last year. Since I have not been on an regular Premier cruise, I don't know the difference. Last year, others said the prizes were much better on the ULTRA. Apple Watches, iPads, iPhones, MacBooks, etc. Everyone one with the ULTRA invite (not their guest/spouse) was guaranteed one of these prizes. So, i assume it's the same format as the Premier, just better prizes and more money given away. The 'grand prize' that was given was the ELITE cruise that included Cruise in a suite, Spa, Excursions, etc. If I had to choose between Premier and Ultra, I would do the ULTRA.

illinoisfive Posted June 12, 2016 Author #11 Share Posted June 12, 2016 If a husband and wife BOTH receive the Ultra Premiere Cruise offer and book the trip, don't BOTH people receive the $$ and ALL of the gifts including the big dollar items even though they share the same cabin? That is what we have been told. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what we have been told. I was on an Ultra cruise last year and met a couple that were both sent the Ultra offer and they both received a high end gift. You would have to check with the casino department about the cash back, as it is based on your individual play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Runaway Parent Posted May 31, 2017 #14 Share Posted May 31, 2017 So, not being a gambler, how does one accumulate 7500 points in the casino? Is it based on how much you play, win or lose? Or how much you've spent? Just curious. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
