George C Posted December 22, 2016 #4 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Only 1 year to go from getting Diamond to Diamond plus congrats We are not totally loyal but also will be diamond plus Nov 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser-M Posted December 23, 2016 #5 Share Posted December 23, 2016 That's awesome we made diamond plus but have yet to get one pin. I'm not complaining really! We haven't gotten our crystal block for 140 cruise points either, we love to cruise and hopefully we can for many years to come!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't gotten our crystal block for 140 cruise points either, we love to cruise and hopefully we can for many years to come!:D We got our emerald pins but no others. Not diamond plus until the next cruise. No block at 140 points. Very inconsistent but as I am trying to declutter I don't really care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sellwingri Posted December 23, 2016 #9 Share Posted December 23, 2016 We received our 140 point block on a recent Liberty OTS cruise but never received diamond pins. It was so heavy that we had to put it in our carry on to avoid paying extra for luggage on our flight home. We'll hit diamond plus on our March cruise on Serenade. We'll see if we get anything.

TonyL128 Posted December 24, 2016 Author #15 Share Posted December 24, 2016 It took us 2 years to go from gold to D. One more year to D+. Then 3 years or so to Pinnacle. Should we retire early to Florida, we might be able to reach Pinnacle sooner. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank808 Posted December 24, 2016 #16 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Took our first cruise in july of 2014. Loved it so much we cancelled our disneyworld plans and stayed on freedom for 2 weeks instead. Will definitely try other cruise lines but that will have to wait to mid 2018 at least. But not before hitting d plus on our oasis cruise in oct 2017. Pinnacle will probably be not for another 7 years when we can really cruise like some of you cruise critic members.

I have accepted the challenge! Thank you! We plan to try other lines like HAL once we hit Elite/Diamond on Celebrity and RCL respectively so the climb to the next level on both these programs will be long and slow but it doesn't matter. Cruising to us is one of the best ways to holiday with two young kids in tow - you really save on the need to pack / unpack!

TonyL128 Posted December 24, 2016 Author #19 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Yea, it's not about getting the status, it's about cruising, enjoying the ships and ports. But getting status is a good benefit too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oak Hill Cruisers Posted December 24, 2016 #20 Share Posted December 24, 2016 In addition to status reciprocity to Celebrity, you can do status reciprocity with MSC (and some other lines). Diamond & Diamond+ will get you Black Card status on MSC which has some nice perks like chocolate covered fruit, a bottle of wine, chocolate ships, priority embarkation/disembarkation and the like. If we didn't cruise so much on the other lines, we would be much closer to Pinnacle than we are now. :-( But we like to try the other cruise lines -- after all, one does get tired with the diamond & concierge lounges and the DIY cappuccinos. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
