joandian Posted May 21, 2017 #151 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Sounds good. Signed as well.Talking about Mariner, I read somewhere that those on the global odyssey might get 2 blocks if in a suite or solo. We will get 2 blocks. We are 2 points away from our next one so with 84 points for the trip... This would make 3 from Mariner. I'm trying to work out if we can manage to find time for a quick 7 day cruise before then.

Rare shipshape sam Posted May 21, 2017 #152 Share Posted May 21, 2017 They look nice, but we skipped getting one. I don't like to dust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted May 21, 2017 #153 Share Posted May 21, 2017 We get our next block in July on Liberty. This will be our first time on her. Does anyone know how they give the blocks to you? Are they presented at the top tier event or do they just show up in you cabin? For once I think it would be fun to have it presented to us. The others we have just showed up in our cabin. Talk to the LA early in the cruise and ask. This is the kind of thing can vary cruise to cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebra36 Posted May 21, 2017 #154 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Considering how much those blocks weigh, probably better off not getting them while on board and just call after cruise to have it mailed out. BTW mine arrived within 2 weeks of calling in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW mine arrived within 2 weeks of calling in. I tend to overpack, and llike another poster, I find them dustables rather than collectibles so I always give mine away. I find someone celebrating a special event, first cruise, anniversary, marriage, etc. They are always very happy to receive it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie FF Posted May 21, 2017 #156 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Our next block is the Pinnacle Stratum. I know that it is sent to you, with your names on it. Does it have the ship name on it, as we don't have a Mariner block? Aussie Frequent Floaters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you ask the LA nicely, they may also give you the normal crystal block too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzinlady1947 Posted May 21, 2017 #159 Share Posted May 21, 2017 I had a very nice experience on Majesty for my 350 point level: received a block, certificate and photo with officers. I think maybe the certificate starts at the 350 mark. That is exactly what happened with us. Gwen [emoji3] Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted May 21, 2017 #160 Share Posted May 21, 2017 It will be presented to you at the top tier event. A photo will also be taken with the LA (Shane) and the HD (John) Nice! Thanks! That was the way they did it on Enchantment also. Little ships do have their perks. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blizzard54 Posted May 21, 2017 #162 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Recently on the Grandeur they present the top 3 be it stratums or blocks. As it happened we were presented at 420 three couples were tied at 350 so they all got presented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kccrzr Posted May 21, 2017 #163 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Congrats on the 350 milestone! :) Sounds like MJ does it right indeed. Thanks. What the MJ lacks in ship amenities, it more than makes up in great personable service. Every day we received some treat in our cabin. Since the cruise was only 4 nights with two ports, we didn't even have much time to miss the bells and whistles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a long, long time since we had been on twin sister Monarch. We really loved the crew on that one! Will be interesting for us to be on MJ for the first time and remember the layout of that class of ship. Happy to hear the crew is outstanding like Monarch was! Looking forward to spending our anniversary on board next week! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding the layout of the ship, it is outdated with a mezzanine level where the elevator closest to our room stopped requiring taking steps up to the customer service/shop level. I think the ship would pose difficulties for someone with mobility issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare island lady Posted June 1, 2017 #175 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Happy Anniversary!!! Tell Shane and JD Hi from Linda and me :) Thanks Ian! :D Absolutely will tell them you said hello! Shane is pretty cool. Found out he is actively looking to start his modeling career. He does always look very dapper! Got invited to dinner with John on formal night. There were five couples, and we had a great time. We ended up being #2 cruisers. What a surprise! Nice presentation of our crystal block last night, with photos and a bottle of actually good quality bubbly this time! :cool: Having a great time! Though I still miss the Latte machine in the DL/CL. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
