Doug S Posted February 15, 2017 #51 Share Posted February 15, 2017 My favorite was my last LOS cruise in December where a Pinnacle felt it necessary to put his pin on his pool t-shirt. I can understand being proud of your status, and maybe even wearing a pin at the cocktail hour, but I found it a bit odd to wear it 24/7. Wanted to ask if he slept with it on.

Ashland Posted February 15, 2017 #52 Share Posted February 15, 2017 To be frank, that's YOUR problem, not the wearer of such items. You have no idea why anyone wears anything- you just ASSume. I don't get why people feel that they have to judge others so harshly. Or why you even bother caring what others wear or do. Spend so much money and effort to go on vacation, and worry about others? What a waste of time. I have a "right" to voice how I feel personally....re-read my post "their choice"...just not mine. If you don't agree or like what my opinion is just change lanes and move on...no need to tail-gate me :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crusinthrough Posted February 15, 2017 #53 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I take it you aren't D+. For me, we just love to cruise and D+ happened along the way. And yes, I'll gladly accept 250 to 375 off my balcony, pictures, drinks, meals, and laundry without a charge. It's nice that we are afforded amenities for doing something we would do anyway. You obviously missed the point. The poster did not downplay the benefits of being a diamond plus. I doubt most people would see Diamond Plus on a shirt and automatically start thinking wow this person has "250 to 375 off balcony, pictures, drinks, meals, and laundry without a charge". Most are thinking what does Diamond Plus mean and/or why would someone wear a shirt with the logo and "Diamond Plus" without trying to be pretentious . Of course, to each their own and what they wear. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a Pinnacle headed into the spa on Oasis with the Pinnacle pin on her bathrobe (Crown and Anchor bathrobe, of course). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like all the other judgememtals. As a person who uses a lanyard, I really don't care what anyone thinks about it. Just like it's a waste of my time worrying about D+ shirts.

papaflamingo Posted February 16, 2017 #58 Share Posted February 16, 2017 It wasn't "official".Know a few P folks who actually have RCL ties and dare I say this but it's true RCL boxer shorts. ...K.O.:) So, after reading all the posts, no one asked, so I have to... how did you find out someone had "RCL boxer shorts?"

Deck_Diva Posted February 17, 2017 #62 Share Posted February 17, 2017 I have used lanyard for the convenience from the very start of our cruises and I shall continue to use it until they eliminate the use of the sea pass card.

lucymorgan Posted February 17, 2017 #66 Share Posted February 17, 2017 I usually wear my card on a lanyard. However, if I have a gold card, I often check to see that mine is turned so it isn't visible, because it is no ones' business what type of cabin I am sailing in. Frankly the card is a pain!

FireStation46 Posted February 17, 2017 #67 Share Posted February 17, 2017 I am fine with the card and landyard. I have not noticed when anyone remarked on the color of my card. Nor do I care if they care:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of pointing the gun/scanner at your sea pass, point at your face. Tier level can be determined by the # tattoos .

Rare ReneeFLL Posted February 17, 2018 #73 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Sorry...but I find advertising your C&A level ridiculous as well as wearing your gold SeaPass on a lanyard (always making sure it's seen). However for those that this makes them feel special....their choice...I prefer to keep a lower profile Maybe some people do wear them on lanyards so they can be seen, but I think most people have them on lanyards for the convince. Actually, I think a lot of people wear lanyards because it's an easy way to keep a card handy. Judging by the number of lost cards we've turned in (at least one per cruise) I'm guessing a lanyard is a pretty good idea. I don't always have a pocket or carry a bag. And do people really scope out the cards on lanyards? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Agreed. This is what we use. We have the clear ones, but started using them before we ever started cruising. I started using one for when I would go snorkling looking for clean up crew for my reef tank. I needed to carry my fishing license (required to have it with you), drivers license (also some form of id is required) and a car or boat key. I use it on the ship with my seapass card, cash and a drivers license. I just keep the extra stuff in there for when we go into port. When in port it gets dropped inside my shirt. The lanyards are nice, but that won't carry my other stuff. I guess if it's turned in the right direction someone would be able to see the color of the card. We aren't even diamond yet, but will be after our next cruise. I will probably continue to use them forever since I don't always have pockets. http://www.diversdirect.com/scuba-diving/skinny-dry-case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
