grapau27 Posted October 27, 2017 #276 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Wow this thread took on a life of its own. I think the cruise lines should do away with the labels and just call it points accumulated. I hate seeing special seats or lines. The loyalty program should be about points for prices on cruises only. They created this situation and should fix it. Some posts on this thread were mean to the OP Cruiselines and passengers like the loyalty system,we certainly have enjoyed using the DL. I don't see any reason to do away with it and i am assuming by your post you are not a loyalty member or you would be happy to accept aby perks you have earned.

Rare island lady Posted October 27, 2017 #279 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Is this the guy with the fake hair? Yup. I normally would have thought it was comical (their made up pins) but was not impressed at the way he barged up to the front of the line at MDR breakfast, barked at the waiters, etc. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted October 27, 2017 #280 Share Posted October 27, 2017 I'm so glad you got to meet them. I knew they were going to be on your sailing. They're on for the next three 4 night sailings on MJ. I brought these 2 up earlier in this thread and was criticized heavily for it. The crew is focused on the badges and treat them as such. On my sailing I couldn't even get a second cup of coffee at breakfast because 2 waiters and the head waiter were catering to them. And that was exactly what they were doing at breakfast on our sailing also. Very shameful. They are quite rude and demanding to the staff. To the not so observant, this couple (basically it is him, not her) would present a bad image as Pinnacles. Not nice at all. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted October 27, 2017 #281 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Holy Moly. That is a new low. Does the LA know what they're up to? I would think apparently so, since she knew exactly which ones were actual Pinnacles (there were 5 on our sailing...including two brand new shiny ones! ;)).

Rare island lady Posted October 27, 2017 #282 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Hope those guilty Pinnacle Club fakers never wear those badges again. I would have loved to see their faces when they were called out. Otherwise, sure hope you are having a great cruise on the MJ. Thanks we did!! Was a great little cruise, except for having to miss Coco Cay (not the ship's fault) due to high winds. Actually we have been extremely lucky as this is our first time we missed it at 15 or more visits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted October 27, 2017 #283 Share Posted October 27, 2017 I just want to add a reason why the Diamond member should not go into the regular line. The Diamond member should definitely enter the Diamond line, because if some passengers walked up for customer service, the people would have to wait to be helped if they were not eligible for the Diamond customer service line. I simply don't see that separate line at GS any longer. It is all one line now, or so it was on the last 5-6 cruises I have been on. :confused: Though to those who were complaining about those separate lines, have they ever seen the first class separate lines at an airport check in? Hmmmm...;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oak Hill Cruisers Posted October 27, 2017 #285 Share Posted October 27, 2017 This thread is now making us think of this: The Stolen Valor Act of 2013 amends the federal criminal code to rewrite provisions relating to fraudulent claims about military service to subject to a fine, imprisonment for not more than one year, or both for an individual who, with intent to obtain money, property, or other tangible benefit, fraudulently holds himself or herself out to be a recipient of: a Medal of Honor (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard) a Distinguished Service Cross, a Navy Cross, an Air Force Cross, a Silver Star, a Purple Heart, a Combat Infantryman's Badge, a Combat Action Badge, a Combat Medical Badge, a Combat Action Ribbon, a Combat Action Medal, or any replacement or duplicate medal for such medal as authorized by law.

Milwaukee Eight Posted October 27, 2017 #292 Share Posted October 27, 2017 My wife has just reminded me there was a suite line at GS on Freedom in June. I agree. I am absolutely sure one was on Allure Jan/Feb this year. I thought but not 100% sure one was on Serenade as well. We seldom go to GS much. Both times was for a pen to fill out customs forms.

Rare sprint180 Posted October 27, 2017 #297 Share Posted October 27, 2017 My interpretation? The fact that you’re even bringing it up means you’re flaunting your status. Kind of what I was thinking. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milwaukee Eight Posted October 27, 2017 #299 Share Posted October 27, 2017 In all our cruises, the only reason we have needed to go to GS was to get a pen, twice, to fill out custom forms. Now that they are no longer required, we will probably not need to go again. I always wonder why the long lines at GS??
