Elite card use on other cruise lines

[Ronnie1a]

MSC cruise lines have the equivalent to the Princess Elite card, called the Black card. It actually gives more perks than the Elite card does. If you have an Elite card they will give you a Black card with all its perks when you book with them. This is new to me. Do any other cruise lines do this?

I think they're the only one.

This is the only line that I've heard of doing it. And it is a "one time only" situation--good only on one cruise. However, if you and your traveling companion are both Elite, you can use each CC number once to get the Black Card status twice.

So how does MSC verify your elite status? I would think that each cruise line keeps their customer information private.

I sent them a screen capture of my elite status from the Princess website.

It’s not just for one cruise. If you take at least one cruise with MSC every 3 years, you can keep your matched status forever (and add more points to it, in case they add levels beyond Black in the future).

We enjoyed the Black Card status enormously. Very smart for MSC to do this. I am sure many others tried them for the first time with this promo.

All of the RCCL cruise lines have status match so if your diamond on RCCL you are equivilant on Celebrity. They have by far the best program.

Could you imagine if Princess did that, cruise critic would explode, I could see riots on deck.
