gerelmx Posted January 31, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 31, 2018 How early does the booking have to be made to get the extra points? how many are granted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted February 1, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I'm unfamiliar with this promotion. Where did you hear about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHEZMARYLOU Posted February 1, 2018 #3 Share Posted February 1, 2018 We book early 90% of the time and have never gotten extra points, as far as I can recall. We were among the first, if not the first, to book the round trip to Hawaii in October 2019 and no offer of extra points. Do you have more information?

Northern Aurora Posted February 1, 2018 #4 Share Posted February 1, 2018 We have booked cruises literally on the day they were released, and also have never received any additional "points" (does the OP mean loyalty points in the Captain's Club?) for doing so. So I also am curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SetU2 Posted February 1, 2018 #5 Share Posted February 1, 2018 No extra points for booking early but if you throw in a cabin for me you can have my points! [emoji12] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fouremco Posted February 1, 2018 #6 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I'm another VERY early booker who has never received (or heard of) points for doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetiredCruiser2015 Posted February 1, 2018 #7 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Very curious about these points as I book very early too and have never heard of extra points. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lastdance Posted February 1, 2018 #8 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I only wish there was such a thing as extra points for booking early. The first hour they are released, I book the cabin I love! Please come back and share where you heard or found this information. I know that there have been some limited offers where there were some extra points given...I believe it was an extra half a point for each point...I remember calling Captain's Club and asking about this special that did not last very long. I believe it was in the fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkjretired Posted February 1, 2018 #9 Share Posted February 1, 2018 How early does the booking have to be made to get the extra points?how many are granted? I only remember once that they actually gave extra points for booking by a particular date. This was about 4 years ago and they gave 25 points if you booked at some future time. I received those points in addition to the regular points for the cruise. Would point out that only saw this once and this is obviously not a regular promotion. Here's a short thread from 2014 with some explanation. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1957197&highlight=extra+Captains+Club+points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
like2cruise Posted February 1, 2018 #10 Share Posted February 1, 2018 NCL does this early booking promotion...perhaps that is what you thinking of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just a promotion on at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggertastic Posted February 1, 2018 #12 Share Posted February 1, 2018 NCL does this early booking promotion...perhaps that is what you thinking of? NCL stopped that last year, no more extra for booking 9 months before. Celebrity on the other hand I remember did a promotion in 2012 but never had any extra early booking points at any other time.

davekathy Posted February 1, 2018 #13 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Early bookers here and have never heard of receiving extra points for booking early. Not a bad idea though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikel Posted February 1, 2018 #14 Share Posted February 1, 2018 The only extra points I can recall this year was for booking with Choice air. That promotion end of November beginning of December, only lasted a couple of weeks. I called when I found out and it was two weeks after it was over ----no way would they give it to me.
