Status match question

Recommended Posts

We did our first MSC last year on Divina, status matched as Black because of our NCL Platinum Plus. Now I read on the MSC website, "

Status will be matched only once per passenger. :

Does this mean we were Black for that first cruise and are now just "welcome guests"? We booked a cruise for March on Seaside and again on Divina in 2019 thinking we were Black members. Did I just misunderstand the status match program? I've added the link for where I found the info.

I think what they mean is if for example when you first request a status match you become a MSC Gold member you cannot several months later request another status match to a higher tier because you have attained a higher level in another cruise line's program.

Your status is for 3 years, each time you take a cruise the 3 years date will reset.

Please help...trying to status match my RCCL Diamond to my MSC cruise in October, 2018. I am having a problem with how to do this. I have yahoo mail & received an email from RCCL confirming my Diamond status but can't get that email to link with the MSC form. I have called MSC to see if I could email them direct from my yahoo mail & they gave me an email to use but it is not working. I also tried to email them from their " contact us" site on their web page, but that will not work, keeps telling me I need to add booking number (which I did) & reason for email (which I did). NEED ADVISE AS TO HOW TO CONTACT THE VOYAGERS CLUB BY PHONE OR EMAIL.

Just save the email as a doc on your computer. Then attach it to the MSC form. When I did status match.... I just scanned my Carnival Platinum sail and sign card from a recent cruise and a copy of my Drivers License (so they had my picture). Then I attached both to the MSC form. Within 24 hours I had my status match and voyagers number

I took a photo of my Carnival Diamond Card and emailed that photo to MSC's Voyager address and got my match (Black) that way..

Just take a print screen of the e-mail and send the pic to MSC or take a pic of an old Seapass card. I have done both and both works.

Hi, is there a limit on the number of nights cruise you can take where you can match loyalty schemes, also if you have status with 2 cruise lines, can you do one for each

 

You can only match to one scheme, so choose the one which will give you the best match.

 

There's no limit on the number of nights once you've matched.

There is no Sapphire level in NCL. It's Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Platinum plus, Ambassador
Airline loyalty status cannot be matched. Only your latest cruise or hotel loyalty status is eligible for the MSC status match.
