skt4cruise Posted July 11, 2018 #1 Share Posted July 11, 2018 What does this mean? Does MSC match your status from other lines, example, we are Elite on Celebrity going YC on MSC for first time. Help on this appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinhawks Posted July 11, 2018 #2 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Yes they will match your status from another line or even hotel to the level that is comparable on MSC. It only takes about a week after you send them the proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted July 11, 2018 #3 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I am still waiting submitted mine on 6/30, can you call to check status? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveOKC Posted July 11, 2018 #4 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I am still waiting submitted mine on 6/30, can you call to check status? Mine took about a week and I submitted it around the end of June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipgeeks Posted July 11, 2018 #6 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Have any of you used your TA to do this for you? I am not tech savvy enough to "attach scanned copy of current loyalty card" etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george35 Posted July 11, 2018 #7 Share Posted July 11, 2018 My wife got status change in 1 week but for me it took 4 weeks, for some reason they had no record of my D+ on RCL. I spent at LEAST 4 hours on the phone ( not all 1 day ) but it finally came thru & now I guard it with my life. Be on the Seaside in OCT. george35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipgeeks Posted July 11, 2018 #8 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Alternately, can the application be done by mail? I could probably get photocopies of my RCI cards or whatever is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted July 11, 2018 #9 Share Posted July 11, 2018 just called a travel agent will see if they can do the work on this, I can get a grand suite on Liberty of the seas cheaper but want to check out yacht club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikew0805 Posted July 12, 2018 #10 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I am still waiting submitted mine on 6/30, can you call to check status? Wow.. I did mine last November and it was done the next day. I did my partners a couple weeks ago, and it took three days. I would call them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zclake88 Posted July 12, 2018 #11 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Have any of you used your TA to do this for you? I am not tech savvy enough to "attach scanned copy of current loyalty card" etc. Shipgeeks, perhaps I can help out. If you have a smartphone, you can simply take a picture of your loyalty cards, e-mail it to yourself, then download it to your desktop. Once it's on your desktop, you can go to the MSC website, fill out the information, click the attach button, and find the image on your desktop. An alternative method would be: if you have an e-mail regarding your loyalty status with another cruiseline, take a screenshot either on your phone or on your computer. You can upload that as well. There are a bunch of tutorials for how to take a screenshot, just google it based on which type of device you're using (mac, PC, iPhone, android). Worst case scenario, you can e-mail me (my username here @gmail.com), and I can plug in your information for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skt4cruise Posted July 13, 2018 Author #12 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Yesterday I took a screenshot of Captains Club page, showing our name, number & status, hope this is good enough. Attached to MSC form and whoof its gone! SCREENSHOT 1 Press Shift-Command (⌘)-3. 2 Find the screenshot as a .png file on your desktop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Best Cat Mom Posted July 13, 2018 #13 Share Posted July 13, 2018 You can also use your loyalty programs with hotels -- that will be better if your hotel status is higher than your cruise line status. I did not realize that MSC matched with hotel status until the rep with MSC mentioned it when I was on the phone with them. Go with whatever you have that is highest. I used my Marriott Lifetime Platinum and received MSC Black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skt4cruise Posted July 14, 2018 Author #14 Share Posted July 14, 2018 I asked on another thread about status and found out we will be Black on MSC from Celebrity Elite! Now if we just get the ok in time...28 days to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GORDONCHICK Posted July 15, 2018 #15 Share Posted July 15, 2018 I asked on another thread about status and found out we will be Black on MSC from Celebrity Elite! Now if we just get the ok in time...28 days to go! Having any status with MSC gives you a 5% discount on your cruise. Since you're so close, I doubt they'd refund but it's worth asking about.
