Not sure you are talking about Princess?  Or a land based casino?

Because Princess does Not use players cards.  We have Medallions.

Yes I know Princess uses medallions. It was in response to getting casino offers for free cruises from a 3rd party company. They want you to send them a copy of your casino players card then they will send free cruise offers.

You might get offers but you will also be on every mailing list in the world

sorry meant to say when you cruise on a 3 night cruise do they still offer the free cruise vouchers or does it need to be a 7 night cruise 

[Kabuki12]

It depends on how many points you get playing.  For a free cabin on a 3 day, you would have to spend a lot of time in the casino.

I’m on a 32 night cruise 🚢 in October so i was thinking it would be better to try on a 3 nighter than a 32 night cruise

I would think so, too.  I wish Princess would be more transparent and forthcoming with information about how many points needed for each category.  

 

I have noticed that it's taking more points for me to get a free cabin and Plus is harder to get.  4,000 used to get a free inside but not anymore that I am seeing.  I had over 6,000 last cruise and got an inside with 250 free play.  I was hoping for a balcony.  The cruise before that I had a little less than 5,000 and only got 600 free play and no cabin.

Was in a back to back in June and both of us did over 5,000 points each week and got bounce back offers of free balcony and $600 free play each

You also have to pay a $200 per person deposit which turns into OBC once you sail

What ship were you on?   It's so inconsistant on what the offer will be.  Some ships are better than others.  I have found the Royal terrible at comps and the Ruby not the best.

[CalLuvsCrusingToo]

I did a 4 day and 5 day cruise back in Feb. (back to back)

Did 10k points per trip, and Neither one got a bounceback offer!

Was mislead after the first cruise, host said they would combine points?

Nooooo they didn't.

After the second cruise and NO bounce back (Come back & Play offer)

she then told me, Oh their Not doing that anymore on shorter cruises.

What?

I felt deceived, but also think she didn't know what she was talking about.

So buyer beware.... if you are playing on a shorter than a 7 day cruise?  You may Not get a Come back and play offer!

And I believe you posted you received Bounceback offers on cruise that was 7 days+

 

They were wondering about getting Bounceback voucher for LESS than 7 days cruises.

 

In our experience Princess has NOT given Come back & play offers for short cruises.

 

If you got bounceback on Short cruise?  Kindly post details, length, etc.

That really stinks.  They do not combine points on a B2B and the offers don't come until the end of the 2nd leg.   Some people on fb reported that the first leg wasn't even counted.   

 

Hosts seem pretty unaware of what is going on. They have no control over the offers.  There seems to be so much inconsistency to the offers and absolutely no transparency. 

 

Did you get offers after the cruise?   They are usually better than what you get on the ship but not always.  Again, no consistency.     Hopefully, you will receive some offers for a balcony and 600 FP.

[Kabuki12]

A poster on fb reported that she had 14,000 points on the Discovery on a 4 day and did not get an offer. She emailed oceanplayersclub.com and received her CBS offer 3 weeks later.

 

I also looked at my VIP offers and there is a VIP 4 day cruise.   I could not imagine cutting out CBS offers on VIP cruises.

we took B2B cruise in Dec 2021.  It was 7 day and 4 day.  Did not get offer after the 7 day, only at the end of the cruise.

it was a good offer of balcony and $600 free play, but we already had 5 cruises booked for 2022 and did not use the offer

Yes it did suck, and I felt deceived.

I did Not get a Come back & Play offer after first, Or second short cruise, b2b, 

Nothing. So basically the First and Second leg points Didn't count. 

Didn't matter how many points you made, it Didn't get you Any CB&P offer!

 

Yes, I still got plenty of offers, but lately I've only gotten Princ Plus perks included

on Come back & play offers. Those are the only ones I've been booking.

 

Yeah, it used to be the other way around.... I got better offers After cruises.

But not anymore... I seem to get Plus included with CB&P offer after 7+ day cruises Only.

The casino has cut back on PP.  It looks like only some of those that earn mini suites can get PP and a lot of time they don't.   More people sailing so they are no longer hungry to fill the ships and subsequently offers dry up.  

 

I don't gamble enough for a mini suite and can't see spending that amount of money in the casino.  Free inside works for me as I sail solo. I never used the CBS offers and used to get better offers every couple of weeks.    All cruises under 20 days were free.  Now only a small percentage of the cruises apply and I dont get as many offers.  Even FP is less than what it used to be.  

 

 

[jonnyenglish1]

A comparison of recent offers;

 

I went on a 4 day trip in April 23, earned 4000+ points and was offered free interior, for up to 12 nights free princess plus and $150 freeplay.

 

I have just came back from this free cruise, earned 8000+ points. My CBS offer this time was free interior up to 15 days, $250 freeplay. No princess plus. Early jackpot on the cruise limited my losses to gain 8000 plus points.

 

Being from the UK, if i can utilise it on one of the sun princess 10 days in Feb/March I may take up to keep flight costs reasonable.
