spunks Posted January 24, 2021 #1 Share Posted January 24, 2021 We are your tired, your weak, your huddles masses yearning to breathe free (sea air that is and once again sail the bounding main...). We the huddled at the gate masses, yearning, wishing, longing to EVER get to cruise again feel that we ought to get double points for booking at all. Well, not really, but I look at all the "perks" offered by RCCL, CCL, NCL etc wishing against wish that we could take advantage of ANY of them, and just have to hang my head. Annie tries and tries.....booking cruise after cruise only to have them cancelled. So far the light at the end of the tunnel has only been an on coming train. AAARRRGGGGHHHH.....sigh Doug 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mac_tlc Posted January 24, 2021 #2 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Those double point cruises, so far, feel a lot like my $18 drink package cruises...... mac_tlc 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iamcruzin Posted January 24, 2021 #4 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Maybe instead of lift and shift or 125% in FCC they should just do refunds in points. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcur Posted January 24, 2021 #5 Share Posted January 24, 2021 After my Spring Fall 2020 and Spring 2021 cruises were cancelled, I decided to book when I thought Mr. Pcur and I would be vaccinated. May not work out, but for now we are OK. I just made sure they are all booked within the double point window of time. I know a lot of posters here aren't thrilled with this promotion, but I am.

I think the double points promotion is great. Like you, we will be vaccinated shortly and will be looking forward to traveling again in a few months.

smokeybandit Posted January 24, 2021 #7 Share Posted January 24, 2021 At what point do they consider giving points for the canceled cruises? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won’t happen. People would just book cruises knowing they would be cancelled just to get points.

Points only go to those people who elect FCC and those retroactive points are credited when the FCC cruise sails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still won’t happen but you can dream. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
