leaveitallbehind Posted April 5, 2022 #2 Share Posted April 5, 2022 (edited) No. Here is a link to the program describing each tier's benefits: https://secure.viewer.zmags.com/publication/a54eb4aa#/a54eb4aa/1 (RCCL's C&A Diamond+ / Pinnacle tiers provide a specialty restaurant BOGO) Edited April 5, 2022 by leaveitallbehind 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D C Posted April 5, 2022 #3 Share Posted April 5, 2022 We hit elite after our most recent cruise. DW and I celebrated attaining such a level of status that we have obtained what we once thought out of reach: a free bag of laundry. As near as I can tell, that precious bag of laundry and one port-day access to Persian Garden is the entirety of the practical benefits we found at the end of the rainbow. 10 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, 10% off if you have AI and want to upgrade your beverage package, or a few drinks on your card if you don’t have AI 😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted April 5, 2022 #5 Share Posted April 5, 2022 30% discount if you upgrade wi-fi from surf to stream. 20% discount on a bottle of wine, discount on photo package, 15% discount on spa services and priority tendering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't have the AI the perks/benefits are still nice. We like the priority tendering when we have intinaries that require a tender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen a list of 'Elite Drinks'. Is there one? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose DW may like that on a port day, though I think she's averaged less than 1x per cruise on those times we've been in Aqua. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, there are occasional offers that are not part of the standard benefits, such as this current offer: as one of our valued Captain’s Club members in the Elite tier or above, you’ll save an additional $1,500 on suites and $1,000 on ocean view staterooms when you book your Galapagos vacation by May 31, 2022. That might be a practical, if somewhat limited, benefit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tendering is Belize and Grand Cayman? Can't think of any others off hand. We consider the perks/benefits practical. If AI sticks around in the future. If not there is still the CC internet minutes, unlimited CC HH drinks loaded on your SeaPass card. Not sure when or if the evening CC HH will start back up. Possibly if the AI goes away. East coast, NE/Canada cruises. West coast Pacific Coastal/ Canada cruises comes to mind. Still a great perk/benefit no matter the intinaries if tendering is required. No tickets, no waiting in line. Just show up at the designated time and place and escorted to the tender by the CC host. Great perk/benefit.

Last 7 N cruise wi-fi upgrade saved us $71.40, drink pkg upgrade $17. I had a facial the discount saved $26, DH's massage was reduced by $29. We splurged on a very nice bottle of Caymus saving about $28. The CC benefits saved up about $175, works for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't use the spa (except for the free Persian Garden day, when available), drink wine, or need "premium" drinks. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Elite Coffee House Style breakfast in Tuscan is worth having - very relaxed away from the crowds in the buffet and great views over the stern. Just imagine you now only need another 450 points to reach Elite + where you will get a second free bag of laundry each. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
