irishgal432 Posted July 5, 2022 #1 Share Posted July 5, 2022 I became Prime last year and have a cruise cetificate. It expires Mar 2023. Can I take a cruise after that date if I book before Mar 2023 or does it have to be taken by Mar 2023? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarmo Posted July 5, 2022 #6 Share Posted July 5, 2022 From my experience you must sail before the expiration date. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, but nothing ever shows up in there other than a 100 off a cruise. What kind of offers do you see as a Prime? I finally called them to get more info. I can't do an inside room due to claustrophobia issues and they were saying I would have to pay market rates for a balcony or suite with a 5% discount and only get the 500.00 value if I do a short or longer sailing or a holiday.

You're missing the point. If you don't get any offers other than the annual, you don't see anything better. Look I cruise a lot. Earn Prime by adding 200-300 points per trip. CR must not deem me worthy of anything more than 1 free trip a year, and free drinks. That's fine by me Edited July 6, 2022 by John&LaLa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can book now or book a week before but if not on s ship by 3.31.23 you lose that free cruise. You can upgrade cabin at casino rate too. Usually less than what is shown on royal website. Call the casino number to book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can upgrade to balcony at miminal cost. The freebie is for 2 passengers. Then both pay upgrade fare to balcony or whatever cabin you want. Avoid trade in, best to use for 7 night cruise. Call clubroyale number to book. You pay casino rate to upgrade not market rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
