Saturngrl Posted July 21, 2022 #1 Share Posted July 21, 2022 My DH and I will achieve Elite Status in the Celebrity Captain's Club on or before our February 2023 cruise. We just booked an April 2023 cruise on Independence of the Seas. Question: We are Emerald on RC at the time of booking...will that move us to Diamond for IOS in April, or are we stuck with Emerald for this cruise?

You will have matching perks of a Diamond on your Indy cruise...but won't be actually Diamond until you reach the 80 point level with RCI. So if you have made 80 points during your Indy cruise...you won't be officially Diamond until your next RCI cruise following that. Points on both lines have to be earned on the separate lines. Perks match occurs with Elite to Diamond...but no further up on status until points made on each. For example: I am Pinnacle on RCI...but will only be perks of an Elite member on Celebrity until I earn the points actually on Celebrity to elevate status.

After you hit Elite on Celebrity you need to call Royal and get them to match your status to Diamond, it will not happen automatically 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe one day when we cruise without the kids. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed have Captain's number ready to go and anxious to use it.... 😉 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a while, so maybe there was a way to link them at the time. Obviously if you don't have a an account with the respective loyalty program, you would first need to get an account set up.

Sadly they left. 😞 Not sure if a Millennium class would fit in Baltimore. But did do a Panama Canal, TA, Bermuda, and a Coastal cruise on Millennium class. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to do either Alaska or Australia on Celebrity. Though I am still a fan of the Radiance ladies in Alaska. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturngrl Posted July 21, 2022 Author #13 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Thank you all! I will definitely contact RC once I achieve Elite on Celebrity to upgrade me to Diamond for our RC cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaniDanielle Posted July 21, 2022 #14 Share Posted July 21, 2022 I am pretty sure it was automatically linked. You will enjoy Celebrity Elite. We have only sailed Summit but liked it. The elite perks are a nice extra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what happened with us also. We are finally going on our first cruise with Celebrity and it already shows that we are Elite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another_Critic Posted July 21, 2022 #16 Share Posted July 21, 2022 (edited) I need to get to Elite Plus / Discoverer Plus (244 points to go) before Celebrity and Azamara unlink their programs. 🙂 Edit: Scratch that, only 242 points to go ... just got an email to earn another 20 Power Up Points (= 2 Captain's Club points).

Usually around the 14th of the following month. So July's power up points will post around August 14th. Has been my experience anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another data point: My daughter checked last night and her Captain's Club status does say Elite, so she was automatically upgraded once she reached Diamond on Royal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
