But wouldn't they all be of the same ship?  Do you want 7 Serenades?

 

Trade material, or gifts.

 

They will mail them to us

 

And there will be a unique block given out as well, but probably only to those doing full trip

Easy fix.  Book another cruise that departs sometime before the Serenade.😇

They give the blocks on your first cruise after you hit 140?

No.  Blocks are awarded on the cruises that you reach the milestone.  You would get the block on the sailing where you attained 140 points

Funny, that was in 2018 on Independence, same ship we'll be on in November.

We’ve never received one.  Our first block should have been on the Allure in 2021.

I have been "informed" that my block is on it's way.  Since January 2023.  I may just ask when I board in 3 weeks on the Grandeur if they have any.

Posters who did not receive the vaunted bock on the cruise when the hit 140 did you have luck getting it later?

Not yet, we’ve done 5 since.  DW would like the Allure one, it’s her favourite ship (Mamma Mia).

Have you called C&A to request it?  Another ship will not look back to see that you never received it.  C&A will send you the Allure block

You have to call C&A to request it.  Another ship will not issue you one after the fact.

Whenever I am about to qualify for a new block, I book a cruise on a ship that I don't already have that ship. I am still waiting for my Jan. 2023 block for hitting 350.

Some are getting 7

Depending on the total points going in, some could get 8😇

[temple1]

I called C&A, the rep said I would receive it on my next cruise.

My in laws received their 1st block onboard Wonder yesterday. I asked if it was old or new, they haven’t opened the box yet. 🤣

We were due 2 (due for over a year now), and had lost all faith after talking to several C&A reps.  That changed today, as we received one of them...Harmony.  It is in color, and looks pretty sharp to me.

I just opened it. It’s the old style.
