Diane Rose Posted May 23, 2023 #1 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Just noticed on our cruise the Upgrade for classic to premium has been discounted 5%. We are Elite Plus. Do I get a better price if I call Captain's Club? Diane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you rep can't do it, call Captain's Club. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flaca0604 Posted May 24, 2023 #3 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Elite and Elite Plus get a 15% discount on premium drink package upgrade. You must call to get the discount - 1-800-722-5941. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisinfly Posted May 24, 2023 #5 Share Posted May 24, 2023 If you call, you should be able to get your Captain's Club discount on top of the current cruise planner discount. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I received the current cruise planner discount in addition to my captain's club discount. I did have to call in though. Makes sense that they do this, otherwise it would eliminate this benefit for the captain's club. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just read in another post that they were denied - only one discount type allowed, no stacking. I think you got lucky. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heatherb1958 Posted May 24, 2023 #9 Share Posted May 24, 2023 I noticed it too for our forthcoming Silhouette cruise but we have OBC so will use that to upgrade one drink at a time 😆. Might actually work out cheaper 😀 😉. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you got lucky. I wonder if it depends on who you get on the line. The Celebrity phone rep I was working with had to put me on hold for a few minutes, twice, to check on things. In the end, they did stack the discounts. It's disappointing to hear that it may not work for everyone. Eliminates another Captain's Club benefit if this is the case. Note I've been given inaccurate information by Cruise line phone reps on multiple occasions. I've even hung up, called again, and been given different answers by a different rep. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzyluvs2cruise Posted May 26, 2023 #11 Share Posted May 26, 2023 Booked a 6 nt all included cruise yesterday. I called today to upgrade the drink pkg and was told $15/day with 15% discount for loyalty status. Since cruise was in a group all included hadn't been added in yet. TA did that and I called back. Agent I got this time said: 1. $20 day plus 20% gratuity 2. 15% discount 3. and the kicker - will be charged for 7 days (cruise is 6 nights) I asked to speak to a Supervisor - agent put me on hold and spoke to Supervisor and relayed that yes it was $20/day and 20% gratuity. No mention of 7 days until I asked what Supervisor said about that - then agent said "in this case it's 6 as the cruise is 6 nights". Vent over and I'll call back again..........

SSAtlantic Posted May 26, 2023 #12 Share Posted May 26, 2023 Has anyone been successful in upgrading just one of you? I was able to do this twice this year, but tried today and was told no. Just wondering if it worth it to keep trying? There are 3 of us traveling, so it would be pricey to upgrade all 3 and 2 won’t really benefit.

The exceptions are underage or documented reasons i.e. pregnancy, recovering alcoholic etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
