That is what RCCL does and we really enjoy that perk. It would tip the scales to a full suite for us! As posted, yes. It is two cruise credits per person. If you are a single in a full suite you receive three cruise credits. It takes 15 cruise credits or 150 days to reach elite status. Once reached there is almost no benefit. If you are a first time Princess customer, or have elite loyalty status, sailing in a full suite, cruise credits and loyalty status have basically no meaning or benefit. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think mini bars and free laundry aren’t great perks ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has absolutely no suite perks except for being able to dine in the Reserved Class dining room. There is also priority boarding in the CC ( reserve) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer was yes, they are looking into adding a concierge to the Grand class ships.

They are only announced when you sit down for dinner. You will be handed a menu and then told what h the he extra entree is for that night. On sea days you may be able to talk to the manager at lunch and get early information 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The concierge on the Discovery last moth told us he believed it would eventually be rolled out but no one really knew more but it would not include a suite lounge just someone you can call to get help with reservations etc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For my thinking, I don't value a mini-suite enough to pay for the upcharge. But the presence of the Club Class dining changes that perception- for us. One less thing to worry about.

YMMV. just did a price comparison on our next cruise ....at a cost of £100/day for the two of us to not wait in line to be served the same food as other diners is not good value for us. If I was prepared to spend another £100 per day.....we could eat in specialty every evening and still have £40 per day for other spending.

No wait dining for the same menu is not worth the up cost (just checked £100 per day for the two of us) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
