AspiringCindy Posted July 12, 2023 #1 Share Posted July 12, 2023 I just returned from a 7 day cruise and accumulated enough Club royale points that now we have a $300 off certificate. When you click on offer, it gives a list of cruises that I guess it can be used in. However in the far right corner, there is a column that says next cruise Bonus. It lists interior on some and ocean view on thoers. Does that mean the $300 off must be used on that category?...or is that column for something in addition to the $300 off? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIA Next cruise bonus is if you booked another cruise while on board you would get that also. My DS25 got $500 off certificate but if he booked Next Cruise while still on board he would get a Balcony on the Wonder and $500 free play. (That was one of the many choices he had) Yep, he booked it while we were still on board. 🙂 Edited July 12, 2023 by TYMAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Next Cruise agents onboard would not touch any of my Casino $ off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You book a next cruise booking while on board, make the small deposit, then when you're back at shore you call the casino folks and give them the info. You're correct about the NC agents not touching casino comps, but they do realize that you'll use your certs for the cruise you're booking on board.

Thanks for the clarification as that was my understanding. Also, may be eligible for the on board booking bonus of $100 OBC for a 7 niter. 😀One thing that disappointed me was that any annual free cruise is limited to a 7 day or less. Last year, I was able to book an 8 niter Anthem oceanview balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait!...are you telling me he would have had a free 3Night cruise for free if we booked it before we departed? We didn't get the points until a few days ago.

So, the name of the game is to keep checking your points during the week with the Casino Host. Then check out the offers. My DS liked the 7 night Wonder so he played till he got the 4000 points. Of course he kept playing after that cause he was winning. 😁 Then, you book that cruise with Next Cruise, make the small deposit, then call the Casino folks once you get back home and give them your offer number and reservation number. Done! We always book a time with Next Cruise on the first day for the last day. Times book up more toward the middle to end of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was able to call them 2 weeks ago, and explain the situation that we had no idea about checking our account. We were able to secure a 4 night cruise for free on Navigator. Thanks for the heads up! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
