ChiGal1962 Posted December 14, 2023 #1 Share Posted December 14, 2023 I'm considering booking a sailing on the Odyssey transatlantic next spring. I have Elite status on Celebrity, which would match to Diamond on Royal. According to the benefit chart, there is some sort of discount on balcony rooms. But when I try to book on the RC site, it doesn't appear to recognize my status match. So do I need to call? I will also be traveling with my aunt, who does not have status on either line. I assume she does not benefit from my match, right? Like the daily drinks, wine discounts or internet time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twonpcb Posted December 14, 2023 #2 Share Posted December 14, 2023 You would benefit from a travel agent who specializes in cruising. Ours has been a blessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes a balcony discount is not applicable, depending on what other discounts are being applied. I would certainly call C&A and get their help with that. 800-526-9723 Correct: your aunt gets no perks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have Elite status on X and therefore Diamond status on Royal but whilst you have the STATUS you don't have the POINTS. The on-line booking system is looking at the C&A points to apply the discounts, but as you don't have the points it is not applying the discounts. But as I said, this is only my theory and others may know more. But whether right or not, best you contact Royal or use a good TA.
