RCI Casino points

Does anyone know if  you can combine points, Lets say husband and wife. My wife is prime with 4200 pt, I'm still choice with about 2000. Also shouldn't she get a "free" cruise. She became prime 7/2023, but still no offers for a free cruise just $ off. Thanks for any info.

She will get her free Prime cruise after the current evaluation period ends on March 31st. The offer code typically shows up on the Club Royale site around the second week in April. 

 

Any instant reward offers earned on a particular cruise are tied to the points earned on that cruise. It doesn't take into account your current tier status. You typically get dollars off up to 1200 points earned.

 

Mail offers lately have been for a complimentary room for two (sometimes for one with a discounted rate for two). Sometimes the room is only a guarantee. The type of offer and cabin category seems to vary with how much you've been playing.

 

You can't combine points after they are earned, but two people can play on the same account at the same time to earn points on one account. This is advantageous when one person has already made it to Prime and wants to help the other get to Prime. Talk to the casino host at the beginning of the cruise to get an additional card for use in the casino.

Thank you, this might work out perfectly, I have a cruise in the last week of March and I'm trying to get to prime before the end of the  casino calendar year, I believe that's April 1.

RCCL.... We are the same (wife)prime &  me choice. Just did a B2B 9 day and 5 day. We tried to use all 4 certificates (2 of mine and 2 wifes) from both cruises to book a new one... no luck. We were only able to use the 2 from 1 cruise...not both. It is BS as far as I'm concerned.

The instant rewards certificate terms state that you are only permitted to combine certificates earned on the same ship and sail date. You have two sailings, so you should have been able to combine the two earned on your 9-day cruise for one free cruise, and the two earned on your 5-day cruise for another free cruise. Did you and your wife each have two certificates posted to your Club Royale account after you got home?

Yes, we were hoping to be able to use them all but no luck. Their "free" cruises are not good cruises. They have been sending us free ones for years but never seem to interest us. We made use of the 2 certificates we were able to use.

That's unfortunate as we have both been prime for several years and have had some great cruises that were casino comps.      

 

Are you aware that if you receive an offer an interior cabin you are able to upgrade your cabin.   Their upgrade rates are usually much better than what you see on their website.    

We have had some great casino royale phone reps.   One of our most recent casino bookings the difference for a balcony to a Junior Suite was $11.   No brainer there.   

 

Plus the free cocktails in the casino are an awesome benefit as well as 30% off internet for prime members.
